Technical issues with Glen Healy's mic! There is a god!!!

And no Koivu's

Saku's no biggie, but Mikku is another huge loss.

What do you mean "Saku's no biggie"? How is Selanne suppose to perform optimally without his little bubber there with him?

I can almost hear him now, "Alright Team Canada, we don't have as much firepower as we used to. We're gotta have to get heavier on the puck and grind out a win".

edit: The Beatles reference was awesome though.

Quiet; Coach's Corner is on!

Babcock seems like he's having a blast

[Dabura 12,206]

Talking about how Crosby has no room and it's really tough for him to do anything. I feel like that's kinda weak, because as soon as he scores, it'll be a never-ending chorus of "How do you stop Crosby? You pray. Really, that's all you can do. He's so skilled, so talented, he sees the ice so well..."

That's terrible footwear for ball hockey.

Nice. Socks and sandles.

Followed by the goal he scored and then the golden goal from every angle possible, not showing all the work Iginla did to lead up to it. I mean, yay Crosby!

He looks so happy. I'm afraid this is a precursor to a murder spree.

[cusimano_brothers 1,655]

Damn, Glenn Healy is back.

[rrasco 1,312]

So I was thinking, does anyone think Shattenkirk will ever be captain, so people can refer to him as Captain Kirk? Would it be appropriate none the less?

gooo Canada do it for gold

Finns are really missing their wounded.

Great pass and pressure from Sharp. Pietrangelo forgot to aim.

[cusimano_brothers 1,655]

Pietrangelo did a "Sammy".

Nothing to note about the play...just synchronized gum chewing. What a scrub Healy is.

[joesuffP 1,746]

Hate to say it but I think Canada should focus on some shots from the point

[Dabura 12,206]

Edzo made a good point: you can't really forecheck with two forwards on this big ice.

[joesuffP 1,746]

Man wings really could have used that J Bouwmeester guy

Finns are playing very good, dedicated D. Canada will have to try something else other than throwing it from the corner at the net. Rask won't let crap like that in. The Pietrangelo chance was good, but didn't convert unfortunately. They gotta open it up and get a guy in the slot for a one-timer.

[Dabura 12,206]

Finns looking slow, gassed. C'mon! I want an upset!

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

Carter had that if he held on a half second longer to go right around Rask. His D were occupied.

Let's just get the puck to Doughty and let him do the rest.
