rrasco 1,312 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 Well congrats Canada. As much as it pains me to say that, we didn't play hard-nosed enough and Canada was all over us. Do we really have to keep Beiber? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 Healy was the color commentator. Hughson was doing play by play Don't know the name their is one more guy Healy is like the Pierre on ice commentating When Marleau took that penalty so Pavelski didn't break in alone and get the pass Healy is saying just let that guy go by you blah blah and Simpson called him out on his stupidity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do we really have to keep Beiber? No, I suggested yesterday that winner would be the one to shoot him into space. George Malik upped the ante by saying into the sun.

Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 BTW, after this showing, USA doesn't deserve the Bronze...not that I think they'll beat The Fins. Just give them a participation pin...who cares about a Bronze... USA played hard man, give them credit. It was a 1 goal game and competitive to the end.

Wheelchairsuperhero 1,453 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 Good game, really enjoyed watching. At least the Swedes made the gold medal game so I can at least cheer for a Wings win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 What a game! It was tons of fun watching the defensive battle. Hate Healy though... he's worse than pierre by far. He was whining about the penalties against Canada, even though all the penalties were legit for both sides. Good game USA, that should have been for gold. The only penalty that wasn't legit was on Getzlaf. No contact was made, Kane just threw his head back to goat a call. Other than that, a tight battle. I finish working now Good game, really enjoyed watching. At least the Swedes made the gold medal game so I can at least cheer for a Wings win I'm happy either way. Canada or Wings.... I love Sweden regardless of who they play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just give them a participation pin...who cares about a Bronze... I'm not sure how losing 1 - 0 to the best team (on paper) is a disappointing showing. One different bounce in 1st and the game could've been entirely different. Either way good game and I think Canada deserved the win.

stillwater 186 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 Honestly, the best part of the Canadian march thus far is the lack of a goaltending controversy. There was probably more discussion about goaltending pre-tournament than anything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlashyG 1,799 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 It was a great game, and until that final horn blew I was convinced USA was going to tie it. Really impressed by Carlson and Quick in todays game. Hope you guys take the photoshops in good fun...I'll happily do more at Canada's expense vs Sweden. 4 Red Crazy, dropkickshanahans, Z Winged Dangler and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 As a neutral observer I've loved both games for different reasons today. Systematically wise the first game was as good as it gets, Canada - USA was back and forth overshadowed by an Allstar canadian defense and superb goaltending from Jonathan Quick. Can't believe I'm defending a Blackhawk here but Kanes Grandpa passed away not long before the Olympics so huge kudos to him for every trying to play I know, I would not have been able to do so. MVPs SWE - FIN Karlson, Godqvist CAN - USA Quick, Benn (you ******* monster), Kessel and I hate to say it but.....Crosby the guy worked his tails off every shift and created chances from nowhere. Under der the radar that Carlson kid best defender after Suter on tema US Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rrasco 1,312 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 Kane didn't get a penalty in the game. Maybe it was Kessel. In all fairness, I went to a bar at lunch so I can't be held accountable for my short term memory loss. I just remember a cheap hooking call somewhere in there. It didn't matter in the end, just saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Euro_Twins 4,475 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 So......After Canada gets whipped in their national sport today, how long will it take them to recover? Today would be a good day to buy stock in Canadian beer company's. Lots of drowning of sorrows later today! GO USA!!!!!!!! Sunday will be an even better day for beer companies when we win gold 2 Z Winged Dangler and DatsyukianDekes reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
