kipwinger 8,518 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 You Americans can have the women's gold we will take the one that matters Wow, apparently people are still wildly sexist in Canada. Tell me why men's activities "matter" more than women's again? Sexist and distinctly un-Canadian-like. So women's hockey doesn't matter, eh? Someone beat me to it.

He's not implying that, but there really is no competition in Women's Hockey, it comes down to USA and Canada every time. Women's Hockey just doesn't matter as much as the Men's for most Canadians, that's the reality. We will cheer them on, but people don't drop everything like they do for the Men. Not sure if USA feels the same however. Edited February 20, 2014 by darkmanx 2 marcaractac and Z Winged Dangler reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Canada wins you guys will certainly matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stillwater 186 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 He can imply what he wants. The Americans can make all the generalizations they like. This game is tied, anything to push that truth to the back-burner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember all the noise the Canadians made after they won in Vancouver in women's hockey. It was a big flipping deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fonzarelli 73 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 How many of you noticed how the linesman looked back at the blue line and then skated right into the Canadian defensemen? That almost led to The US getting the clincher. That was pretty dirty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,518 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 I'm at work so I can't watch this game, are any of the members of either men's team there to cheer on the women's teams? I think it would be really cool if the guys showed up for a little solidarity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They haven't shown any. I would hope at least Kessel is there, but all the team would be better. 1 kipwinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marcaractac 3,962 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 Looks like these teams are competing pretty well to me... When it comes to Canada vs USA, yes. But when either of those teams play anyone else, it is quite one sided. But Canada vs USA in women's hockey is always a fantastic game. I'll admit, I get a lot more invested in the men's hockey. Not because I am sexist, but it's because it's mostly NHL players. It makes the men's tournament more special for that reason. If it were all amateurs in Men's Olympic hockey like it used to be, I wouldn't be as invested in it. I think that's all really anyone is getting at when talking about the Men's hockey here. How many of you noticed how the linesman looked back at the blue line and then skated right into the Canadian defensemen? That almost led to The US getting the clincher. That was pretty dirty. I wouldn't say that was intentional. Would have been very unfortunate and a bad way to lose had thta puck gone in though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Re-read my original post, I clearly stated that I'm at work and not watching the game. Which is why I asked if the guys were there to cheer on the women's teams. I legitimately wanted to know because I can't see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I certainly wouldn't have posted something as idiotic and insulting to a Country as you did. Bars are full in this Country watching this game. It's extremely important to Canadians.
