RedWang 422 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 I'd prefer Crosby crying his eyes out because he doesn't have a medal. Ha even better, notice the general theme among sid haters is that he is perpetually crying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Euro_Twins 4,475 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 Sexist and distinctly un-Canadian-like. So women's hockey doesn't matter, eh? Not sexist, they don't even allow hitting, I don't care to watch it if they aren't going to allow the women the same rules the men have, I don't find it entertaining to watch when every brush up is a penalty.

Smite 399 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 I am Canadian and for the first time, I actually feel bad for the US team. in 2010 it was easy not to feel bad after hearing the US team placed a Canadian flag in the middle of the dressing room to walk over before going on and coming off the ice. I do not know who came up with that idea but it was not very smart. 4 years later and water under the bridge we meet again. Unlike the round robin game I think the US team played significantly better and deserved this win. But as Don Cherry has said in the past the hockey gods were in Canada's corner. The empty net post to surviving the first minute of OT (how did that puck did not go in?) So as a typical Canadian, Sorry Eh. See you again in 4 years. 2 stillwater and wingsfan4795 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Euro_Twins 4,475 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 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. Thank you. I'm a fairly regular poster here and I think I'm a fairly level headed and open minded person, so for people to start calling me sexist because I don't enjoy women's hockey is nonsensical. People should know better by now, I hope this is just Olympic tensions built up and not what people actually believe. 2 DatsyukianDekes and Z Winged Dangler reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) Don't know about Womens hockey but in terms of Women I think Curling (that Russian team ) and Figure Skating (Tessa ) are way more interesting for obvious reasons. As for tomorrow I'm freaking pumped two superb rivalries between the top 4 hockeynations it doesn't get better than that. To best honest I'm getting more and more the feeling the US fans are REALLY underestimating the goliath that Canada is not sure if that's a smart thing to do.

Smite 399 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 Small correction ... I think that was 2002 in Salt Lake City. Utah ... go figure. You are correct.... sorry about that. Something bothered me about that game, maybe it was the Canadian media trying to stir it up by posting the women drinking beer and smoking cigars on the ice after all the fans left.... and that has absolutely nothing to do with the US Team. Here's to tomorrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Z Winged Dangler 2,082 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. You keep bringing the same thing up....while we're ALL working. Grasping at straws are we? I watched bits and pieces of the game and snuck out for OT. Tomorrow on the other hand, the bar opens at noon at the mess and they're getting all the tv's and maybe projectors and a pizza party going for the Canada/USA mens game. So if anyone wants to invade Canada, tomorrow's as good a time as any, cause we're all watching the game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
