That´s not a surprise, ´northern´ movies are unique. Girl.. is originally swedish novel and only swedish/scandinavians are able to capture it´s intended atmosphere. Anyway congrats to Can fans, .. well, at least Zadina 2G, I´m really curious about his position on upcomming draft. Let´s have a bronze. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) I saw that and got pretty annoyed, then saw that Andersson was crying. Just burning passion and disappointment. At least a fan got a silver medal tho, it's not like he chucked it, basically tossed it to a dude in the crowd. Probably made his day lol. IIHF may not take too kindly to that though.

That medal was returned. After getting it back he was asked what he would do with it. Answer was "Put it in a drawer. I got a silver medal not long ago, it's been sitting in a drawer somewhere and I've never looked at it. It's just not what I want." I have bunch of medals from my youth, mostly gold/1st but some silver/2nd place (no not world cup caliber ones, but go for the point). I never showed any of them on a shelf or something just seemed lame (kept them in a plastic bag lol), but the silver ones I didn't even care about recieving, they were just a testament to failure. Me likey. We should try to get this kid somehow. Edited January 8, 2018 by Jacksoni Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Individuals who win bronze are resoundingly more satisfied with their performance than silver winners. The bronze winners are just happy to even make the playoffs...

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted January 10, 2018 Interesting post-WJC period for some medal winners... being traded; three that I know of: Team USA (Max Jones) and Team Canada (Robert Thomas and Taylor Raddysh). Re: Following the Formenton goal, making it 3-1 in the Final. I hope Rasmus Dahlin killed that rat that he thought he saw on the top of the dasher board. That was quite a hissy fit he threw.
