CANADA ON THE PP!

 

[calder]

Everyone who dissed the "antique gold" jerseys = owned. Those are fucking sweet!

Good pace, kinda so-so beginning. Everyone's skating well, but no real flow by either team. Nice pop for Mario laying the shoulder down.

 

[BigJonsson]

There we go

Lemieux > all

 

[Kon Tiki]

GOOOOOOOOALLLL!

About time.

 

[BigJonsson]

1-0 CANADA!

 

[BigJonsson]

OMG WHAT A CHANCE THAT WAS

 

[calder]

Woot. Still lack of finish with all the plays

WOW Sakic and Iggy almost scored a beauty, but Sakics move was so late that there was no room. Great move though, holy shit.


And BigJon, your avatar saddened me with it's bad quality.

 

[Kon Tiki]

I was sure that it was going to be 2-0. :|

 

[BigJonsson]

Haha Brett Hull got booed when he touched the puck

 

[BigJonsson]

Woot. Still lack of finish with all the plays

Haha, it was a rush search for it

 

[calder]

Whoa, found a better iggy avatar. If anyone, say a Flames fan inexplicably using a Finn (even the noblest, greatest Finn of all time) as an avatar during international competition, wants to use my old Iggy one here it is.

 

[BigJonsson]

Greatest Finn = TEEMU SELLANE!

 

[BigJonsson]

JOOOOOEEEE SAKIC

 

[calder]

YEah it's probably Teemu.

Haha, deja vu. PP, Sakic at the blueline, takes a screened wrister and scores just like Salt Lake

 

[Socreges]

I think Sakic sensed the new avatar.

 

[dem]

Canada looking real good...


Sakic > *

 

[calder]

I love Doan. If he ragdolled Tkachuk a million Jets fans would jizz in their pants at the karmic perfection of it.

Oh, and when I'm watching teh game I get nervous and resize images, if anyone's interested here's one of Sakic. Find me a pic and I'll see what I can do, but I'm just hosting them at photobucket since my shaw webspace is all full.

 

[BigJonsson]

WHAT
A
SAVE

 

[calder]

AHAHAHAH Keith thinks he scored. Sorry jackass!

 

[dem]

:lol

 

[BigJonsson]

OMG THE PRIME MINISTER

And he's sitting with the people, you don't see many world leaders doing that


Fuck, 2-1

 

[bishoptl]

stupid work interfering with my hockey watching

 

[dem]

OH NO

PM's FAULT

 

[calder]

DAMMIT MARTIN JINXED US. Lame political gladhanding + weak hockey commentary + guy who can't sing O Canada in english or french = bad karma for Team Canada.

 

[dem]

Momentum SHIFTED

god dammit

USA is going to score

 

[calder]

Yeah, the last 10 minutes of this game have sure sucked. As lucky as the US was to not be down 5-0 through the first 5 minutes of the second period Canada's lucky the scores not 2-2 now.

 

[calder]

OMG THAT WAS SO OFFSIDES. Thank god Broddy saved it, or else I'd be making an official protest to the IOC and demanding a duplicate gold medal for my gymnast cuz that looked like a shitty call.

 

[BigJonsson]

FIIIIIGHT

 

[calder]

Somebody's got to take a major and throw some punches at Konowalchuk and whoever that was that bumped Brodeur the second time after the whistle. Shit that it's Niedermayer out there instead of Reghry

MARIO STEPPED IN and shoved whathisname out of the crease! +1 Mario!

 

[dem]

All this fighting is just gunna fire up the yanks more...

Fun to watch though.

 

[dem]

:lol @ mario

 

[Kon Tiki]

Call offside on canada when it was not.

Did not call offside on an obvious US offside.

Dont call roughing on goalie.

wth.

Mario.

 

[dem]

Is there like.. no Americans watching this?? This is such a onesided thread. Even Sweden has some fans in here!

 

[BigJonsson]

Jovo is getting an MRI

uh oh

 

[boo7z]

this game is awesome. it is like an all star game except the players have no quams about betting the living piss out of each other.

 

[Mike Works]

stupid work interfering with my hockey watching

No fucking kidding

 

[dem]

One more goal and this one would be in the bag....
Big Joe almost had one.

 

[dem]

Wheres the hitting....
Come on boys!

 

[dem]

Ryan Smyth... YOURE OUT OF MY LINEUP!!

DUMP not carry... DUMP

 

[dem]

VICTORY for Canada

 

[BigJonsson]

OH CANADA

 

[Mike Works]

bigd, if you're going to make a post every 10 fucking seconds, just edit your first one

also, it was fun watching the home team win an important game in the Corel Center for once

 

[Tabris]

Haha, Canada is going to dominate this year!

 

[dem]

There was MINUTES between my posts... MINUTES

what does it matter anyway

 

[Gregory]

Great game. USA SUCKED during the first period but did much better in the second and third.

Man does it suck to watch american broadcasts here in Europe though, is it because NTSC signals are being decoded to PAL or something? Crap, bland colours and the framerate seems a little odd, making a slight ghosting effect during movement.

The games over here looks a hell of a lot better on TV, thats for sure.

 

[Pochacco]

GO CAAAANAAADDAAAA!
OUR HOME AND NATIVE LAND....

 

[SystemShark]

Great game. Esche was a farking wall.

Vintage jersey's looked great. I may have to pick an Iginla one up. And calder, thanks.

 

[yodathesoda]

Random thoughts from the game:
New Jerseys do look great......... if we were German
Jovos out which is good now we don't have to worry so much about 2 on 1s and break-aways
Nice job Mario, I was skeptic but now am a believer
USA didn't looks as old as I thought they would
I really missed hockey and just watching this game made me realize how much I'm gonna miss it this year.

 

[Socreges]

Jovos out which is good now we don't have to worry so much about 2 on 1s and break-aways

Actually, he looked better tonight before going down.

I don't think he trained very much during the summer. He's had such a poor start and now he strains his ACL.

 

[Solid]

Wee Canada!

Sweden-Czech Republ. at 7PM in Globen, Sweden. My bet is 3-1
