Who will win the Hockey World Cup

Recommended Posts

What a great game! What a performance by Luongo to come in and steal one for Canada. I thought the Czechs were the better team overall. Definitely one of the most exciting nailbiters I've watched.

does ANYONE outside of Canada and few northern US states care?



Fans of the great game of hockey care. If you don't care, no problem. There's plenty of other useless threads for you to post whore in. But do us a favor and waste some time in there instead of in here.

The Czechs played a great game. But Canada takes on Finland for all of the marbles this Tuesday evening. Oh and you know what they say. "A great goalie can beat a good team any day".

Well 57% of us were right (or was that got lucky) and 15% couldn't give a rats ass about hockey. :S

I'm happy we (my fellow Canucks) won, we got to see some good hockey. But something was missing this time around (emotionally ... at least for me being in the US of A which did a piss poor job of covering the tournament). I don't know if it was the pending lock out, the fact that Canada does not have a strong rivalry with Finland the way we have one with Russia, the USA and even the Czechs. That I'm now a skydiver and BASE jumper (when I wasn't one during the last Olympics) or something else? Maybe it's just like in '91 when we were expected to win as I felt kind of empty then as well. But '72, '76, '81 (we got pummeled), '84, '87, '96 (we lost this one), '98 (stupid way to end a game) and '02 meant way more to me than '04. :)

I think it was the lock out. Fuck the NHL if they don't want to play. After 4 years as a Colorado Avalanche season ticket holder (Remster can attest to the good seats I used to have), I'm done and good riddance I saw. Let's start watching some college games. >:(
