I know Crosby is super talented and picking at a 1 game sample size is total ass but I found it pretty unbelievable that in an elimination game Crosby + Kunitz were fucking outchanced by Latvia https://twitter.com/fearthefin/statu...633344/photo/1 especially if I recall correctly it was mostly some combination of Marleau-Toews-Carter/Bergeron taking D zone faceoffs when Latvia was pressing to tie it up.

Tavares done for the season with a torn mcl

fuck

Damn........ out for the season. Not good news.

If the NHL and owners decide not to have players participate in future Olympics, it would open up a can of worms. Would the KHL follow suit? I don't follow the KHL so have no idea what calibre of players they have. Pretty sure all teams would be affected greatly without NHL players, but at the same time, that's what the Olympics were supposed to be (prior to 70's). In modern times, it's not possible for athletes to compete without sponsorship or compensation.

I wonder if any NHL players have it in their contracts, that they have the option to play in an Olympic tourney.

Good point, and an interesting one, but that means the NHL and the NHPLA has no power over the players. Not sure if any GM would agree to that.

Check wheres your work IP, some bigger companies re-routes their internet!

Just saw interview with Hayley Wickenheiser during first intermission.

The Amuricans had Canadian flag on the floor of their dressing room. FU, American shitheads...........

Hayley came back with, "Do you want us to sign it?" Gotta love the spirit. Taking another country's flag and using it as a rug. Fuck YOU damn ugly american........ classless act.

Time to burn the star mangled banner, I say. Fight fire with fire.

sonick 02-20-2014 08:57 AM

^ didn't they do the flag on the floor thing last olympics as well? Sounds familiar...

5 on 3.... best chance to tie it right now.

dbaz 02-20-2014 09:21 AM

Kevin Dineen wonders why he got fired ...

MG1 02-20-2014 09:26 AM

Wow, the Canadian team is outgunned, outplayed and outsmarted. So Canuckish..........

Oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles. Maybe they go super saiyan in the third.

I always wondered about that.
Even in NHL, I always see teams play "keep away" with a delayed call.
I guess they rather have a 6 on 4 (with the goalie pulled) ?

I would rather just take the longer 5 on 3 easily.
