reevesr1 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Used to pull for Canada in the world Juniors. Not so much anymore. Their fans annoy me. Quote

reevesr1 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Thanks for the laugh Birchy. Hope you guys get your asses kicked tomorrow, I need another laugh. Problem is, if recent history is a guide, I'm unlikely to be laughing anytime soon. Quote
birchy Posted January 3, 2009 Author Posted January 3, 2009 Figured you'd like that one.. I don't know man.. the Russians are never pushovers! Quote
Golfman09 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Slovaks played it tough.....that Goalie is ridiculous! Nice to see a large effort like that get a win.....even though I would have like to see the US play Canada in the final. That game the other night was a blast to watch. Quote
beedhead Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Should be one hell of a game this eve....Cant wait!...Too bad the U.S. wont be in the final... ....They might have done some more of that fancy stick work from the bench when the opposition scores.... Cheers...Jeff.. Quote
adc Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 They're doing it again!!..........Perhaps Canada should start to worry about playing them tomorrow!! :) Quote

maxwell Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 them russians jsut wont go away! awsome game back and forth tit for tat but COME ON BOYS! Quote
LynnF Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 The Canadians are insane. That was sick - 5 seconds left and they pull it out. This is real hockey - about as good as it gets. For such a crap game, the ending sure is good. You gotta believe OT is gonna be kickin'. Quote
LynnF Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 I don't think I can stand a shootout....I might have to leave the room LOL Quote
LynnF Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 I was just gonna say something about how the outcome of a game that would send a team to the finals should not be decided by a shootout and how much I hate the shootout and how it's BS. But I won't now LOL. Canada's gonna kick Sweden's ass Monday night. The gold is theirs. Quote
rusty Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Canada didn't deserve that win...so many PPs in the second and they looked as anemic as the Oilers. Bah! What an absolutely amazing finish though...my voice is hoarse from screaming and I'm home alone! Quote
maxwell Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 yea i agree russ.. we werent 100% but it was one hell of a game! Quote
beedhead Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Hate shoot outs....But its a win.....Canada wasn't up to par as far as I was concerned.....Thought it was all over but the cryin in the last 15 secs....WOOO HOOO... Cheers...Jeff.. Quote
LynnF Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 It really wasn't a great game until the end. But I gotta admit, if I had a choice between watching that or watching and NHL game, I'd pick Juniors anyday. The Canadian team embodies what hockey is all about in Canad and, what Canada is all about. They're strong and proud and some of the most gifted players I've ever watched play. There's a couple of Gretzky's on that team....I can't wait to watch them progress into the NHL. Quote
beedhead Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 For sure Lynn....These guys play hard!!!....They want to make it to the NHL...So they give it all they got!!!...I played AAA hockey all my young life and made it as far as a few Exibition games in the WHL...I know what the intenity is all about when it comes to playing to go to the next level....Its alot of fun, and man oh man does a guy dig deep for the little extra that ya never thought ya had...But thats what makes the diff!!....Woo hoo Canada.... Cheers...Jeff.. Quote
Hawgstoppah Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 My renter downstairs phoned up to see if we were ok , rofl... That 5 seconds left goal... wow! Quote
darrinhurst Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Yep, great game! What a play by Eberle to tie it up. Man, those kids are gooooooooooood. Quote
