Canada sucks, USA! USA!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Yeah.

As others have said, They root for the players of their NHL team to do well. As do I. I am rooting for a Canada vs USA final. I am quite obviously rooting for the US to lose. Badly.

Canada sucks

That feed from Kaner to Pavelski on the PP was other-worldly. He had a sick pass to him again on the next shift.

I hope to see Parise - Pavelski - Kane together.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I don't know if I'll be getting up for tomorrows game. Today killed me. I was up at 4:30 and then was in and out of sleep all day long. I'm still exhausted and it's only 9:30pm.

Luckily I'll be out East for the more meaningful games and not have to get up so brutally early!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Sick second goal by Kessel off a great dish from JVR

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Yes it was ^^
This game has strange feel to it

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Ok. Feels good now!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Uh oh for Bonzo, Backes scores.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Just woke up, how our boys doing?

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Sounds like I missed a helluva game vs. Russia. I caught the end of the Russia/Slovakia game today. I really hope they (the Ruskies) bomb out hard and fast. I've never seen a bigger 'team' of individual efforts in my life. Everyone is trying to be the hero.

Looking forward to Canada vs. Finland, which starts shortly.


Edit: Credit where credit is due: USA is rooollllling right now.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

USA looks good
Russia looked pretty defeated today

Yes, OT! Just what we (USA) wanted!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

That sucked.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Hopefully the Kings bring back their scoring abilities to the NHL.

9 Olympic goals by Kings players so far!

3 is better than 4, but 1 woulda been nice.

Sweden gets Slovenia/Austria
USA gets Czech Republic/Slovakia
Canada gets Switzerland/Latvia
Finland gets Russia/Norway

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Can't remember do Olympics reseed?

USAs gold medal to lose if you ask me. Canada hasn't done anything to scare me yet and Sweden is too hurt. Granted anything can happen but I'm excited.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

according to bobby mac, they do not.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

The thing I love most about these games, is that it's an easy reminder that these guys are hockey players. They aren't Canucks, or Blues, or Kings, etc.

I've loved watching guys I'm "supposed" to hate. Kesler has been freakin' fantastic, Oshie has been a stud, Backes has been playing great hockey...etc...etc. I love this stuff.

Also, you guys in NY really need to give Ryan McDonagh more love. That guy is underrated beyond belief.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Who doesn't give him love?? All the Rangers fans love him and Girardi!!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

:thumbsup I always speak so highly of McDonagh. Love Girardi too.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'm not saying in this thread specifically, just the NYR fanbase in general.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Actually, he was yapping because Selanne tried to slew foot him.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

one thing, its scary to think canadas offense hasnt really done much yet, if they start clicking, look out.

im not sure if it is because Babcock is throwing them out there for 20 second shifts or because the lines aren't in sync yet. though i think they may have to do with each other.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I went to lunch with the lady and one of our friends today and my lady friend had on her Brown USA jersey. The waiter made a comment about it and then we all chimned in about hockey and he responded "wait, you're all hockey fans?" We laughed and said yes. The next time he came back he was still so shocked we were all hockey fans. He said "I never would believe someone if they said there was a table of 3 girls who all liked hockey!"

When we left we just laughed and made comments in how he really wouldnt believe if we told him Brown was our friend. I guess it was just a case of hockey fans in CA PLUS them being girls.

He was just such a tool though.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

When Kesler went to the locker room and it looked like he may have broke his hand my cousin sent me a text that said "that would suck if he broke his hand" and I responded with "...for about another week."

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Sucks Canada and the US could face each other in the semis instead of the gold medal game.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Only way they face in gold is if Austria or Slovenia upsets Sweden

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

i think the most discouraging thing for the US is how slovenia controlled the play on sunday for the end of the 1st period and half of the 2nd period. a better team pumps 1 or 2 goals in that time frame and then the US is in trouble. they can't have extended periods in their D zone against the top teams

I'd personally go with Reiner's or Cuthbert.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'd bang them on my fiancée too. Hockey players have some damn sexy significant others

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I love picking out the trophy wives and girlfriends when watching the Kings players leave games.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

They are just terrific as well. No need to pick one over the other.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Yeah but I'm kinda with Sarah on this one. Oshie's is very plastic looking. Can't say I would turn her down if she wanted me (lol) but the others don't look as fake..

So Russia wins today. Rads with a 3 point night. It is night there right now right? Maybe his crap game against the US woke him up. I wouldn't count them out yet. They are a dangerous team.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Quick starting for ya'll in the QF's

We're sticking with Price.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

They certainly looked better than they have in the second and third today, but they're gonna have to be better still if they really wanna win a medal. They may be good enough to get by the Fins, but I think they're gonna struggle. Ovechkin and Malkin both had noticeably bad games again. The Datsyuk line was fantastic, and the power play did look better (although it didn't score), but they're really gonna need the Malkin line to pick up some slack if they wanna get by the better teams.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Quick is no surprise. Price is a little. Not that he's a bad choice just they'd go with Lou. But probably people who thought the US would go with Miller at the start of the Olympics too.
Nice to see Datsyuk play well. Still worry about his leg.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

please let Solvenia beat Sweden. please. Please. Please.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Not that Quick is a bad choice by any stretch, but I still think Miller should have gotten the chance to be the guy first. Oh well, JQuick getting his chance to shine.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Predicting the Fins will beat the Ruskies.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

God, I hope so. Just to see Russia implode.

Rask shutout!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Wow Latvia up 2-0 on the Swiss.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Canada to face Latvia
USA gets Czech Republic

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

anoyone know what time the US game will be yet?

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Supposed to be at noon I think.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

yeah i was going to say, looks like the other games are already scheduled at 3:00 and 7:30.

ESPN shows Sweden playing Slovakia tomorrow even though they lost today, isn't that a mistake? It should be Slovenia right?

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Yup! Both USA and Canada play at noon. I'm almost tempted to watch the USA/CZE game because it should be a better game than CAN/LAT but I'm not a dirty traitor. Pretty sure I would be deported if caught. :lol

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

ESPN's coverage of hockey is pathetic.

I honestly don't know why I keep going back there, especially since they have spoiled almost every event for me that I haven't watched live. It seriously feels like they go out of their way to show results of events that haven't aired yet.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Ive been going to NHL.com for the schedule and results.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

got to put down a deposit for CBJ playoff tickets for a second year in a row - I believe that is called a streak!

now if only any of the games would end up being played...

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Slava Voynov just basically called Quick a cheater.

They're teammates on the L.A. Kings.

I'm sure that will go over well.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

On a flight this morning so I'll miss the game, have my Brown USA sweatshirt on though!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Let's go Finland... amiright?!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Teemu! Good stuff from Finland after Russia's goal.

No, he didn't.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

BOBROVSKY coming in.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

is this game being streamed on NBC?

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

So if Russia loses here, I gotta imagine facing Putin would make you shit your pants.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I was saying to a buddy here at work that the NHL'rs will be fine - too high profile to just off them. The KHL'rs on the other hand should be very worried. :lol

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'm worried about this game today. Everyone is expecting the US to win.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Certainly on paper it's a tougher match-up than the Canadians are facing - the Czechs are no push-overs. You're right to be worried (as am I somewhat) because it's win or go home now, only natural to have some concerns. I think by 3pm we'll be discussing CAN/USA semi-final though.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

i give the CR a slight chance to pull it off

if i'm a betting man, and i'm not, i say team USA pulls away in the 3rd, they roll 4 lines deep, too much for the czech's to handle i think

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Just realized the boss scheduled a meeting for 2pm today. Canada better have their game wrapped up by then...

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

tic tic tic, thats the sound of Putin loading his six shooter.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

anyone else using the NBC app to watch games? fucking sucks

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

working great here, babe.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Can't imagine the amount of sheer disappointment in Russia right now.

They never scared me at all once the tourney started. They don't know how to play as a team, and that is essential to success in the Olympics.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

after 6 days in Mexico, where I didn't get the channel showing the games, I am finally watching my first Olympic hockey today. Can't complain too much as wife and I had an amazing time.

Leave for work soon and will DVR game but it will be tough not to get spoiled by the results.

Russia should have started Bob. Big disappointment for the Russians, on home ice.

Finland/Sweden should be great.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

:lol that arena is so quiet

it kinda works on my iphone but the feed cuts out every 3-4 mins

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Ovie. Kovalchuk. Radulov. Malkin.

Team full of douches. Easily my least favorite squad there. LATER RUSSIA!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Team over talent dude. :thumbsup

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Painful interview with Ovie by Eliot Friedman, but he did say that Ovie was the only one on the team who who stop to talk to media.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Russia is pathetic. I still have my predictions all set.

Gold- Canada
Silver- Sweden
Bronze- USA

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

One awesome guy on that team though...

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

i got 2-3 bars of 4G in the office and it's been a steady stream of tears from russia.
