Had the privilege of attending the Spengler Cup one time, it rates right up there as one of my greatest hockey fandom experiences. I would highly recommend it anybody who has yet to spend Christmas and New Year in Davos.

congrats Team Canada. entertaining game.
 
Celebrations were a treat with all the players families coming onto the ice. A bunch of babies and young kids in Canada jerseys. The joy on the players from their win and their families. Awesome.
 
Congratulations to Team Canada. My Lugano played a good game but ultimately came up short, nothing to be ashamed of. :)
 
KHL teams really dont give a flying **** about the tourney. If Jokerit played like it was KHL play-offs no team would stand a chance.

What an ignorant and childish thing to say.
Try to watch some games first, I even think Davos and Lugano could compete in the KHL. And I really hope you were joking about Riga, because that's simply a lie.

Nope. The players and head coach of Jokerit said that they are just having fun. Meaning that the tournament is meaningless. Means that they lose on purpose and avoiding injuries. Jokerit went to Spengler just because KHL plays on christmas so Jokerit avoided away games in Siberia. They took families to davos and spent christmas there.

Stupid tournament.
 
A must for any Hockey fan, this tournament ranks up there for Hockey experiences.

It's so much fun! The Swiss love their Hockey!

Wait, so are you inferring that Jokerit didn't take this tournament seriously, but instead all other teams did? :laugh::handclap:

Every team is there for fun (do you think only Jokerit brought their families along???). The Spengler Cup is a friendly, invitational tournament. Sort of an exhibition and nothing more. So, the amount of effort is pretty much the same for everybody.

The simple fact is that Jokerit, in a tournament where everyone gave a so so effort + took it as an extended holiday, didn't win it all... didn't get to the finals either... and didn't even manage to win their group. To sum it up, Jokerit didn't do anything.

It might be a "stupid tournament" for you, for most people I believe it is a bit of hockey during the holidays, which is better than NO hockey.

Players said it and fans also. Stupid tournament.... KHL Games+National team games plus this meaningless tournment is just too much.

Yeah, if Jokerit would have won this tournament, you would have sung a different tune. Stay classy.
