Olympics put me to sleep....Just a boring boring atmosphere....

The Olympics do have historical significance i guess, but this is way more exciting.

...IIHF refs...no contact allowed...

 

[The Blue Baron]

The greed is out of control

I’m calling the game being declared a draw after 5 consecutive 20 minute overtime periods and each team is awarded a 2 nations cup.

 

[Al Lagoon]

I wouldn't mind seeing Canada serve up a slab of humble pie to the US.

 

[Nogatco Rd]

No real American drives an import….

The only people I know who only drive American are from Michigan. I’m sure there are a lot of pickup owners with serious brand loyalty but fortunately I don’t know any of them

It’s actually kind of a national tragedy how badly the US auto industry misplayed their hand

Yes, it's America that needs to be humbled in hockey, not Canada. You got it.

Gary Bettman will offer to cut the 4 nations cup in half, and the team who declines in favor of keeping the trophy intact will be recognized as the true winner

What a deal, only $7,327 a ticket..

My ST are in Loge 21 right next to the bench (row2) . I didn't even consider trying to afford these games.

A couple of days ago I looked for 1 seat in my section and it was $7500 before fees and taxes. I am sure the prices are coming down now with the game hours away.

 

[KCC]

Please no blow outs. Would love if it goes to OT.

 

[93gilmour93]

I just hope both teams have fun

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

Please no blow outs. Would love if it goes to OT.

...no...no heart attacks tonight please...

As an STH did you have an opportunity to get tickets at face when they were first released for sale?

 

[Three On Zero]

America just flat out has better gifs

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

I know I am!

 

[End on a Hinote]

Yes, it's America that needs to be humbled in hockey, not Canada. You got it.

I don't think they were talking hockey....

 

[Dirtyclapper]

I use to love watching International hockey.
Today?
Not so much
As a Canadian will I bother to watched tonight's game?
No. I will check the score before bed.
Can't wait for the NHL schedule to restart on Saturdays and watch the homestretch for the POs.

I will not watch it on television yet for some reason I will log in online and tell everyone I will not be watching!

Hockey is about to be on the biggest stage it's ever had. Please don't put up another 2-1 game. We need a 6-5 OT win.

People who haven't given a shit about hockey their entire lives have this game circles on their calendars.

Not sure my heart could take it.

 

[HockeyVirus]

The reaction after winning Saturday says US needs to be humbled

 

[NyQuil]

This is where our patriotism and identity is at. Win or lose, it's part of our national history.

So the LAST thing we need is people who know shit all about hockey coming to the NHL expecting all games to be 6-5. Defense? Goaltending? Afterthoughts man.

I know they sent me an email. It wasn't for my seats though. I just was too broke to consider it.

 

[NyQuil]

Without getting into the political side of the issue, the USA yelling out “freedom” or “best country ever” every now and then is delusional. If that’s how we quantify patriotism, then good luck.

Again, this is not a political statement, just an observation like you.

 

[Three On Zero]

This is the hero Canada deserves in net
