Ain't nobody gonna care for a hockey tournament that competes with the Euros. Stop coming up with bad ideas and just don't watch and don't comment if you don't care.

Statesmen act like Euro sports are second rate compared to ours, and our leagues... mostly because they are... :party:

Could you even imagine Lebron James... Megatron (Calvin Johnson) ... playing soccer... The rules would have to be changed... :facepalm: ;););) United States sent out an athletic dork on the Tennis court for a while just to prove they could dominate. ;) :laugh:;) Some family with the next Adrian Peterson will switch up sports to just prove another point if the soccer crap keeps up.

All Joking aside, United States won't produce good soccer players till the money is right. Talents all there to be good at soccer, dedication from a small age is somewhere else with American athlete's for... 'whatever' reason. I say money. No young athletes in my time (long ago) heard about Millionaire soccer stars or mid-level school's giving full ride scholarships for average soccer players vs football/basketball. It's one of the better paying women's sports here though and ergo, we're pretty good on the national stage(*women).

The Euro’s are a massive soccer tournament that is offset (more international matches interfering with the season!) every 2 years from the World Cup. Europeans would much rather watch that than a hockey tournament

It's also almost better tournament than World Cup, because the weakest teams at Europe - who qualify for the Euro tournament - are a lot better than weakest teams who qualify for the World Cup. And only Brazil and Argentina will add on the Contender level.

World Cup is more global, It's a different, maybe more fun, but the quality of competition is overall worse.

Just wait for more Mexican roots on your population, and finally soccer takes it over.

It could happen... 🤷‍♂️

They've been joining our football/baseball/basketball culture pretty well though. America is still awesome, media try's to slander every minute but it's still a good melting pot here. The people do not hate each-other as bad as they want you to think.

America invited football, and the sport exemplifies a lot of what the country is... of course Europe will hate it. Zero caviar served and everyone speaks the same languages. :laugh: ;) I mean how are we supposed to trash talk back in that situation, eating that healthy throws us off and do you really expect us to learn a 2nd language?

Saw an article from one of those off beat nhl follower posts, and saw it again on Twitter.

Four Nations in serious jeopardy of being cancelled due to the winter storm. Could be record breaking snow in Montreal.

Just cancel it … start up the NHL again.

They're calling for 35 cm of snow, which is about a foot. Montrealers deal with snow like that every year, like it's their job. Tonight's game should be fine and the snow is supposed to end there like early Friday.

No issue, I doubt.
 
Can't wait until Saturday night at the Bell Centre in Montreal.

It will probably be the very first time in hockey history where the crowd boos the anthem of the opposition team AND the anthem of its own home team.

They're always looking to boo the Canadian Anthem in parts of Quebec. We'll see what happens.
