Series Talk: Four Nations Face-Off Tournament

[expatriatedtexan]

Cause two weeks ago everyone talked about this being a joke. IMO the hockey hasn't been that great either. Only having 4 nations in it doesn't really make it a true best-on-best to me either.

I'm just surprised so many people especially outside of the hockey community actually care about this.

Two weeks ago, everyone here was talking about this tourny. Are you actually pissed off because people who aren't everyday hockey fanatics are talking about hockey?

Seriously... what the f*** is wrong with you?

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely understand that everyone wants a massive world best on best tournament. But that was never going to be in the works for a mid-season tournament replacing the All-Star week. It's simply not long enough to do more.

So what's your beef?

I can't believe I got sucked into watching that entire thing lol.

Bookmark that youtube channel. Some of the stuff they've got about how dogs and cats evolved to be support players for humans is just incredible.

Almost that time! I'm fired up for this one.

When Canada wins, does the US become Canada's 11th province?

Cale must be infecting mofos lol

I'm surprised Russo continues to get quotes from Bill Guerin considering this has been Guerin for the last three days:

I can't believe how many people care about this tournament. It's mind boggling to me.


I guess maybe the political stuff has turned it into a bigger deal than it really should be.

lol you serious? Pretty dense comment.

Even if Canada doesn't win, would you consider Alaska becoming your 11th province?

Norovirus is running through the Canadian locker room.

Well, I'm not Canadian, but sure why not. Although, it would be funnier if it was a random state in the middle of the US like Kansas.

 

[Avs_19]

The fix is in.

I think the hockey has been really good. IMO, much better than the NHL hockey we'd be seeing right now. It's a nice change of pace before we get back to the season.

I think it's fair to call it best on best too considering it's the best these four teams have to offer. Just doesn't include ALL of the best players in the NHL.

I've enjoyed it.

Ain't that the shits!

What funny is, this was the prompt I used:

"bald eagle wearing team USA hockey jersey fighting an Canadian goose wearing team Canada hockey jersey"

Not once did it give me a picture where the Canadian goose was winning the fight.

Needed to call it by its proper name: Cobra Chicken. Canadian Goose doesn’t adequately portray the true level of menace they present and need to win

Even if Canada doesn't win, would you consider Alaska becoming your 11th province?

I approve of this deal so I don’t have to cancel my vacation

 

[dahrougem2]

Coach is actually choosing Chris Kreider over Kyle Connor???

 

[Avs_19]

Joke's on you guys considering JT resigned at the beginning of the year. I recognize Nathan MacKinnon as my PM.

Are you thinking of coming to Alaska for a trip?

If so, let me know if you are planning on hitting Fairbanks up. I really feel bad for anyone who comes here on purpose and feel like I owe them a drink.

When my kids brought that home I thought I was closer to death than I did in a firefight lol.

It's probably what the Canes had.

Hey I took a cruise up the Alaskan coast once. The boat sucked, and the arcade was a walk in closet, but Alaska was fun.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

Wait that got deleted WTF?

If it didn't, I've been having a hell of a time trying to find it to show my wife. *LOL*

You legit made my side hurt from laughing with that post. It was just so quick, raw and relentless. A true work of art.

And, yet, he's still there.

Imagine Bednar resigning in December, but still being the Avs HC now?

I'm going to ruthlessly mock the loser no matter who it is. I might also do a bit of over-the-top excuse making. The best part of stuff like this is how thin skinned people are.

I know I'm a terrible person.

Look man, there's a process. Jared would still be around too if they had to vote on his replacement.
