When do they anounce the mvp i need sleep

 

[Hyack57]

Duncan Keith has his arm wrapped around Luongo. Odd visual.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

what is with the lovefest for crosby?

He's the best player in the world?

 

[kihei]

One of the very best men's Team Canadas ever. But congrats to Sweden for a great tournament and putting up a fight until the end.

 

[Juzmo]

Boy Getzlaf is bald.

Bouwmeester looks so awkward hahaha.

wow st. louis is tiny

I was as shocked as you guys were by all of that.

 

[HABS win CUPS*]

hehe the guys look underwhelmed

 

[CK17]

Subban with the biggest smile on the team.

 

[Gobias Industries]

Singing the anthem just like any good Canadian, through your teeth!

 

[Sharpshooter]

Best Olympic team in the modern era?

In the 2014 era? Certainly.

 

[Chimpradamus]

He should start stepping up in these big games for once so he doesn't have to put that face on all the time

Puts together all of these great regular season performances, but when push comes to shove he seems to have trouble handling the spotlight

It's too bad because he's a solid goaltender otherwise

[mod]

Anyways, losing Sedin and Franzén before the tournament was really tough. Steen got concussed and hasn't been as good as before. Same with Loui, concussion. Then the dagger in the heart when Zetterberg hurt his back, one of the absolute MVP players on the team who always plays great in big games, only to then lose Bäckström for the final as the final fork in the meat.

That really sucks and makes the appreciation for the silver medal even bigger. Add to that MÃ¥rts and his cluelessness how to pick his defensemen.

 

[Tont]

Never change J-Bo, so awkward in the Gold Medal line.

 

[SanderSen]

Congrats Canada. So very, very well deserved. I think that was the best defense I've ever seen. Wow.

Still proud of the boys, just wish they could've shown up today though. But I think that Canada made Sweden look bad too.

Sweden did show up but the were bringing a knife to a gun fight. Would have been a more interesting game with a couple more key players available.

BIG kudos for Sweden for taking the risk of opening it up and going for stretch plays instead of going rope a dope D shell and hoping for a PP or break. That took guts and it made me sick to listen to the CBC commentators harping about.

 

[604]

Those jerseys look better when accompanied by Gold Medals

 

[fahad203]

Bouwmeester looks so awkward hahaha.

He looks like DJ Qualls

 

[Zack Kassian]

del perton i saw that post and it was the funniest thing i've ever read

 

[Ryan34222]

Way to go Canada. Great tourney. And having no players from the maple Leafs to taint this for me makes it even sweeter.

Wooohoooo!!!!!

 

[CK17]

LOL Price

 

[TML FTW*]

ha ha i forgot they all get to share planes back to north america

 

[HABS win CUPS*]

oh man we win gold AND the NHL finally starts back up again #WINNING

 

[Sharpshooter]

Bouwmeester looks so awkward hahaha.

He's such a mimbo. Doesn't even know the words to the anthem.

 

[MrShift4]

Now I get to go back to hating most of these guys

 

[Boreal01]

Lol Price!

 

[MMANumminen]

Congratulations Canada, the best hockey nation

 

[Lugaid]

I must admit I cracked at Bouwmeester too. He looked so surprised to have won

Salute Canada.

 

[Kenny Powders]

Price even shaky in the team photo. wtf is that stack the pad technique.
