They always have the pucks bouncing their way and the referee calls with them. Sometimes I just feel its a reason why it's like that. Cheaters!
Pepper said:I don't think people here hate Canada (well some might do), it's just that after years of very dubious decisions both on and off the ice which seemingly have benefitted north-american teams, people are getting frustrated with it.
This is partly because of Canadian media, I've watched all WCH tournaments since 1991 and very often I found myself gasping after reading game recaps at Slam! or faceoff.com, it seemed like the journalists have been watching a totally different game and the game reports have been so red-white & biased that it wasn't even funny. I guess it's partly because few years ago WCH was not taken seriously in north-america and there had to be excuses for poor results and 'bad reffing against Canada' was the easiest excuse back then.

when is this madness gonna stop?

PecaFan, I have to guess that Colin Campbell would have been at about 10 also. I haven't heard anyone in the media, paid 'experts' or journalists suggest that it was not punishable.
