Olympic Hockey Thread Part III

[Let Blaine Die]

Based Mac Truck breaks rink.

Nationalism aside, I ****ing LOVE Team USA.

The players, the style, the work, it's EXACTLY what the New York Rangers were supposed to become. Fast, talented, hard hitting, hard working, and as we keep hearing, "Blue Collar".


It's an inspiration to watch.

JAM JAM BLUE COLLAR JAM NET PRESENCE JAM

When did NBC become Torts

 

[aufheben]

Pavelec is an embarrassment.

Real bad.

 

[RGY]

Latvia on the PP

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Instead we're becoming a team built with a nice blend of size, speed, and skill.

Oh, the horror!

How bout it says they are big moment players.

Oh, the horror!

Well I'm not so sure about size, but really, winning is the most important.

I happen to prefer the Team USA model.

 

[Kakko]

There is one thing pissing me off in this game.

McDonagh makes a short pass to Suter, who makes the outlet pass.

Don't do that McD. Screw Suter. That outlet pass is yours!

 

[Callagraves]

Oh my god, Doc, just shut the **** up and call the game.

Geometrically? What a ****ing ponce.

 

[Bluenote13]

USA, Canada, Russia, Sweden, Finland - all these teams have all star caliber lineups.

The difference has been who has shown up looking like they want Gold and those who look like they are playing in an all star game.

USA has gone to work every shift, hard workers, but don't be fooled, they are also some of the best players in the world. Once they find the openings they bang it home like all stars.

Also, the USA squad is relatively young and the players are around the same age range. Familiarity and similar training, definitely something to that. Gotta be proud of how far USA program has come.

LOL Orpik is such a *******.

 

[Callagraves]

Orpik had no place on this team, has no place on the ice.

Dan Abysmal strikes again.

Terrible decision. Should've been Erik Johnson. Physical, shutdown defenseman with youth, better mobility, and past Olympic experience. Made no sense.

 

[Cmox]

Hey guys? Remember when main HFboards had McD penciled as a extra D?

 

[aufheben]

LAT-VI-A! LAT-VI-A!

 

[GFiP*]

I wish we had Backes on the first line

 

[Levitate]

Before taking that penalty Orpik had more icetime than any other player on team USA except for his partner, Martin

What the **** are you doing Bylsma jesus christ

 

[Callagraves]

I'm so happy this tournament is getting McD the recognition he deserved.

 

[Let Blaine Die]

Absolute joke. McD is the breakout star of Team USA this tournament (alongside Oshie for obvious reasons). Still laugh when I think about how Islanders fans were claiming that Hamonic is as good, if not better, than McD.

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

If zucc does miss two weeks of games.. were *******....that being said I really hate Olympics..if I was GMs I would be very angry since they are paying the players

 

[Hire Sather]

Those Latvians.

Could be our generation's verison of Miracle on Ice here.

This is what the olympics are about. This is why I love Olympic hockey, which I've said, despite my comments the last couple days about injuries.

 

[Crease]

Can't believe the Canada Latvia game is tied after two.

 

[Levitate]

As hilarious as it is that Canada is struggling to beat Latvia at the moment we all know what will really happen is they'll get some fluke bounce goal and then win it 3-1 with an EN goal
