Olympic Hockey Thread Part III

[HockeyBasedNYC]

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

Yep. Hope they choke though.

Go Ted Nolanites

Lol Backes is one tough SOB

Patrick Kane's application has been poor this tourney.

 

[KingStian]

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

Are you ****ing kidding me? If we don't make the playoffs based on Zucc missing a couple of weeks, which is probably not the case anyway, then we really don't deserve to be there either.

Patrick Kane's application has been poor this tourney.

Was just about to post this. Horrible tournament thus far from their most dynamic player. He's really making some stupid decisions.

 

[ArPanet]

Kane is floating.

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.

Yeah, I love watching them. But no NHL team could have depth like this. These guys are all too valuable and there's too few of them for any team in the NHL to have more than a few.

If Zucc is out, I don't want Miller up. I don't want Dorsett on the 3rd line or Moore on the 3rd line.

I want Fast up. Give him a 2nd cup of coffee with a better group of players. Lets see how he actually performs when he's not playing with Boyle and Pyatt.

Lol pyatt

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.

You are a ******* enigma, lol

Crosby seriously can't handle big moments anymore

 

[Punxrocknyc19*]

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.

Hamonic is closer to Mike Sauer than McDonagh in terms of skill.. but having said that Hamonic is still a top 4 dman, and he just happens to be on a team with not much quantity depth on their defense..

This great game going on is why I love Olympic hockey despite hating it.

[DoTheBlue]

What the hell was the ref doing. I thought he lost his whistle.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

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!

I thought I saw McD botch a few of those.

 

[Kokoschka]

Shea Weber with a hammer from the blue line, Bartulis doing his best Callahan impression. That leg has to be broken.

 

[Miamipuck]

I think it's smart to playing Orpik and Martin as much as possible here because in the next 2 games that tandem shouldn't see the ice much at all.

 

[Kakko]

The Phil!

 

[*Bob Richards*]

Phil The Thrill Kessel scores again.

An eagle was just born.

Or a knee. I think it might have hit him in the knee.

 

[DoTheBlue]

Kessel
I want to switch over to the Canada game but I know if I do I'll jinx the Latvians

 

[Levitate]

I thought I saw McD botch a few of those.

Passing from his offside probably isn't the easiest thing to get used to

Am I the only one who wants to see them get a medal
