GDT: Quarterfinal - May 23 - Canada vs Switzerland

[Star Ocean]

Always.

How about olympics 2002. We beat canada 5-2 with sakic, mario lemiuex and eric lindros on the team but loses to belarus on a puck from the red line.

Not exactly luck.

In world cup 1996 we lost in double OT after having two clear chances of winning it in the same shift. Alfredsson missed an empty net.

 

[jj cale]

Sure, but keep that focus then and don't blow it out of proportion like it's some horde of posters, when it's just one grumpy guy.

I won't.

 

[NyQuil]

Everyone gets a bit of luck now and then.

It evens out over the long run.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Yeah right, that's why the game went to OT

You must be new to hockey.

Sometimes the better teams lose, sometimes the team clearly much worse keeps it close based on bounces.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Right, and you said "two posters".

Arithmetic is clearly not your strong suit.

Are you actually serious?! If you haven't noticed by common logic (I know, a bit too much passive aggressiveness by me), a conversation requires two people to be able to communictate with eachother. One was attacking, one was defending, that isn't a plural attack on Canadian posters, when one of them is defending. Ok. Between two posters is not the same thing as "two posters". What the... yeah, we're done. Again, calm down and you're acting like a journalist right now.

You're a good poster, so it's all good. And sorry if I was too aggressive in my response, but still, you shouldn't derail the discussion like this.

 

[Peiskos]

It was a Jordan Eberle 09’ World Juniors moment.

Are you actually serious?! If you haven't noticed by basic, common logic, a conversation requires two people to be able to communictate with eachother. One was attacking, one was defending, but according to NyQuil logic, that is a plural attack on Canadian posters, when one of them is defending. Ok. Between two posters is not the same thing as "two posters". What the... yeah, we're done. WTF. Again, calm down and you're acting like a journalist right now.

Yeah, you can't play the victim card here, regardless how much you want to. You're a good poster, so it's all good. And sorry if I was too aggressive in my response, but still, you shouldn't derail the discussion like this.

How do you interpret this?

What a joy.

Maybe not, but at least we dont get to hear how worthless whc is.

You and I have very different interpretations of what defending Canadian posters means.

Just unwarranted jabs for no particular reason.

Yeah, you can't play the victim card here.

And you're playing the discussion forum police officer card.

I'm not sure what's worse.

Wow, are you actually offended by my message?

Yeah, ok, I give you a nudge for those quotes. There were three, hence plural. But still, ignore the teenagers. The other dozens and dozens don't.

 

[NyQuil]

Wow, are you actually offended by my message?

Was that your intention?

 

[jj cale]

Was that your intention?

It certainly wasn't a compliment to us.

 

[NyQuil]

It certainly wasn't a compliment to us.

There are mobs of annoying Canadian fans out there but so far this thread has been pretty good.

That's why I was surprised and fairly disappointed by the unsolicited barbs.

 

[Star Ocean]

Was that your intention?

I find this forum pretty chill compared to the hatred on the stanley cup board

 

[Urbanskog]

Was that your intention?

Since I don't really see how could that possibly be interpreted to be offensive, obviously not. I think you need to reflect on yourself if you are offended so easily.

 

[swisdan]

So sad for my Switzerland. I was shocked when I saw Slovakia again Canada or Germany. But this can be the same worse then them cause we were so so closed.
Something I ll remember for life.

Just one thing to say. Let's keep this anger for the next WM in Switzerland. And hope we ll do very good at home. Perhaps Gold, let's dream even if it is nightmare right now...

Anyway congrats to Canada to believe till end. Stone is great...

 

[Engineer]

So who does Canada play next?

 

[NyQuil]

Since I don't really see how could that possibly be interpreted to be offensive, obviously not. I think you need to reflect on yourself if you are offended so easily.

You're not fooling anyone.

Carry on.

 

[Urbanskog]

You're not fooling anyone.

Carry on.

No, I have genuinely never encountered anyone who has gotten offended as easily.

 

[Star Ocean]

It was a Jordan Eberle 09’ World Juniors moment.

Canada can add one to the history books.

 

[kihei]

I know how tough a loss that was but no tip of the hat by the Swiss fans that were here posting all game long? hmm.

Can you blame them? Had that gone the other way, I don't think our side would have been tipping any hats either.

 

[jj cale]

I hear you.

The thing that's most annoying is that it's from fans whose team did not even play in this game, I mean..........what's the need? especially in a thread that as you said has been VERY good compared to how most gdt's are for international games on here.

And then they come in with the usual garbage, it's too bad.

 

[End on a Hinote]

Anyway, I guess I'm not surprised to see people bashing Canadian fans even though we're trying to be cordial in here.

And yet its always us who are looked at as the classless ones....

Crapnada had the famous Swedish luck

Crapnada? When do you start high school?

 

[jj cale]

Can you blame them? Had that gone the other way, I don't think our side would have been tipping any hats either.

There was little animosity from either side during this game and I am very confident in saying more then one Canadian fan would have tipped their hats, i was all ready to with 5 seconds left in the game and I know damn well the character of other Canuck fans who were posting here for sure would have also, i've seen them do it lots of times in the past.

So yes, I can.

 

[jj cale]

And yet its always us who are looked at as the classless ones....

That's am HF myth based on hatred around here.

Nu erkänner stjärnan: Kände inte till regeln

Kevin Fiala broken beyond words and accused 3on3 OT as stupid.
