Yeah, I'm not being serious. I laughed when their examples were Bruins, Flyers, Raiders...
Maybe the bad guys choose black?

byram is a jokester apparently

I live in BC, I cannot relate to this "ice and snow for 8 months of the year" haha

Usually i could say the same living in ottawa, but this year we could easily make it to 7-8 if we have a typical ending to winter lol.

Started in mid november so late march early april is way to long.

Byram seems like a fun guy to be around.

 

[Buttsy]

Drop the puck damn it!

I'm not sure what part of Canada is snow covered for 8 months... Nunavut maybe? Cities like Toronto haven't even snow this year for more than few days. Vancouver gets very little snow as well. Maybe Edmonton which is the furthest capital city. This is a myth along with pet polar bears and no plumbing.lol Even Quebec is struggling with their ski conditions today.

FTR... Canada is one of the fastest rising nations in tennis for both mens and womens... that is unprecedented and amazing.

Zero snow in Vancouver so far this year. 11C (52F) yesterday.

 

[Akustiikka]

If Sweden would have won, most people would want Finland to beat us. Gotta get dem rivalries

Finland-Russia is very big rivalry too btw. Im not sure which one is bigger fin-swe or fin-rus. Both have their own reasons.

My home town has been in winter since late october early november and it never stops until april.

The bad guys...that's us.

Perhaps trigger was focusing more individual skill in junior programs than finnish quote ''kaikki pelaa''

But somebody triggered that.... who?

For instance.. the Czechs have had the same people in charge for this entire 'run' of no medals. Not even considering firing them. Soon they'll guys like Jagr to the 'team' to give it 'credibility' (note: I'm making up Jagr for effect but it will be someone like him - Varada/Elias on our bench here, Reichel/Spacek on bench for men's team).

They're not getting it. Finn's did. I'm just curious if it was Kurri/Selanne OR, my hunch, just some smart hockey Finn who everyone listened to.

I’m at Le Massif near Quebec City.

Taking a little break from the slopes to watch the games though.

It’s pretty mild here although it’s supposed to get colder tomorrow. Conditions aren’t too bad although there are quite a few runs closed.

Goosh I hate Arttu Lindeman, I wish he and his ADD buddy would be swallowed by earth.

Mt. St Anne looks to be rough! Lots of fog and closed tracks.

Massif, which is my fav btw, is a little further north and a little more in that snowbelt. I imagine, without looking, that Stoneham is in bad shape too.

We had a terrible November with record-breaking cold spells.

It’s been weird lately.

I dont know u but Finland vs. Russia is rivalrvy too. Nowadays I like maybe more win to Russia and Canada than Swedes.

 

[c9gunner]

Lets go Canada!

 

[FinPanda]

Lets put another prediction: 2-0 Finland.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

6-1 Canada, Lafreniere and Foote both score hat tricks

Annunen scores for Finland

I’m at le Germain so the apres-ski is top notch.

Skiing is the means to get to the apres-ski.

I haven’t been to Ste Anne since I was in high school - but I remember liking it.

Usually I ski Tremblant because it’s closer.

Easy win for Finland coming up. Annunen lets nothing in, 3-0. Enjoy

heh.

4-1 Canada, they show the reason they're known as the king of the hockey world.

Finland has gotten lucky the past couple matchups... that ends today.

Lets put another prediction: 2-0 Finland.

...over a disinterested Swedish team in the bronze medal game.
