Listening this to get pumped for the third period

BTW this board and its mods are so much more chill then the NJ mods/posters.

 

[TimeZone]

I want some more energy by the US

Sure this is an exhibition but we could end this competition 4-0. It will be regarded as the best US performance in their hockey history.

Miracle on Ice says hello

 

[Lenny Levino]

Yeah, that wasn't my point, though re-reading it I can see how it be can confusing.

I was essentially stating there is no clear team head and shoulders above the rest like the Canadian team in 2014.

I see. Makes sense. Yeah, I agree.

Miracle on Ice says hello

Yeah but this team would kick their ass easily

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Damn, Henrik's dye job is a little aggressive. Just embrace a lil salt n pepper dude.

 

[Bradely]

Yeah but this team would kick their ass easily

URSS were saying the same.
That is why it is called: Miracle on Ice!!

 

[jgs]

I want the US to win this game but not at the expense of losing a star player to injury. We are going to need both Mat and Brady and Austin playing healthy to have a chance to beat Canada on Thursday.

 

[Summer Rose]

Yeah but this team would kick their ass easily

A team of fully-trained professionals would beat up on a ragtag group of mostly college kids? Where have I heard that before...

 

[TimeZone]

Yeah but this team would kick their ass easily

Which just makes their performance that much greater, on paper they were not even remotely near the level of the Soviets.

The USSR teams were juggernauts back then, I would argue some of those teams superior for their time to any team in this tournament.

One of the greatest performances of all time in any sport, not just hockey.

another USA post

Someone should tell the team that we're playing with actual goalies instead of playing post like they do at pickup hockey when not enough goalies show up.

Mats Naslund explained that this era of hockey is different. In the old days you could see 2/3rds of the net.

And we don't need those big D-men from the past. JoMo is the new Norris.

 

[jgs]

The goal post hates us in this game.

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Yeah but this team would kick their ass easily

Well yeah of course, I think you’re just proving his point though.

 

[Hanji]

This is getting ridiculous. How many times does Kenny Albert need to say we're missing key players?

 

[robertocarlos]

I think you could pull it off

Bounces needs more more in the crotch.

 

[Summer Rose]

This is getting ridiculous. How many times does Kenny Albert need to say we're missing key players?

He's going to say it every thirteen seconds now that you've mentioned it.

 

[SmoggyTwinkles]

Does he have 3 goals in this tournament?

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

This is getting ridiculous. How many times does Kenny Albert need to say we're missing key players?

Did you know they’ve hit posts too?

 

[The Blue Baron]

No energy in the building!

 

[jj cale]

Can't say sweden didn't come to play tonight anyway, they have competed.

 

[Summer Rose]

Another post!

 

[jgs]

5 post so far.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Another post!

That one was more of a tink than a ping.

...if it was a Canadian announcer, they'd be crucified here...
