JOVO ..woo hoo ..my only question is ..why are there more swedes in here whining about the refs than russians ????
 
Men and Boys...The Russian wingers are handing our D-men a free pass to participate in the offence. :propeller

Scared of the hat trick of three championships in a row...

They should be cheering for Canada then, so they can get another crack at them.

I think that would be a lot sweeter than beating Russia for them. :dunno:
 
A Russian forward tried to walk off with Brodeur's stick in mid-play and Brodeur just wouldn't let it go! He followed him out to the left faceoff circle even! :joker:
 
Bon, McGuire doesn't like Ovechkin's visor, what a shock!!!Am I the only one laughing at how bad they pronounce some of the russian names?
 
he did crosscheck, otherwise i need to see an eye-doc.

Maltby hit Markov on his right side (Maltby's right side). Markov turned his back to Maltby at the last minute to receive a pass. Maltby did NOT cross-check Markov, hit from behind maybe, but NOT a cross-check.

As I already said, Russia is horrible. This team has :
- no defense
- a very shaky goalie who can let in a ton of goals on weak shots
- the most ridiculous ever PP and PK units.

My prediction? 11-0 Canada.

Your sarcastic post could actually happen now. :clap:

Are you sure? btw why do you even care? It's evident that canadian fans don't care about this tournament. Just check your countrymans rant:

On the second part yes tsn and such are talking about these games but hockey fans in Canada don't really care all that much if we win or lose. THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS MEAN VERY LITTLE TO CANADIANS! TSN and SN are only talking about it because they have nothing else to talk about.

:rolleyes:

Do you honestly think Russia would be winning this game anyways?
I doubt it. They look really bad in general, don't think the ref has much to do with that. Wish they'd turn it up a few notches, I think the announcer just yawned, can't blame him.
 
Thats one thing i hate about Canadian hockey , we never run it up ..ide like to be like the swedes when they play japan or someone ..score 24 goals ..i guess we are more respectfull of others though.

so ease up on the blame the ref thing.

This ref looks like he will call everything.

So keep your elbows down, don't hook, don't leave your feet, don't hit from behind, don't hold sticks, don't retaliate and please, please don't dive - it's embarrassing. Don't let this sport become soccer (global football).

Russia will get their share of calls if they start to dictate the play. So far they haven't. Canada has: 5 on 5, 5 on 4, 5 on 3, 3 on 5, 4 on 5; so don't blame the ref.

Russia has to pick it up. They look soft and individualistic right now.

Canada someone has said has started to slow down; this is true and it worries me to. So it's up to the Russians to respond.

That being said. Go Canada Go :yo:


I know I didn't blame the refs for anything. Russia is simply overmatched, bad D and bad goaltending.

respectful? You mean the opposite. When you dont run up the scores you have no respect for your opponent.
 
Canada is going to let Russia back into this game if they keep playing like this.
