World Cup SF: Sep 10 GDT - USA vs. Finland

[Buffalo Stylee]

Kinda like Basketball?? oh wait.. I'm sorry...

I'm not lashing out because I'm upset we lost. I just hate people like Titrtiz who come out and make fun of losing teams.

 

[Jussi]

Just like Hockey News predicted....

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

Just like your "Dream Team"? :lol

There was only one Dream Team in basketball.

 

[ILUVTHISGAME]

It's been a slice, Tkachuk.

:lol :lol

 

[CREW99AW]

What's the American hockey team up to? :lol

waiting for the Canadians to join them on the golf course, after tomorrow's game

 

[Buffalo Stylee]

What's the American hockey team up to? :lol

Let's not talk, Tito. We had more than twice as many Bronze medals than the Canadians had total in the Olympics.

 

[Mo's Bald Spot]

I could care less about basketball. By the way, where did the Canadians place in that sport? ...

and baseball?

whoops

 

[SopelFan*]

Thanks for making Canadians look bad, guys.

 

[psycho_dad*]

YES!!!!

We did it!

Amazing...Finland was the better team 5 on 5 and deserved it. Biggest win in Finnish hockey history!

Thank you guys!!!

Jokinen was big in the win

 

[TheBigBadB]

DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?

Nope. So long, Team USA. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of guys.

Yeah I do, when Czech knock out the loud mouth canucks...

I wanted Canada to win if the US team didnt...but not with the knuckles head here gloating over a US loss...Now all root against..

 

[Mr. Penguin]

**** YEAH!!!!! **** YEAH!!!!!!!!

THIS IS SO UNBELIVEABLY AWESOME!!! FINLAND'S GREATEST HOCKEY ACHIEVMENT!!!

Crappy game... awesome result. This is so right! USA lost! Damn right!!!

 

[usmhuskies]

Canada vs Finland.

Don't overlook the Czechs: cause that could be a mistake: just ask Sweden!!!

 

[Zine]

Just like your "Dream Team"? :lol

I rarely defend the U.S., but that was hardly their Dream Team.
Some great NBA talent - yes.
The absolute best the US had to offer - no way.

Now back to hockey........

 

[Buffalo Stylee]

I know not all Canadians are happy over the US loss. I just can't stand the ones that have to rub it in our faces though.

 

[yannick]

STILL

koivu ripped my dream. the one i dream to see Canada beating USA by a score like 6-0

 

[Burnaby_Joe*]

Canada vs Finland.

 

[weetabix]

The tide

Great game for Finland.
Playing with their strength. Fast skating, good goaltending and good team defence. Enough scoring to win this game this time even if there wasn't that many changes to score.

 

[Guy Caballero]

Yeah I do, when Czech knock out the loud mouth canucks...

I wanted Canada to win if the US team didnt...but not with the knuckles head here gloating over a US loss...Now all root against..

I don't root against them because of animosity toward Americans in general. I root against them because I hate Tzachuk, Weight, and Hull. Dirty cheapshot artists and whiners. I couldn't stand to see them win.

 

[TheBigBadB]

Just like your "Dream Team"? :lol

maybe they lost this year...but they are 192-3....whats canada's record again? Oh, look there not as good as they think they are. Its not like the win all the time...jeez get over yourself.

 

[Burnaby_Joe*]

Modano, don't hit your a$$ on the way out.

 

[DevMod9]

The U.S. and the Finns played a tightly contested game. The Finns aggression paid dividends in the end. I wish them the best of luck the rest of the way.

 

[ILUVTHISGAME]

will you quit bickering?

it was hockey... and this may be the last we see of it.. enjoy the plays, the players.. the 'sudden-death' rush...
the game of hockey is being played.. and it's not about money right now..

Mink

 

[Riddarn]

Just like Hockey News predicted....

They did?

Seriously, this was a great game and I'm glad I stayed awake watching the staged north american final go into thin air

I'd also be cautious if I was Canadian taking the Czechs for granted. I'm not so sure it will be a walk in the park for the Canadians. The Czechs play like Slovakia, but there's a few differences:

Czechs have a real goalie.
The Czechs have more than one good defenseman.
The Czechs are overall much deeper than Slovakia.
They still possess mad offensive skills even if Jagr should be forced to sit it out.

There would be Americans doing the same if the situation were reversed. You've just got to live with it.

 

[Flonaldo]

Captain Courageous! That's all I have to say. Absolutely, positively, definitely the biggest win for Finland ever.
