Congrats to Team USA for a great game.

:USA::USA::USA::USA::cheers2:

That game and the whole series could have gone either way.

But it didnt ...so Dollabill is buying my champagne tonight.
 
It was a good game.. But I need to buy a few NHL teams and deport all the Canadian players. :) :cheers2:
I will do the dance and get the Molson to Alec. Congrats again to team NHL.. I mean Canada. :bump:
 
As much as it pains me....Congrat's to Team Canada it was a nice win in overtime......it was a very good game by both teams exactly what you'd want to see in the Gold metal game........ Not sure I like the 4 on 4 in overtime but "it is what it is"...
 
WAY TO GO BOYS! It's our game!!!!! ALways has- always will be!!!

Great effort by Team USA- you made us work for it!!!!!!
 
Congrats again to team NHL.. I mean Canada. :bump:

Awwww C'mon!......I suppose you vehemetly opposed the US Olympic "dream" team in 92 at Barcelona where they had Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, Micheal Jordan, Larry Bird, Scottie Pippin......shall I go on.....??????
You must have been beside yourself with that one!

And what does that tell you Peter? Maybe that even American pro hockey teams KNOW where the good players are to be found :) You folks have 10 times our population yet YOUR teams hire Hosers to play for them and pay them millions in USD.
Its OUR game ya know. When was the last time you heard the kids in your neighbourhood yell out "car!" and then shuffle their nets off the road to allow a car to pass? Its a fixation. Its a tradition.Its dam nearly genetic.
The NHL isn't an American thing, its a hockey thing. The players association ( union) offices are here in Toronto too.
 
Curious, what happened to that NHL team in Winnipeg?

hmmmm

bettman, the commissioner who has never played hockey and is American sent it to Phoenix. Now they are in 4th place and get 5000 fans a game and only exist because of the BS revenue sharing and the salary cap. I saw a game there when I was down for Barrett Jackson. It was bizarre, very different from seeing a game in Toronto.

When someone tried to buy it back the NHL blocked the sale otherwise they would be an hour from Toronto right now filling 20,000 seats every night.

Will give you one game to calls yours. I am sure we can name off a few sports that we own.... :kiss:

Keep in mind its the old adage what sport are your countries best athletes playing? I have this same argument with a guy I work with about rugby and he is Kiwi (except he gets it - if Lebron, Julias Peppers, Ray Lewis, etc. were playing rugby opposed to basketball, football and baseball).

To your point, I am an avid sports fan and this was the first hockey game that I watched seriously. I don't even know what icing is, lol. But it was very entertaining for even the type of fan I am.

You guys were the favorities - right?

Congrats. :cheers2:

Being the national heritage and all why would he have sent the team to Phoenix?
