    Why was Canada the home team last night and tonight despite being the lower seed?  Host team?? They might as well just name this tournament the Team Canada International Tournament considering they are about the only country hosting it recently. 

    Not sure which game you were watching but the in the Gold Medal game on TSN they were the visiting team.   Czechia had the last change and Canada were wearing white sweaters in the game I watched.

    Blake was robbed. Hockey is losing its brilliance. Work hard, score a goal, and it gets taken away. Joke.

    IIHF rules made that play a crease violation.    If the puck exits the crease the opposing player in the crease must also exit.   Watch the replay and you will see that he did not.   The NHL would have let that goal stand.

  3. If you haven't seen it yet you all have to check out Stecher's unbelievable play to set up Canada's winning goal over Russia today.    It might just be the hockey play of the year.

    What a bush league way to decide Olympic hockey games.  

    I totally agree, it is called a Hockey Game not a skills competition.     You might as well save time and just flip a coin.

    Watching the Canada vs Finland game with mixed emotions:

    Canada losing would recreate the uproar that used to happen every four years when Canada failed to medal, from the 1970s until the NHL allowed its players to go.  That pressure is what it will take for the NHL to change its mind.  (Yeah I am boycotting the NHL for 2 weeks.)

    But I would love to see Genoway get a medal.

     

    Canada has already done as well as anyone could have hoped for with the lineup of journeymen that were thrown together.    A medal for Genoway would be nice, but even better would be another crack at the NHL.   Of all the players in that lineup he is the most deserving of another shot as he has been the team's most dependable D-man ( I don't think there has been a goal against with him on the ice).    Maybe Hakstol will give him a call.

    I'm out.  Good luck.  I can't watch this garbage.  I'd rather watch WHL...this SIoux team is the worst that I've seen since I started paying attention again when Parise showed up.

    Perhaps you should stick to the sports you know like maybe Bouncy Ball?

    According to hockeyDB.com a complete set is all 92-93 players + 4 alumni: Ed Belfour, Jon Casey, Bob Joyce and Dave Christian.

    I have two sets of all 92-93 players + 2 Jon Casey + 2 Ed Belfour + Troy Murray (???); no Bob Joyce or Dave Christian.

    I am willing to part with one or both sets, just let me know and I can get them to you.

    .

    The complete set is 40 cards.    The first 32 are easier to find because they were given out at the game, which includes the Casey and Belfour.   However you could only get the other eight Alumni cards with a sandwich at Subway so they are harder to find and are worth some decent coin.   Those other Alums are Christian, Hrkac, Joyce, Murray, Patrick, Romanuk, Valk and Ward.

  8. There certainly were a lot of greats, but many of those greats had an incredible supporting cast.   Therefore, if I had to pick the one player that I thought more often than not impacted the outcome of a game in UND's favour I think I would have to go with Jeff Panzer.

    The world juniors were a perfect storm for the Ralph. No nhl going on at the time and the Canadians showed up to watch.

     

    their dollar is weak now I know but TSN has said multiple times for this tourney the Canadian dollar is worth the American dollar at the Ralph. 

     

    Remember they've already exceeded ticket sales from the same tourney in Fargo. USA needs to win this semi to make this tourney a success though. The Ralph is banking on a USA Canada final.

    The Ralph won't get their wish as Finland scored with under a minute left, and I forgot that the empty netter at the buzzer counted, to win it 4-2.
