NBC execs must have tasered Pierre Mcguire in mid-speech right after the US/Sweden game in the hopes of keeping viewers..he said Switzerland's goalie is fully capable of "stealing" a game from Canada. Yea...assuming their one shot on goal all game goes in the net.
I really like Blasi - sure wish he would have won that BU title game a few years back. I'd still be losing sleep at night over that loss if I were him.
Yikes. Get well soon.
Cakebread...possibly the greatest name on the back of a jersey. Ever. Now if he'd only been Cakeeater...it could quite possibly outpace Oshie jerseys in a few years.
Big pre-season expectations that got blown up early on probably hasn't helped matters. A sweep of St Cloud this weekend would help turn things around, right?
Agreed. The USA and Canada are also the only countries on the continent that play hockey. Can't blow the budget flying across the Atlantic constantly to play Sweden and Finland in exhibition games.
How about opposite-handed sticks for US and Canadian women's teams while we're at it?
