sioux rube Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Canucks tie it and the Swedes retake the lead 2-1. Canadien goalie pulled 10 minutes in. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Great pace in this game so far. Both teams are flying. Quote
sioux rube Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Canucks take the lead 3-2 with 8 to go in the 2nd. Quote
sioux rube Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Jost just got robbed twice within a second. Quote

Wilbur Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 5-2 final. TSN broadcast making it seem like Canada just beat the best Swedish team ever. Quote

Can't tell which team Canadian fans favor, since they don't like either team 10 years ago, it seemed clear to me they disliked the USA but really hated the Russians (aka Soviets, the Red Army and all that history). In the last decade, we've moved up. And 10 years from now, they will be cheering for Russia ... Quote

Can't cheer for either one. 1 Quote

farce poobah Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 6 minutes ago, UNDhoops said: will there be a difference in 10 years Yes, I think so. Hockey in the USA hasn't yet tapped into all the places where talent can come from. We're in the middle stages of a generational evolution from the 1980's (half Massachusetts, half Minnesota), to where it will be (20-ish states regularly providing elite players). Certainly Ohio and Pennsylvania are the lowest hanging fruit for consistently producing more elite players than historically. We're also middle stages of the transition from rare medallist (1 time in the 1980's) to now (5 times this decade so far) to being perennial favorites. During my lifetime, I think we overtake Canada in this event. But hey I'm just an optimist at the start of every year. Quote

Just couldnt finish. 1 Quote

AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Has there been a bigger Team USA game since the 2010 Olympics final? Edit: On this continent. Prime time or bust for me. Quote
