Canada - US games have become the chief rivalry for us the past decade or so. Although I really miss the pure angst of playing the Soviets.twibnotes said:Duh.
I'm a dumb american, clearly
(Incidentally, as someone who has played hockey my whole life and made many trips to Canada, I love the place...except when we play them.)
Yea I was a bit disappointed with Eichels effort after the first period of the Canada game. I think he took some big hits, and Canada got into his head a bit. He played a very passive game and a half after that (minus a couple real nice net drives).PedroSpecialK said:These tournaments are often a matchup/officiating/luck crapshoot, especially among bigger powers like US/CA/RU/SE - it's not rocket appliances.
Eichel could have been bigger I suppose? Overall wasn't really upset with the US's effort, it didn't break for them.
Thanks, BC. Of course, finding a good avatar isn't rocket appliances.BCsMightyJoeYoung said:Twibnotes .. Nice fuckin' avatar
Not that I would admit watching the Trailer Park Boys but it does have a certain charm to it. The series (and subsequent movies) were all made here in Halifax .. They started out shooting in actual trailer parks but quickly wore out their welcome. Eventually they had enough money to actually build their own dedicated set. I find it amazing that you could have a successful TV show based largely on the single gag of swearing on TV.twibnotes said:Thanks, BC. Of course, finding a good avatar isn't rocket appliances.
Edit: whoa, Pedro Special K beat me to the punch. That guy is smarter than Indianapolis Jones.
Nice. Why does there need to be a "panel" of hockey experts for any and all occasions? It's the NFL pre-game show of Canada,reggiecleveland said:I thought I posted this before, but during the world juniors TSN makes the Yes crew look like Swiss diplomats.
