Hockey ROCKS! It is the hardest hitting, fastest game on earth (when players are motivated as in the Olympics). Millions play and watch hockey. The world can't be wrong.

In Canada, it's NOT just hockey...it is one of the most scared things our country has (trust me, we don't have many & Celine Dion doesn't count).
It's like saying after your US basketball team loses in the Olympics...would you say..."It's just basketball"???
I'm not flaming, but hockey in our country is treated with the highest respect & honor...just like your beloved baseball or basketball...

i think this is one of the greatest hockey game to watch ever...both teams with supreme defensive stops and superior offense power and it is way more fun to watch than the all star game becoz it doesn't ahve any defense at all...
canada clearly had the game right from the beginning as they were keep attacking the US...coach don cherry rulez!!
Remember the Coca-Cola commercial? "He shoots, He scores!!! Canada wins the Gold Medal"...can't believe it finally comes true for us...sure they did hear us!!
anyone went on a parade yesterday?

Chadhova, the Soviets had always deployed professional hockey players in for their Olympic teams. Their players were all professionals from the Red Army. This is perhaps the reason why the USSR dominated hockey for so many years in Olympic hockey.
Now that the Olympics relaxed the rules the playing field is even. The best athletes representing each country competing against others fair and square.

I hope you Canadians are happy!
Happy with that Gold Medal?
Happy with ending your 50 year drought?
Well someone owes me a Captain, and a team high scorer. Both Yzerman and Shanahan were injurde inyour little quest for Gold. Shanny broke his thumb and will play, although his shot will most likely be for shit for the next couple weeks.
Yzerman has to have his knee scoped to find out what the damage is.
We're trying to get a Stanley Cup here folks. Give us a break okay.

Well, I spoke somewhat, to soon.
Steve is still out. But Brendan sucked it up and scored 2 goals last night.
Further proof that hockey players are some of the toughest SOB's on the earth.
Except Theo.

Could someone PLEASE tell my hockey team. "YOU'RE IN THE PLAYOFFS"
Damn Red Wings are really pissing me off. Vancover is FOR REAL you dummies. And you can't let them keep beating you to the puck. You fockers need to hit something, ANYTHING! And stop spending so much time trying to setup the perfect pass, or the perfect shot. Vancover is young and fast, they're on top of you monkeys before you know it.
ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I have to try to get a nap in today. Being in the western conference SUCKS.
The game doesn't start here until 10 pm. I have to be up for work at 4:15. Very little sleep tonight, but I can't wait for game 3. Good Luck to the Canucks.
