Kinda sums up the whole game.
 
Yeah, you need a few of Brodeur bobbling the puck. :lol:


Also, I love this picture:

:lol: That pile up was pretty funny-three big Canadians!

*sigh* so we have to go through a few more hoops for the semi then.

Our ice dancers are on top so far by 3 points!

The joke now is that Ryan Miller is going to lace up the figure skates and shut out the Canadian ice dancing team tomorrow. :lol:
 
I just hope we don't have to face Russia in the quarter-finals or something.
We get a bye.
And so does Russia so the earliest we could ever play them would be semis.

Not anymore. The loss means we have to play a qualification game against Germany, then the winner plays a quarterfinal game against the 3rd-ranked team, which is Russia. And yeah, after posting I realized that we pretty much have to face Russia now if we're to make the semis. Damn.

I was talkn bout U.S.A.
Didn't pay attention to "canadadave's" username haha
 
Not really dude
They were sloppy the whole game. Bad turnovers led to a lot of USA's best scoring opportunities. If Canada had their heads in the game (and had gone with Luongo or Fleury), things would have been a lot different.
Luongo, NOT Fleury.
Fleury hasn't had a very good season this year, but he's far better in clutch games than Lu. Still, I'd say Luongo is team Canada's safest choice.
 
Congrats to the America team. I still have to think that Canada has a better chance to win the gold, even if they now have a longer, harder road to get there. I guess we'll just have to see.

Fleury isnt even close to Luongo. And Brodeur doesn't have it anymore which is why I was shocked they didn't go with Luongo today.
I wonder if they go with him from now on though.
 
Pen's fan eh?

Well when your stuck in FL for years, taking the most shots against in the league, you aren't winning a cup.
Even in VAN he takes a crapload of shots.
Also Fleury is THIRD goalie for Canada. So Stevie Y and I agree.
:p

Finland game on now.....wooooo what a day for hockey.
 
Now I know a little more about Ice Hockey than I did earlier. Some of those hits were good. Heck here in Australia we had better coverage than NBC (from I hear online).

Well that's the thing. It wasn't even on NBC here. It was on MSNBC, one of NBC/Universal's network channels.

And so do I. I said Lu's the safest choice. Fleury's better when he's at the top of his game, but there's no time to get him there and no chance for him to rebound after a bad game.
 
Well I'm hoping that Babcock will finally take his head out of his ass and start Luongo in the next game.
