it was a great game!! Congrats, I am kind of glad as now we do not have to read the news regarding the mass suicides in Canada today!!

you are funny .......... :321GFY

Well said DH..... :)

All is right with the universe.

:glugglug

Congratulations my Canadian Friend! I am glad you won your country is hockey:)


Mr. Romance

Fuckin right!!!!!!!!!!!

I am glad, cause I really didn't want the attendance to be low at Phoenix forum this year. Nor did I want to have to listen to all the excuses from those that had the balls to still show up.

Truth be told. That was a great fucking GAME!

one of the best i've seen, and i've been to probably 100 NHL games in my life.

great fucking game!

As much as I hated us losing the gold, that was an amazing game...

great game. now back to the slow, clutch and grab NHL. lol

For those of you who are living on the moon and missed the game ;-)

great game :) see you guys in 4 years

ha! I would say the US gave us a good run for our money. After taking us out after the first, we squeaked out beating them on this final match up.

Although I'm a proud Canadian, I still think the US is a close #2.

Great fucking game.

BAH! :mad:

I could have taken that alot better (and yes, it was a terrific game) if the US women's team had beaten the Canadian women. That was also a SUPERB game and for those who think women's hockey is pussy...well...let me just tell you there was some face shoving, board checking hard ass drama. I thought the ladies could have been a little better in their celebrating though, a little tacky for my taste. Save the cigars and drinks for off-ice time.

Great hockey all round tho:thumbsup

Congrats Mark, we let you win. Obama made a deal if we let you win we take over Molson... So now it will be called Bud!!!EYYYYYYY. BTW I would have never let the 5 hole goal in.. Just saying. All kidding aside CONGRATS!!

This was a fantastic game and Canada deserved the gold :thumbsup

And DH you have every right to celebrate.. but if USA had won and someone from the USA said the above, wouldn't we be called " Ugly Americans" , Gloating Americans etc etc?

Look forward to the next one and once again Congrats Team Canada!

One American was cute, #54 :)

Good for Canada. I (and most Americans) don't give a shit about hockey.

Yup, me too. :thumbsup

I love this pic!!!!!!! :1orglaugh

All these Canadian hockey victory threads and status updates are intriguing. I've seen some pretty mean-spirited ones. Sure America wanted to win, but losing isn't crushing the country either. Had the US won Canada would be in mourning. It's just Monday here.

America loves a good party. That's why when Olympic hockey and the World Cup come around we participate and enjoy, but when it's done so is the fervor over it.

It's back to the NBA season here. Spring training is underway and the NFL draft is in 6 weeks. Those are our sports. Football rules and there is no close 2nd. Hockey isn't even 4th here, NASCAR is bigger (not really sure what that says about our country or your game).

So my dear Canadian friends...we're truly very happy for you. Great game, great Olympics; congrats all the way around. But really, what's with the attitude?

As an American, do you really have to ask that question? REEEEEALLY?

im stoked for all three teams that made it to the top. no attitude. sure was a fuckload of attitude from many Americans on this board when they beat us the first time around though...

Much rather you whiny bitches that someone else.

:)

Congrats to Canada All the way. Great show and Great work. well deserved!!!

So please tell me what you think this board would have been like today if America won that hockey or if they came first in the Medal Standing?

You Americans would hardly be humble would you now, we would have seen this board on fire as to how you live in the greatest country in the WORLD, the best athletes BLAH BLAH FUCKING BLAH, how you are the best at everything.... :1orglaugh

Like I wrote in my post, I'm merely intrigued by it all. I'm all about celebrating a victory and Canada absolutely deserves to boast a bit about winning. And a good-natured poke or two is warranted as well. We were all teasing each other quite a bit before the game and after the last one.

I'm not calling DH out or anything, I know him and know he's doing it all in good fun. I just happened to ask the question in his thread. I've seen some mean-spirited posts and FB updates since the game ended. I'm curious about it is all. I find poor winners more interesting than poor losers. I understand why someone gets shitty when they lose.

I've always been under the impression that Canada has a more polite demeanor than the US. I would've sooner expected this behavior from Americans to be honest, and I would have called them out on it had I seen it.

So can you answer it? Celebrating, boasting, even gloating a bit (although it's rather unattractive) I get, but what's with the "Fuck You" attitude?

I'm confused about this topic. Canada was the favorite the entire time, while nobody thought the US would even reach the medal round. We were 1 goal away from victory in sudden death against the best team on the planet. I'm pretty sure the US team can hang their heads high because they played their hearts out.

Like anyone really expected any different?

lol great game...US almost gave us all heart attacks

I agree. America really played well. I mean Miller was amazing, Rafalski and Parise were just stellar.

I guess in the end all we are saying is





SUCK IT BITCHES WE WON. NEEEEEENER NEEEEEENERRRRRR

Win or lose, Miller deserved to be MVP and it wasn't even close. He was phenomenal.

Ooh, turn-based games!
