There was no question Canada would win Gold. I'm really surprised Finland absolutely stomped the US for bronze. I think US was shattered after the Canada loss which lead to an easy victory for Finland.

Finland also faced their archenemy Sweden before the bronze game...

Who said they didnt?



I was walking down along the street and I heard this voice saying, "Good evening, Mr. Dowd." Well, I turned around and here was this big six-foot rabbit leaning up against a lamp-post. Well, I thought nothing of that because when you've lived in a town as long as I've lived in this one, you get used to the fact that everybody knows your name.

It was a very comfortable win. Swedes were caught with their lines too long on the ice and paid for it.

Just that Team Finland could have been also down after the lost against their neighbourhood country.

They could have, but if they were they certainly went about it better than the US. They moved forward and decided to win Bronze.

Yep, true story. 

I bet the final breakdown for Team USA was that double goal in the beginning of the 2nd round. Before that USA played quite ok and I could have never guessed the final outcome of the game.

Allowing NHL level players in the Olympics is a joke. The whole 12 team thing is a farce to give the medals to 3 of 4 national teams. The NHL season gets disrupted and pros get injured(I hate the Isles but cmon......John Tavares ffs). Either go back to amateurs(no NHL/KHL players) or just drop it all together. Drop womens as well only 2 countries play. Sooooooooooooo excited for the season to start back up.


Olympics are for the countries best athletes to participate and represent their country in. Why would you not want NHL level players in it? Injuries are apart of the sport, could happen pre-seaon, practice, tournament, or during the season. 



2018 will be interseting, owners down want them going, players want to go.. I hope they go..


and not surprised by the outcome. Canada had SOLID defence. Thats what wins you cups, thats what wins you gold. the transitions were amazing, and sid the kid finally got something today, even though it really didnt matter.



I am Torgo, I take care of the place while the master is away.

"Hes the clown that makes the dark side fun.. Torgo!"

Ha.. i won my bet, but i wasnt around to gloat because im on a better forum!  See ya guys on Viz

Team Canada looked strong in this game, the defense making the difference.  

Good strategic game with Crosby's breakaway goal being the highlight for me.



Congrats to Team Canada!

With that out of the way, message to Mr. Crosby: think it's about time to introduce the Pens to Lord Stanley's Cup, yet? :-/
