USA vs Canada Hockey
- Thread starter RUFUS
- Start date
Very good game so far.
We should have pulled Brodeur after the second goal.

Up yours Canada!
I don't agree, neither of those was his fault. Crosby deflected the first one, second he was screened badly.
The 5th goal wasn't his fault.
im crying now
So does Canada have to commit suicide now?
USA beats Canada, hahahahahahahha. How does that feel Canada.
Hell of a game for US and Ryan Miller.

holy ****, kessler's shot. awesome
I felt that he was too confident with his handling skills, which killed them off the bat. We got worked over in the third with the penalties until the last few minutes.
Miller deserved that win, he played outstanding.

America, F**K YEAH!

for real, hell of a goalie there.
hockey fail
Miller is one cool customer.
Ha ha.... the echo of the public address anouncer in the arena.

miller is a boss. the 2:00-1:00 in the third was the craziest min. ever. still crying
CA NA DA not.
the whole team really did a great job of making sure the shots were blocked there in the last 2 minutes.
That's true, he was too aggressive about handling the puck at times. I was wondering how the change from NHL to international rules would work out for him, since he was always pretty free roaming. Guess he got a little too excited about the new freedom.
Miller played unbelievably well. He faced a ton of shots, tons of pressure, and did what he needed to do to give his team the win.
you still have health care....you win.
I wouldn't gloat too much. The US isn't a great hockey nation, Canada just excels at failure.
Hey... Canada is winning at ice dancing. So you got that going for you.
Miller stole it, and... Brodeur did the opposite. (I blame Pronger too.) What was the shot total? I heard that Team Canada had 20 shots in the first period. Miller had everything on the crease, I only saw one rebound.
Team Canada needs a serious tune-up after f'ing SWITZERLAND took them to the shootout on Thursday night. Hopefully this lights a fire.
Americans: Enjoy the win. Great game, but it's not like gold or elimination was on the line tonight. To keep going, Canada plays an extra game against Germany then plays Russia in the 1/4 finals. Next in line behind Brodeur is Luongo, and then Fleury... if Team Canada beats Russia, then odds are we'll see you again.

Canada does own the podium. They are just loaning it out for a couple of weeks.
And to make matters worse, Canada has now lost their Boner.

sulu "mind melded" with him.....
Plus y'all still have Bryan Adams and Night Ranger......
That was a hell of game. I'm not sure if the US was just playing "prevent" defense on their heels the last 10 minutes, or if Canada decided to finally start playing. Either way, what a frikkin onslaught that last 10 minutes was. Then when Kesler scored the empty netter, I LOL'd.
It wasn't so much the US sitting back, but Canada just pouring it on and pinching and cheating on defense. They got very lucky on that 3 chance breakaway sequence. They also appeared to be rolling out Drew Doughty every other shift on defense and OMG is that kid a stud.
Oh how the noose gets tighter. Yeah, the Canadians were taking the play to the Americans most of the game but then Marty decided to start two pad stacking and turning the puck over. Canada has some goalie problems. Miller played incredible and they weathered the storm.
The best part about the Canadians losing is now they are going to have to play the Russians and the Sweds to make it to the finals.
I am pretty sure Mike Milbury hates everything about the US.

Canada better watch out. If there is one thing the Germans are known for, it's their hockey.
I couldn't stay awake to watch the Sweden vs. Finland game but the other two games I watched were awesome.
As USA Hockey fans we have to be happy but also remember that there is a lot of hockey to be played in this Olympic tourney and one win over Canada doesn't make us a lock for a Gold medal. Heck we are still an underdog to medal at all I'd say.
But who doesn't love rooting for the underdog right!!!??

The Germans SHOULD be beatable.
However, with the stink of San Jose Shark choke in the Canadian locker room, anything can happen.
Yeah, after they beat the Germans then they will play Russia and then probably Sweden or Slovakia

Too much pressure on the Canadians...the whole country hanging on every shift. We won, but lets wait til tourneys end to collect our medals. Canada is still and will probably always be, the dominant hockey country in the world, no matter what the results of the WJC or Olympic tourney. NHL will continue to be filled with star Canucks, as will the other pro and Junior leagues...
