Sorry, got lazy and got it from some site.

Canada actually needs to do well this year to avoid having to play extra games to get into the next olympics or some shit

Dastardly Jerks · (05-02-2012, 09:54 AM)

The IIHF is a harsh mistress...

GO TEAM CANADA. Looking forward to seeing Getzlaf and Perry contribute, 2010 style. Sbisa got rocked in an exhibition hit by Phaneuf, and Subban has already gotten injured. Good times.

All 64 games streamed or some shit.

PuppetSlave · (05-04-2012, 11:30 AM)

Norway is gonna get schooled tonight. :P

Only following the game on the net, am at work but can't believe the France -USA game is 2-3.

And France did the opening goal even! Well done France, keep it up.

PuppetSlave · (05-04-2012, 12:42 PM)

Well, that turned into a 7-2 rout. I am guessing US turned it up a gear and France couldn't really keep up.

Solo · (05-04-2012, 12:58 PM)

Subban missing the WHC with injury dampens my hype a bit. Nevertheless, Canada will dummy Slovakia today.

Patches got 3 points last night........against France.

Solo · (05-04-2012, 01:35 PM)

Yeah, at least I still have Patches, Eller and Plekanec to follow.

KillerMan91 · (05-04-2012, 01:42 PM)

Although I know that WHC is not that big in north america here in Finland it's like yearly religious event and now when the games are held here there is pretty big buzz in whole Finland especially as we won last year... So rooting for Finland although I must say that especially Canada and Sweden have way better teams this year than last year.

Cake Boss · (05-04-2012, 02:02 PM)

Going with Sweden this year.

Silfverberg, Karlsson and Alfie.

Entropia · (05-04-2012, 02:17 PM)

Nice, Benn puts us up.

PuppetSlave · (05-04-2012, 03:06 PM)

Equalized

Parch · (05-04-2012, 04:21 PM)

Decent game for Canada, but they'll have to play better than that if they're going to win this. It's always an adjustment in these early games to find the chemistry.

Cake Boss · (05-04-2012, 05:06 PM)

So Burrow might have a concussion?

Definitely. Jay Bouwmeester is one guy that really needs to step up his game. I lost count of how many poor decisions he made with the puck.

AAequal · (05-04-2012, 07:51 PM)

I really hope to see Finland and Sweden in the finals but I doubt it will happen. SWE is my guess for gold medal this year.

Cake Boss · (05-04-2012, 07:57 PM)

Karlsson sick pass to Siflverberg and he rips it.

Flying jizz everywhere.

PuppetSlave · (05-04-2012, 10:05 PM)

Really hope the referees step it up for the rest of the tournament. Only seen the Sweden Norway game but it was pretty damn bad. Hope it has been better in other games.

yankeehater · (05-05-2012, 06:04 AM)

I watched most of the reply of the USA game today. America fuck yeah!

Canada/USA in half an hour.

Brinbe · (05-05-2012, 05:02 PM)

One minute in, already down.

Solo · (05-05-2012, 05:15 PM)

Pacioretty-Statsny-Ryan

Wow, that is an impressive line for the US.

Solo · (05-05-2012, 05:59 PM)

Skinner!

calder · (05-05-2012, 06:05 PM)

Posted in the NHL thread:

Woke up just in time for Canada/US. Good to see Ladd and Kane again (ok slater too) it feels like the regular season ended 6 months ago.

I love the first round of the playoffs, but the second round my interest usually wanes a bit and I pay more attention to the WHC instead until the SC finals. Getzlaf/Perry combo has looked alright today, but damn Tavares/Skinner is a great duo.

Brinbe · (05-05-2012, 06:51 PM)

Tied up again. This has been a pretty good game.

calder · (05-05-2012, 07:02 PM)

Shit.

Solo · (05-05-2012, 07:07 PM)

Keith....WOW

calder · (05-05-2012, 07:07 PM)

Keith with the hammer! Tied again.

calder · (05-05-2012, 07:08 PM)

Wouldn't be shocked by another goal in regulation

Brinbe · (05-05-2012, 07:11 PM)

Insane haha

calder · (05-05-2012, 07:15 PM)

I consider a 4 on 3 almost a sure goal

Damn. Good kill going until the end. :/

1-0 Sweden after 1st. Franzen with goal.

Detroit 2-0

Kronwall scores.

Cake Boss · (05-05-2012, 08:36 PM)

Lol that PP looked all too familiar, the other team had the better chance with that 3on1 because Karlsson was way too deep in the zone.

KillerMan91 · (05-05-2012, 10:05 PM)

Really felt sorry for USA and Canadian players as they had to play for half empty arena because of insane ticked prices. Finnish ice hockey association really screwed up with the prices. Even the first game of Finland was not sold out (cheapest ticket costed 150€). I would have loved to go to match but as a student I really don't have 150€ for ice hockey game. =/

kassatsu · (05-06-2012, 03:43 AM)

No one from USA in hear shit talking :( Missed the game

Heretic · (05-06-2012, 06:55 AM)

USA! USA! USA!

ActStriker · (05-06-2012, 07:12 AM)

Didn't know this was going on :(

Go USA!

Rad- · (05-06-2012, 08:23 PM)

Perry and Getzlaf after the game:
