kassquatchian Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 An upset for sure! Nice to see ovie and malkin out. Serious contention in the fins. 3-1 final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kassquatchian Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Russian team just storms by media and ovie the only one to stop and talk. Looked like he was cryimg a bit. Good bye russia! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quaz Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Upsetting for the Russians for sure, but given their play I'd say the Russians beating the Fins would have been a greater upset. :-P There was no urgency to their game and they were reluctant to go to the hard areas to get those garbage goals. Perimeter players only looking for the pretty pass and dirty dangles. I never noticed just how lazy Ovi is out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AriGold Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Being honest i really had hoped for Canada vs Russia in the finals. I wanted Canada to be the team to eliminate them. More heartbreaking to be in the finals IMO. On the bright side one of the biggest rivalries in sport can take off again. Sweden vs Finland.

\/ijay Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 It's the russian's own fault. The ice has been garbage and big rinks do not fit their style of play when you have malkin and ovechkin, two big, physical, skilled players. The whole thing with the disallowed goal in the USA game was due to some crapty pegs for the nets as well. I watched that game live and was wondering why no Russian player simply put the net back into place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALGARY! Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Ovie has always been a lazy bum, his idea of backchecking is to go for a shift change when the puck leaves the attacking zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avelanch Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Ovie has always been a lazy bum, his idea of backchecking is to go for a shift change when the puck leaves the attacking zone hey... sometimes he'll go back to the red line and wait for an outlet pass too!

spliced Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 It still makes me laugh thinking about all the people that said Russia were gonna have an advantage playing at home. No actually have ridiculous amounts of pressure stressing you out isn't a good thing. Then combine that with Russia's unique ability to completely implode when things aren't gong well and we get this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 hey... sometimes he'll go back to the red line and wait for an outlet pass too! Add Daniel and Henrik's goal totals together. Then double it. You have arrived at Ovechkin's goal total. Carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRussianRocket. Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Lol, always satisfying seeing the Russians lose. However, lots of props and respect to Ovie. All the Russian players left right after the loss and didnt even bother talking to media whereas Ovie dug deep and was the only Russian to do so. Speaks volumes of the type of charachter he has and has vastly improved on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel: 304 Henrik: 191 total: 495 Times 2: 990 Ovie: 411 result: nope Take Daniel and henrik's playoff points, divide by 2 you have still surpassed Ovie's playoff points. Carry On.
