Boudrias Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 6 hours ago, Toews said: Perry is also one of the most decorated junior players of all time. He won everything worth winning in his London Knights career and also had his number retired as the all time leading scorer there. His resume top to bottom is one of the most impressive I have seen. First ballot HOFer and the Ducks will likely retire his number as well. I have a tough time warming up to Perry even during this tourney. That kick on Laine was flagrant and should have got him a suspension. A lot of his 'stuff' is on the cheap side. It takes a no prisoners attitude to win and he has that. I thought Schieffle(?) from the Jets really cranked his physical game up and played the style of game that is hardcore Canadian as a contrast to Perry. I'd have him on my team anytime! When the Jets get Laine they will be able to challenge the Oilers IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 An extremely overweight American Hockey fan snuck in Team Russia's locker room before the Bronze Medal Game between Team USA and Team Russia and filmed himself urinating on one of Pavel Datsyuk's skates and jersey.

They get props from me for effort. Setting up that locker room must have taken some work. Finding that fat guy probably would not have been that hard.

Wow! They sure love hockey. It just shows us, as Canadians, that other countries love "OUR" game too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that only Finnish viewers? Or does that include Canadian viewers as well? I know I watched the game, very exciting. The Fins looked devastated at the end, and felt for them a little bit. Probably a few tears in that room afterwards. Great for Canada though. Kind of annoyed when the panel was discussing after the game, calling McDavid's goal the "Golden Goal", even though he scored it early in the game, it proved to be the winner. Still, to me, a Golden Goal is when it's tied and next goal wins (Crosby). I mean, if Hutton played and stepped on the ice and it went off his butt in the 1st period, would he be credited with the Golden Goal? Highly unlikely it would even be brought up. Wondering, during the USA v Russia Bronze game. Did Matthews play? I noticed he had no shots. Way to show up for the big game kid. IMO, Laine should be ranked #1.

He won 14 out of the 15 that he took against Russia's best players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Balboa Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Man, the WC has come a long way in terms of quality and viewship. I remember back when you'd have someone like Cooke on your top line and he was the star player. I'd like to watch some good old IIHF Division 3 teams play too...
