Rush17 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 it will never be the same with willie as the coach and linden vey / mason Raymond on the roster. this isnt an episode of a bizaro world. i hate the nhl for skipping and i hate the Olympics for threatening to ban nhl players from the following event. (for skipping out on this one) can we just have our full hockey olmypic teams please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note, I had always assumed Wojtek Wolski was a European player. He had such a promising start to his career with the Avs and then fell off the map. Yeah, I thought for sure he was Polish. Even Wikipedia says he was born there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

189lb enforcers? Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I have zero interest in watching that roster. Not even if they are wearing a Team Canada sweater. I wonder how big of a drop there will be in TV ratings this time and how long it will be until Gary squeezes the money out of the whole thing. Watching the world’s best was fun while it lasted.

Boudrias Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Of course I will watch. Canadian hockey players playing their hearts out for their country. That said I have no use for the IIHF which is populated by a bunch of Euro carpetbaggers. Graft and corruption. They knew the Russians were doping for decades but took their payola under the table. The 'non' Russian team will surly unfurl a Russian flag after their win and skate the ice with it. 'So bad, so sad!' If EP makes Team Sweden I will watch him as well. Hope he does not go however.

BananaMash Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Don't debate the fact that Marc-Andre Gragnani is a certified frickin' legend. How many defensemen position themselves at the top of the circle in the offensive zone instead of the blueline? Just one. Gragnani. How many defensemen spend more time behind the oppositions net than his own net? Just one. Gragnani. Don't even tell me he's not a big game player. Gragmoney is A POINT PER GAME in the NHL playoffs. Good lord, can we even stop this guy? Canada's gold medal destiny is sealed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apollo Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I was %100 behind the Swedes in 2014 gold medal game... I'm glad I can cheer for my team Canada again. Babcock ruined Sochi for me. POS... not to mention garbage sacks like Keith and Doughty. Really love this team they've put together. Here's to hoping they can win gold again. Would love to see Vey Day run wild and dance Voynov in the final and score the OT winner. LONG LIVE LINDEN VEY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
