OMG 6-4 LOL. Good thing we have 2 more to spare. :S
You can't say this kind of hockey is entertaining. Same with the Spengler Cup, which I really love to watch.

It's not good hockey, but it's so unpredictable, haha.

Congrats to Canada with a bronze, then. I'll go out on a limb here, and say this one is a done deal.

Noreau has been freaking great for Canada this tournament. Hope they close it out because he deserves a medal.

Well i'm not gonna complain about the result as the Czechs just couldn't score. But the f***er who decided to call that goal back should never again come close to an international hockey game. An absolute disgrace to the game.

I think this game is also a perfect illustration why the Canadian team lost to Germany. They're a bit mentally fragile . You saw it against Germany too . When it rains it just pours.

Yay! Good for Canada. They look happy to win Bronze (another reason you can tell it's not NHL players, lol).

Much better result then most media were giving canada this olympics.

Canada was expected to be where the americans ended up. No where close to a medal.

You don’t see gloves and sticks flying into the air or anything.
I have no doubt some players WANTED to.

And of course there is still disappointment. But you can't tell me they don't look happy. We've had Canadian teams in the past show up to Bronze Medal games just because they have too. Otherwise they probably wouldn't even show.

Congrats to the boys on the Bronze! But, this thread is a sad illustration of what happens when you don't have NHL'ers in the Olympics.........

Considering it's our like... P team (or lower) against some countries A or B teams... how upset can Canadian fans be with Bronze? Sure, it sucks that we lost to Germany. But that's also a large amount of their best players who have played together for years.
