I like the "the trap is unbeatable" excuse. Especially since it was obvious Canada were the ones employing a traplike strategy much more than the russians ever did.

Only european-sissys care about international tournaments, good we have the Stanley cup where no european has any influence ;)

Canada was just playing possum, but somebody circled the wrong date on the calendar in the lockerroom so they didn't think the elimination round started until today.

We didn't have Gordie Howe and Jean Beliveau in the locker room!


There presence would have made the difference.

under my umbrella
a few good ones were..

Janet Gretzky bet on the russians!

The big ice = more trapping.. didn't hear much of this in Salt Lake..

It was Bertuzzi's fault... no wait.. it's McCabe! no wait.. it's all Crosby's and Spezza's fault.. nope.. it's Gretzky again.

The strike zone was too big... Oh wait, that's another sport.

"The lockout slowed the players down"

Funniest one I've heard so far is people blaming it on Steve Moore's lawsuit.

It lead directly to Bertuzzi's last penalty. The one AO scored on. Even Gretzky mentioned that it was a pick and the first one called all week at that. (Of course Gretzky failed to mention that Bert bowled the guy over)

i think it's pretty obvious that not having the lucky loony buried at center ice in '06 will ultimately be the demise of canadian hockey. :sarcasm:

Don Cherry didn't wear his big fluffy Canada hat.

Don Cherry jinxed Canada by predicting they'd win during the game

just like he jinxed the Leafs every saturday night all season long

Yeah, because we all know that every single player did the same thing during the lockout.
