[metalan2]

If USA loses in the World Juniors and 90% of the country doesn't know it, did they really lose?

90%?


Try 99%. I however do know about it, and I'm ****ing pissed.

How can any true hockey fan like Mrazek and the way he's acting, just stick to football and basketball.

Played hockey all my life and I love it. Who are you to tell what is "hockey behaviour" ?

 

[eli J]

Gonna be really interesting to see what the USA does against Canada. Can't see them getting as many chances, but I can't see a Canadian goalie stealing the show like Mrazek either.

 

[Bojovnik]

I knew this Mrazek guy was going to be a bit of a loon when I saw he wore #2; I mean, what the hell.

#2 is a common number for goalies in both the Czech Republic and Slovakia. It comes from the time when the goalies for teams wore #1 and #2

 

[22Brad Park]

One good thing Blais never ever coach again IN USA hockey.

 

[batsui]

Holik got player of the game? WTF?

See Americans. They booed Holik too.

The crowd didn't boo Holik, they booed Mrazek not getting it. Slight but important difference.

 

[DaveG]

Any chance we can send Blais back to Omaha before the Canada game and the relegation round?

 

[PerpetualTankYear]

I also find it halarious how Canada was booing the crap out of this guy, and talking about how much of a tool he is. Now look, he's the coolest guy in Alberta.

 

[MOGiLNY]

Mrazek must be having a time of his life between them winning such a tough game and then 20,000 people chanting his name

 

[RebelMe]

Mrazek's celebrations were a bit too much for me, but other than that (+incredibly dull commentary in Czech TV) thoroughly entertaining game!

 

[JetsFanInVic2011]

Screw hockey. Coyotes suck, Team USA sucks.

And that cocky SOB goalie needs to get a wake up call.

And of course, Canada is classy, as always.

Thank you.

 

[Royal Canuck]

somewhere in this World Shane Prince is smiling. USA is out of the medal rounds! this is incredible.

 

[22Brad Park]

Your tears give me pleasure.

haha and knowing habs behind Bruins as usual give me plaeasure

 

[wahsnairb]

I wonder how many Americans are going to ***** and whine about the chant the crowd just did.

why would it be a problem? it was canadians doing it hahahah

canadians are cute like carebears.. not a threat or a harm.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Nah we will wait until Canada chokes again and comes out with their "If only our best players were here" ones.

I was actually trying not to enter the Canada vs US thing, because I was cheering for the US, but this is gonna get nasty now.

 

[Cam98]

usa is done, no way denmark beats finland.

 

[caz16]

How can any true hockey fan like Mrazek and the way he's acting, just stick to football and basketball.

Someone said it earlier - they are teenagers - they are incredulously happy that they beat the US for the first time in 7 years. Give them a break!

I don't like the Canadian fans acting like Habs fans though.

 

[Evil Doctor]

Oh, and before I forget....

Welcome back Czech Republic, welcome back, you were missed...

 

[BobDobolina]

I dislike people constantly complaining about classless and whatnot around here... but the fans singing the "na na na na, goodbye" song to teenagers when it's not even Canada playing them is classless as ****.

Couldn't agree more. Something is really wrong with those people.

 

[SabresBillsBuffalo]

Lets go Russia

 

[tantalum]

U can bet USA will play dirty vs Canada tomnorrow.Would not want to be a skilled forward tomorrow for Canada,What they gonna do now suspend them.

I doubt it. THey seem like decent kids.

 

[Muuri]

Finland vs Czechs for the 2nd place of the group

 

[Beerfest*]

As a Flames fan it was nice to see Arnold get player of the game for the USA.

 

[trellaine201]

lol at player of the game, what a travesty!

 

[BobDobolina]

Oh, and before I forget....

Welcome back Czech Republic, welcome back, you were missed...

We all hope they can come back but this is only one year. They have been impressive though and all the credit to them.
