WJC Bronze Medal Game: Jan 5 GDT - Sweden vs. USA

[Weide]

Damn that announcer chick in the arena sucks. Her english sucks and so does her swedish. Is that the best Leksand can find?

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Where is Kane projected to go in the draft? How high? Any opinions?

 

[QcS]

After watching a few games in French I started to like French langauge. I wish I could speak it.

I know I know.. gay post.

nothing gay about liking a foreign language! And if you want to speak it, you can learn it. It''s not as hard as some say it is.

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

Kane scored. USA is up 1:0

Hopefully Flyers will pick him up, him and Cherepanv.

Do the Flyers have 2 top 10 picks? If they don't I doubt they will be able to get Cherepanov.

Top 3

Well I am hoping for Forsbergs trade and I am hoping Cherepanov will go in top 20 just because Russia did not sign agreement with NHL. I am doing a lot of hoping.

Kane will probably go in top 5.

Kane 5 goals and Cherepanov with 5 goals. I want them both to be drafted by the Flyers. (wet dream)

Lol nothing wrong with that. I'm hoping for the same thing and he slips to where ever the Rangers are picking.

 

[Blue Line Turnover]

Punch to the face? Lol. He was playing defense and his hands got high. It was a borderline call.

"Laughs about it"? Was it really not clear to you what he's laughing about?

He's obviously losing his cool. His skill is unmatched, but he needs to be more composed. I know its a lot to expect for someone so young, but he's also expected to have a professional demeanour.

 

[kovalev27hf]

buddy you take a stupid penalty you go to the box do your time and keep your mouth shut. not the time or the place to be joking around with your teammate, screwing with canadian fans, etc.... typical move from this kid.

 

[Chimpradamus]

I really don't like all this diving that has been apparent through the tournament so far. It feels like a soccer tournament in southern Europe.

I literally have no idea what you're talking about. What about that penalty was "obviously" proof he is "losing his cool"? It appeared to be an extremely common penalty. Guy is skating into the zone 1 on 1, defensemen steps up to play the body, get his hands high, the offensive player falls down, the ref calls a penalty. Did the obvious losing of cool occur there? Or when he got to the penalty box and laughed at the fans? Is laughing "obvious" proof of "losing his cool"?

Fine, if that's your view, you're entitled to it. But why blatantly distort reality and claim that he "punched someone in the face" when that wasn't even close to what happened? And why say he was laughing about taking a penalty when that wasn't what happened? Why not just say what you just said about not yucking it up with fans when you've taken a penalty? Nobody would have called you out on that statement because it would have been a fair opinion instead of a personal cheapshot.

English is not my 1st language.. but I am liking French...

 

[Kaktus*]

if anything, the ability to laugh proves he DIDN'T lose his cool.

I believe that is what he was implying.

 

[Foy]

I believe that is what he was implying.

And I was agreeing with him.

 

[Kaktus*]

Swedes shot frrm outside.. No real scoring chances.

Wake up damn it.

 

[Foy]
