Well Animal House is no Seven Samurai or Stagecoch or Citizen Kane or The Maltese Falcon or M or Metropolis or even my personal favorite BladeRunner.

Watching the first line play tonight, I´m pretty sure that Saku gave up before the game started.

Congratulations Canada.

Now it`s fact: capital of Finland is still Loserville.

Finns should be ashamed of themselves. Especially Selänne. Can`t wait the next interview where Selänne cries how NHL-coaches don`t understand how good player he is and how much he needs more ice-time.

I´m back to sleep

I'm sorry SergeiK, the Finns have nothing to be ashamed about. They're a great team.

 

[Trottier]

Great entertainment.

Guess tonight is yet another example of how Marty Brodeur just happens to always play on good teams. Three Cups, Gold Medal, WC....Guy is so "lucky".

Likewise, to those here who have suggested Kipprusoff just got on a lucky hot streak this past NHL season:

Yep, Mario is slow. And still brilliant.

Why I love hockey: the courage of Mikko Eloranta, knowing full well he was going to get clobbered by Regher.

Congrats to Canada...again.

And now...fade to black.

[Jussi]

Well, we put up a good fight. The other team was just too good tonight. But next time Gadget, next time...

 

[fullmetalninja]

[Mikos87]

Congratualtions to the Finns for an excellent game. This is just the begining for you guys.

 

[Vic Rattlehead*]

[Kravitch]

It's STILL Canada's game.

I'm actually disappointed the Fins havent won, I feel like a traitor. Winning against finland isn't sweet at all, I don't hate them, I like 'em

 

[clefty]

Deserving win for Canada.

Without question, the best team of the tournament.

 

[Habs Icing]

It's STILL Canada's game.

Wrong, man. The game belongs to the world. I thought the Finns just proved that.

I couldnt agree more

 

[psycho_dad*]

Congrats to Canada!

Strangest thing....Finland was actually better 5 on 5 and Canada had the better goaltending. I was expecting Finland to survive only on kipper, but in the final he was the sore spot. Second goal was a softy, like it or not. Overall it was very equal, Brodeur just won this one.

And I am sure we will NOT hear any cocky remarks after this game, since it was VERY close.

1st part is 100% true...Brodeur has always played on good teams. To the 2nd part, if it was'nt a lucky hot streak(coming from a goalie who played pretty damn bad the 2 seasons before), then what would you call it? Perhaps he'll be able to come close to repeating last season...but he could also return to his SJ form(posting 2.42 and then 3.25 GAA when given the chance to take the starting job). The point is, you can shake your head at people who think Kiprusoff was a fluke, but those people can shake their head right back at you for thinking he can repeat his performance.

 

[Fish on The Sand]

wtf. Lecavalier for mvp? What a joke.

 

[John Flyers Fan]

I thought Sakic should have been an all-tourney player and the MVP.

 

[Vic Rattlehead*]

Lecavalier is MVP. Brodeur should have been it.

 

[Enoch]

Lecavlier is the Tourny MVP....Is this an attempt to build up a new icon, or does everyone truly feel he was the tournaments best player? I had others on my short list, including a few on the losing team, but thats okay . Who would everyone else choose?

 

[jstreet]

Vinny Lecavalier - are you kidding me?

 

[Jussi]

Vinny????

 

[Jussi]

By god that trophy is UGLY!

 

[i am dave]

Man that trophy is ugly.
