But hey, we Canuck fans are used to that
If we lose I look forward to the Eastern TSN/Sportsnet Media and Don Cherrys excuses - "No Tavares. No Stamkos". Whatever helps them sleep at night
Canadian mens hockey isn't producing the big game warriors like they use to. Our infamous Canadian passiveness culture is starting to show its ugly head in our mens top hockey programs. Not enough arrogance, too nice
Archie Fucking Bunker right here ladies an' germs....

Next he'll be knocking hockey itself. "What a pussy sport this is, guys skating around with helmets and pads. Give me b-ball anyday . Now those are real athletes "
SOCHI, Russia — It wasn’t a fair fight. It was Canada vs. Latvia. It was a country with 2,631 indoor ice rinks versus a country with 17. It was the defending Olympic champion versus a team that had to qualify for the tournament, didn’t win a preliminary game and entered the playoffs as the 12th and final seed. It was a rested team versus one that had played the night before.
The Canadian men’s hockey team was like Xerxes’ army in the movie “300,” an overwhelming force coming in waves and crashing into the shields of committed men fighting for their country. Their numbers counted for nothing – until the bitter end.
The Latvians have a small country but big cojones. They know Weber’s shot is so fearsome it ripped through the net during a game at the last Olympics. Yet in the third period, Oskars Bartulis blocked one of his shots, collapsed in pain and still rose to his feet to finish his shift. “It’s fun,” Bartulis said, before thinking better of it. “It’s not fun.”
