another sport where the USA thinks they are better then everyone but lose a lot when confronted by another internation team....
.....bit like when they lost of Japan at Baseball a few years ago!

The worst losers ever? Were not the ones gloating about a win right now are we? It amazes me how one is so quick to judge others, when they should be looking within. And, to the chap who referred to the loss in a baseball game, USA has a right to be proud of a great game that was created in their country. So much hate from such a small group.

Anyway...I think Canada, Finland and Russia are the clear favourites at this point. Canada being the top fav.

Originally posted by spurs73I notice England has a great hockey team also. What's the matter they wouldn't let you in the US. That's why you're always taking shots at us.

fin-usa rematch is just about to begin! it's gonna be an intense battle, and I'm sure usa is screaming for revenge. hope this time we'll also have proper judging instead of the fiasco in the first game.
I watched that game, I couldn't believe they counted that goal! On ice officials didn't even catch it 🙁
Lets remember they even make mistakes in the NHL re-play on goals!

Originally posted by Very Rustyone finnish judge commented later that apparently the rules state that if the puck is inside the goal, the judge has no choice but accept the goal if the judges can't find a rip in the net... he also said that similar happens several times every season. which makes me wonder why the hell they don't make the nets tighter? it's ridiculous that such a thing is allowed to happen over and over again.

Originally posted by wormwoodI saw the replays over, and over, and over again, and it clearly shows that the puck went into the side of the net. The judge should have certainly saw that. Now we all know that pucks going into the side of the net just don't count as a goal.

The netting certainly couldn't have been very good for a puck to go through, and the organizers should have had those nets checked out before each game.
