Dunny Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Oh no I won't have any of that false modesty. You're going to build your hopes up like a real man, Mr. Puckhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I always look forward to the unnecessary booing from the overreacting Canadian fans during this tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I always look forward to the unnecessary booing from the overreacting Canadian fans during this tournament. They'd Boo in Buffalo, but nobody is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 They'd Boo in Buffalo, but nobody is there. What does this even mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 That nobody attends the tournament when it was hosted in Buffalo, thus no booing of Canadian squad vs. Massive (formerly anyways, they've since ruined the tournament in Canada) crowds in Canada that leads to vociferous booing of American team. This was most prevalent the last time it was on West Coast I think (Erik Johnson, Jack Johnson teams) so Josh is as on the ball as ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear the fans led to a few of those “line brawls” they had a few years ago. I complained about the booing of the USA national anthem, but American athletes do worse than that. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 US can’t sustain offensive pressure, at all. One and done every time down the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 14-0 is totally normal for this level of competition and isn't a complete embarrassment to the game at all. IIHF totally aren't fucking clowns, and aren't scheduling these utterly meaningless games for the extra revenue or anything like that, I'm completely sure! I'm sure Kazakhstan also belongs here.

torontonyr Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Having defensemen in this tournament is good for the cupboard but boring to watch. Excited to see how Kravstov looks today vs a weak Denmark team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally, they should do what the NHL did with the World Cup. Have the big 5 plus one combined team of all the other European countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 lol.. No. That makes it an exhibition. The WC is ruined. Just axe the bottom two teams and play a full Round Robin. Top 4 to Semis. It's a basic format, but generates a little less revenue at the expense of integrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I'll add that all of Necas, Zadina, and Kaut have all been quiet as a mouse as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Anybody watching this? Does Kravtsov appear entirely uninterested or is it just me? Gorton in the house, too. Barely noticed him. A few times defensively. Is he shadowing Necas or something? I have heard Necas’ name a lot. Not that he’s been overly impressive. No one has. This game has been disappointing thus far.

Was just saying this to a friend. Never has the puck, looks like he doesn't care if he has the puck, not at all a dominant player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
