The World Cup of Hockey

[Jerichoholic23]

The Finals are tonight. I think Canada is going to win 5-1. Atleast the 2 best teams are in the finals. They are also the 2 teams that were in the tournament that cared the most. It ashame that the American team and their fans don't care about this tournament. Most of them would rather talk about the first week on the NFL than talk about some of the best hockey played in a long time. Its too bad that tonight will be the last game for awhile.

What a beautiful game that was. I've never really taken notice of how good of a team that Finland has but still Canada comes out on top.

Well, I guess that's it. It was a good game and I savored every last minute of it. I'm upset it didn't last 20 Overtimes, but I guess those 60 minutes will have to do.

See ya hockey, hope you come back soon.

Well, that was the last time we see hockey for a while. Good game, I'm not really surprised that Canada won. The players that they have are some of the NHL's best.

Well, here's to a long period of time without hockey **raises glass**

Well... Let The Lockout Begin!

Lets make a pool:

How long will the lockout last?

I'll say this; if Thornton plays in Europe like he played here in the World Cup, he'll be the best player in the world this year.

Ok....I should've posted this last night but I'm gonna do it now. It was a great tournament from Canada and quite impressive considering more then half the team is under the age of 25. If t he NHL does send players to the 2006 Olympics we're in great shape. Top to bottom pretty much everyone contributed. We got to witness a nice mix of the past and the future and all signs look good for Canadian hockey.

Canada is #1 in hockey now. Winning the gold medal in the Olympics and back to back World Championships and now the World Cup.

This lockout doesn't appear to be ending anytime soon...and as a fan of hockey in the United States, this disappoints me. I had planned to go to an Islanders game this year, but I can now thank the owners for throwing a wrench as heavy as Tom Arnold's marriage to Roseanne into those plans

About the game last night...I was rooting for Finland to win, only because a friend of mine was over watching the game as well, and rooting for Canada

McCabe has already backed out, as has Aki Berg.

Not sure about Belak - I'd think he'd want to play in the AHL and make decent money [maybe a grand a week] than play in the OSHL and make $400 a week.

Edit: But there he is - playing in the OSHL.

Along with Brian Gionta, Dan Cloutier, Andrew Raycroft, and a host of other NHL'ers. Huh, looks like this one didn't fizzle out after all.
