Ice Hockey - World Championship 2007 - Moscow

[Tele]

I was reading about our team. You know our biggest win was over Denmark in 1949: 47 - 0 (PWNED)

 

[numbersix]

Some much for the Swedes.
3-0 Canada after the first period :canada:

Well, it's now official, Canada won. Gold medal game goes tomorrow.
There's always next year Castor

There's always next year Castor

Well next year its in Halifax, so maybe the year after next :lol:

 

[numbersix]

Actually it's split between Halifax and Quebec City (from what I was able to understand), although that seems a little weird to me being in two different locations.
But now that you mention it, two years from now does sound a little better....but Canada will still take home the hardware.

 

[Cman]

yeah, but i'm in halifax, so fuck quebec city lol

the reason was likely because they figured halifax wasn't big enough to host it alone (and our rink is crappy)

 

[numbersix]

You guys showed the world how to host the World Juniors a few years back, props.
Oh, and seconded on the whole QC thing, lol.

 

[CASTOR :::]

My congrats to Finland and Canadians fans.

Now, after our loss, you can win the medals. lol

See ya in Halifax.

p.s.
i will be canadian fan in final
and hope russia will beat sweden with big score.

p.s.s.
finland injured Markov, Schastlivyy. bastards

 

[numbersix]

i will be canadian fan in final

That's good to know.
If it's any consolation, I was kinda hoping we'd be playing Russia in the final as I don't think Finland will put up real fight.

 

[CASTOR :::]

I don't think Finland will put up real fight.

Yeah. Finland worse than Sweden.
They are will be play in defence ... but if you open Sweden defence -> you will open Finland defence more easily. i hope so

Finland - not champion team

It's always fun to watch rus vs can. I've always thought they were the only team worthy of playing against Canada (besides the sweds). Canada had their own war with Russia during the cold war.

 

[Cman]

FINNISHED!!!!!!!

Canada perfect 9-0 versus 8 different teams

 

[numbersix]

Oh, I see what you did there
Congrats to the boys for bringing the gold back home.

:canada:

 

[Tele]

w00t!

 

[CASTOR :::]

My congrats to Canadiens.
Best team than Finland

And don't wait gold medals in Halifax. Host country cant win gold medal about 20 years.
lol

Ice Hockey World Championship 2007 Moscow

You beat me to it Cait. I was just about to post thie same DGB article. I loved the Phil Kessel line.

 

[Cman]

This is a pretty old thread lol.

I actually attended the IIHF Worlds in Halifax in 2008. It was fun, although Canada didn't win, as Castor predicted. I believe they lost to Russia in the Gold Medal game.

I also attended the IIHF Worlds last year in Denmark. That was also a lot of fun and my first time visiting Denmark.

I recommend going to the tournament some year, for anyone who likes hockey. It's almost like going to a music festival or something. Great fan atmosphere and lots of partying going on outside the rink.

PS. Latvians are crazy as fuck lol

 

[Cman]

But in 2010, the young guys will be well seasoned and hopefully in their primes, so we will kick some serious ass in Vancouver.

Called it.

 

[Cman]

Being Canadian, I often forget the lower divisions exist lol, but I wish the best of luck to all the countries fighting to win. Hockey is for everyone and I encourage all countries to play it.
