davidl Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 The Russian team just handed our asses to us with 5 unanswered goals in the third period. Final score: 5-3. Still a proud Canadian but a little sheepish. It looked like it would be our game after the first period. Groan. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevef Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Relax guys. USA was "favored" to win and got Bronze.. Canada looked tired in the third! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShredAstaire Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I dont care who was favored to be where....we gave up 5 goals straight in the 3rd period. Unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevef Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 You're right Shred. 5 in a row is ugly to say the least. I saw a bit of the early part of the 3rd, Canada looked "beat" after the too many men penalty. 2 goals in 13 seconds soon after the penalty. Really Ugly.

Artie Owl Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Well, look at it this way; our guys come home with silver, we don't say much and life continues as usual. If the Russians came home with silver most of them would end up in some acid mine in Siberia, so there's that at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidl Posted January 6, 2011 Author Share Posted January 6, 2011 Here's the latest...the Russians were kicked off their plane in Buffalo before taking flight for being drunk and disorderly. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Well I live in Buffalo and having the World Juniors here was great. Hopefully our city was a good host; I know fans ate a lot of chicken wings! It's fitting for Buffalo because we have more hockey fans per capita in the entire US (sorry Detroit but we are the TRUE Hockeytown). No one is close to Canadian fans though. To our friends in the North we do feel for you. The arena was a sea of red. Canadians surely know how to support their team. From what I understand the Russian players were all tired and most of them were half asleep when they boarded the plane. Many passengers didn't understand why they got booted off the plane.
