I was saying Boo-urns...

It sucks!! All the sports channels I have and NONE of them showing the world championships!!

lol... ref is getting in the way as Petrangelo is racing around trying to kill a penalty (phanuef you goof),
so Alex just puts a hand in the middle of the ref's chest and pushes him the fuck out of the way.

I was wondering if that would have been a penalty / misconduct / suspension, but I guess the ref knew he was getting in the way too.

ooof, Burns just buried little Ryan Shannon.

Shannon took the hit to make the play (clear the zone on a PK), but Burns really laid into him.
reminded me of Jim Sandlak from his WJHC days.


jack Johnson scores on a breakaway coming out of said penalty.
Reimer, you suck. (so does Chris Setewart for that giveaway at the offensive blueline)

2-1 after 2 for the USA.

Conks has seen more rubber than *random poster's name*'s mother during shore leave.

Conks must think this is a Winter Classic game...

 

[postmaster]

wooo. Go USA!!!!!

Thanks Puck and Dash for the updates.

tavares bounces one in as a powerplay expires to tie it at 2.
those lacrosse hands come in handy.

Conklin is still under seige*.

Lots of room on the big ice.


Spezza top shelf laser about 5 second into the PP

[puckhead]

Reimer sucks.


USA (Stepan) ties it up on a powerplay.
Clusterfuck took an offensive zone slashing penalty.

Reimer getting about as much love from puck as former Canucks goalie Martin Brochu...

Reimer getting about as much love from puck as former Canucks goalie Martin Brochu...

the shots have got to be in the 50-20* range.

first goal was a rainbow wristshot from the blueline, and the next two just went right through him.
(goal 2 was a breakaway, so he gets a break on that)
US just has absolutely no business being in this game, except for reimer vs. conklin.




*edit: 46-19, but we did hit 3 posts

its funny that I can remember the last game he played for the canucks ... maybe because I was watching from a country bar called Roosters
HNIC game @ San Jose ... he got ventilated ... lots of sour faces ... random drunk girl decided to lift everyones spirits by riding the mechanical bull topless

 

[puckhead]

His words carry the weight that would break a less-interesting man's jaw
He's won trophies for his game-face alone
He bowls overhand
He is... the most interesting man in the world


lol - I hadn't seen that one before.




anywho, we are going to overtime.

 

[dash]

This is the first qualifying round game, correct?

 

[puckhead]

fucking phaneuf.

5 seconds into overtime, he (last man back) turns it over to Stepan.
fortunately, it surprised Stepan so much that he put himself offside.



halfway through the 4 on 4 OT now.
Spezza looks like he wants to win this one by himself.

 

[dash]

fucking phaneuf.

You'll never get tired of posting that, will you?

 

[puckhead]

This is the first qualifying round game, correct?

yes.
first Qualifying games were yesterday.
we play Norway tomorrow, and Sweden on Monday.


lol... Spezza doesn't trust Reimer to make a save on a 2 on 1 with 10 seconds left, dives headfirst into the net to take it off of the moorings.
and we're off to the shootout.

re "fucking phaneuf" - it just seems appropriate so very often. he's a Neanderthal.

 

[puckhead]

holy shit, Reimer stopped JJ
Eberle backhand roof-daddy 1-0

Wheeler hits reimer in the shoulder
Nash is an unholy BEAST, same move, other side 2-0




************ Canada wins *********
