NHL thread for '25-'26?

Being 65 and remembering 1980 well I was beginning to wonder if I would ever see the USA bring home another gold. With how stacked Canada was with talent I was doubting it again this year. Truly an amazing win for the USA

Conner McDavid the M.V.P. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: give me a break must of felt sorry for him:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
Some people, win or lose couldn't muster any dignity or respect. Typical jailhouse goof personality Dave....King of Fabo bannings...douche... :thumbsup: and you're showing every but of it lol.
 

Didn't get to see the game. will catch a replay. Helly apparently stood on his head and kept the US in the game.

Canada owned the US in money games the last 20 years or so. Nice to see the US finally get a W.
 
He ain't wrong lol


Only one statistic matters.

I’m really disappointed that our friends to the North acted like they did .
If the Americans had lost and acted sullen and angry,,,we would have been called bad sports and ridiculed .
Those terrible,,spoiled Americans,,,,they think they deserve everything !
Why can’t the Americans just be good losers and admit that the rest of the world is better than they are !

I seem to remember a little while ago when the Canadian team won a big rivalry game .
It was stated that it was retribution for our terrible government imposing tariffs on our neighbors unjustly .

It’s sad really,,,,,the Canadians were the better team in this game ???
Got 1 goal in ,,out of 42 tries .
Had a 5 over 3 advantage,,,,still no Joy .
Then at 3 on 3 ,in overtime ,,still lost,,,and the coach had the nerve to suggest that they just flat out outplayed the Americans .

I’m sorry that the results have shown just how small a group can act .
Yes,,,it feels terrible to lose,,,I know how that feels .
But they are supposed to be professionals and show the young people how a role model should act .

I’m sorry,,,,but I always liked Canadians,,,they were always very polite and courteous .
A very good example for your country when I had the pleasure to meet them .

These guys cannot hold a candle up to Gretzky !
A real gentleman former hockey player !
I think he even lives in America now,,,I’m glad he’s here .
He’s a great ambassador for your country .

WTF are you talking about?
Yes the Canadians outplayed the USA, BUT your goalie was better plain and simple...im not whining/crying. Canadians lost, no big deal. USA 1st gold in 46 years, so yeah the USA was due.
I saw disappointment on the Canadian players face. Pretty standard fuckin procedure for losing in the finals...NO MATTER THE SPORT.
I would rather lose with that team than win with these goofs.
Worry about yourself instead of "to the North"

I agree.

Team Canada played a much better offensive game.

That's what made it a nail biter for me.

That super cool/lucky Hellebuyck behind the back stick save was probably the difference.

Who remembers "The thrill of victory...and the agony of defeat"?

Hughes is probably feeling the agony of victory after that tooth extracting stick hit.

I got REAL sensitive nerves in my teeth.

I could never do that.

I need 2-3x the novacaine used on mortals, for any invasive dental work, and it needs to set up for 30-45 min.
Almost threw a dentist to the ground once, that didn't listen to me about that.

Lol,

Sorry I struck a nerve !
It just proved my point ,,there is no good sportsmanship up there .
You are right,,,first Gold in a long while,,,,but it’s still Gold !

And I don’t agree that slapping a puck over 40 times and missing the mark is better playing .
5 men against 3 should have scored easy if they were the superior team !

Hockey and maple syrup,,,oh yeah,,,Crown Royal .

Lol, gimme a break with the sportsmanship comment. You dont have any clue about sports OR you wouldnt be surprised that a team that just lost is not doing cartwheels for you. Shows how much ignorance you have lol.
"Slapping a puck" lmao, stick to the gymnastics there Peg. :rofl:
Nice gas cap lol
