btw, whoever it was that said that crosby has been invisible is right. he is a complete non-factor right now (knock on wood)

 

Somehow, the internet acronym "STFU" just seems to capture the moment.

Miller blew that by giving up a rebound that kept Canada in possession of the puck which led to the score.

 

I'm having a really hard time blaming Miller for anything

 

Yeah I know Ryan Miller had a fantastic tournament and I'm not mad at him. But on that particular play, I noted that he shouldn't have deflected that shot back to Canada. Of course if we didnt have Miller we'd have gotten 5th place or something.

would have been nice to have beaten canada in one event at these games, one [expletive] event!!!!!!!! their country is the size of rhode island and we can't beat them in one [expletive] event.

 

Bobsled?

Damn, I hate it when Canada takes both Hockey gold. And I was hoping the Hawks had one more Canada trip for the Hawks and watching them blast the Canadian, but alas the Hawks only player three more Canadian teams and they are at home.

That was a weird celebration by Crosby. He scored and acted like he has every other time he has scored a goal. Then after a second or two he threw off his gloves and remembered he was supposed to go crazy. Edited by kujay

I was thinking the same thing.

But all in all, it's been a pretty solid last 12 months for Crosby.

pretty much worst possible scenario. crosby is now the hero despite being garbage the entire tournament.

 

and it's a shame for it to end on such a soft goal allowed by miller after he had been so good in the tournament

Posted

Yeah after seeing the replay, it was a slow shot that Miller decided to redirect behind him instead of falling on it, which I thought was weird because there were 2 Canadians there where he sent the puck. And the Canadians kept the possession and scored. Blah.

 

Oh well that was a fantastic tournament and while I'm disapointed to come so far, we pretty much played even with the Canadians or possibly slightly better than them on their home ice in a tournament that meant so much to the country. It's not the same as a gold, but Agghhhh, I tried this sucks.

Didn't we win 9 golds? Did Canada not participate in those 9 events?

It looks like he forgot that it was a game winner for the first second

Winning Olympic silver is still pretty awesome. That was an electric tournament.

 

And Ryan Miller is a stud.

We came into this being told by many that we would be lucky to even get bronze. And we took silver, plus played very good hockey with an amazing team. It would have been incredible to pull the upset, but USA hockey comes away looking pretty good.

 

And Blackhawk players were big throughout.

The Americans weren't favored to medal. The U.S. Hockey brains completely turned over the roster from the Tkachuk/Modano/Chelios crew to the Parise/Kane/Miller crew, and they played pretty damn well. This bodes well for 2014.
