Did Canada win in the overtime?Comment

Yes, but it took like ten minutes to decide whether it was a goal or not. Bad times for the Swedish hockey freaks now

In that case, congrats to Canada - although for once I really rooted for Sweden...
This also means that the new world champions lost their only point in the tournament to... ...yes, Denmark. Which can't be half bad.

I suppose you'd add Joe Sakic, Mario Lemieux, Chris Pronger, Rob Blake, Adam Foote, Theo Fleury, Eric Lindros, Owen Nolan, Mike Peca, Brendan Shanahan, Jarome Iginla, Curtis Joseph, Ed Belfour, and Steve Yzerman to your "Too Good to attend" list, then?

So you can see what would happen when there are czech refrees.
Was it goal or not thats the question. In fact if they would use microchip and detection devices then there shouldn't be any reason to use camera. You'd know instantly if it was goal or not. IHF is so unsmart.Comment

Members of the Olympic Gold Medal-winning team?(waits to see who picks up on the common thread for these players first...)
Which Patrick Roy also did not attend.
I'm actually glad we had the team we did this year; it's good to see some up-and-comers get to the top via grit & determination.

^ Got it in one! Yes, Roy didn't attend either (though he did, of course, go in 1998, and was only out-duelled by Hasek by a matter of +/- 2 inches on those shootout goals). Whoop-dee-doo. I'm sure his 4 Stanley Cups are more than adequate consolation prizes.

No, it didn't, but I just mentioned the Olympics as support for my Anti-Roy agenda.But your post didn't say, "Those who're too good to attend Olympics!" now, did it?
Remember when he got in hot water for spousal abuse?
Zubov, too, I think.
And now Brodeur cheated on his wife... Very sad."I wrote a song about dental floss but did anyone's teeth get cleaner?" -Frank Zappa

^ Yeah, I remember the spousal abuse thing -- from the sounds of it, he ripped a door off its hinges while pissed off, the wife did call the cops, and because of strict domestic violence laws in CO, they had to take him into custody even though he hadn't actually hit her. Overblown by the Roy-bashers, IMO.
As for Brodeur, I hadn't heard that, and I don't care. It's noboby's business except for he & his wife.
I don't cheer for these guys cause they're stand-up human beings, I cheer for them cause they're great goaltenders. And with 6 Cups between them, the bashers don't have much else to tear them down with, then what they can pull from the tabloids .

With his sister-in-law, though! Saucy!As for Brodeur, I hadn't heard that, and I don't care. It's noboby's business except for he & his wife.
Yes, it's not fair, really. I guess being a jackass makes one a better goalie.I don't cheer for these guys cause they're stand-up human beings, I cheer for them cause they're great goaltenders . And with 6 Cups between them, the bashers don't have much else to tear them down with, then what they can pull from the tabloids .
Look at Tommy Salo: Great guy, always a kind word, always willing to play for country... and it goes in off his head.
I blame the gods.

Hey, I'll be the first to admit that Roy has a super-sized ego, and that it probably contributed to his refusal to play in Salt Lake. That being said, it was downright asinine that Curtis-I've-never-won-a-big-game-in-my-life-Joseph ended up with the starting job by default; I think Roy knew from the start that that's who the Toronto media were shoving on Gretzky & Quinn, so he just said, "Screw it, let them have him." Thankfully Joseph imploded in the first game and Brodeur took things the rest of the way
