  • McCabe is certainly lookin' hot! Playing the two weakest teams we'll face, McCabe has 0G, 0A, is a -2 with 14 PIM. I hate to say "I told you so", but...

    He is obviously the worst player on Team Canada, statistically and just by judging the gameplay...



    And this is why the Leafs are going nowhere -- McCabe is their leading scorer and top d-man.

    • Latvia is pretty competitive, they gave Slovakia HELL of a game.
      The breaking point was the annuled goal - such things tend to drop morale quite a lot.

        • Those Olympic refs are idiots. McCabe laid a clean hit on the German and he gets a penalty. Total bull****. The German was charging in with his head down and all McCabe did was close off the hole.

          Why the hell does McCabe get a 12 minute penalty for a clean hit.

          The reffing totally sucks.

          Gotta love Doan's last goal. He pegs a one-square inch upper corner. Beautiful shot.

            There's a ****load of people freaking out around here. Is Ottawa going to try and get Luongo?

              That was a legit call -- that hit is illegal in Olympic hockey, you can't ram a guy's head into the boards.

              McCabe is taking dumb penalties, making dumb defensive mistakes (ie, the assist he gave in the first game), and has dumb defensive positioning (ie, his positioning after leaving the box after his dumb penalty last game, leading to a goal). He's -2, and both of those goals against are directly related to McCabe f*cking it up.

              • I haven't seen any of our games. If he's as bad as you say it's even scarier considering Quinn is behind the bench. He's not going to bench his own guy i guess...

                  It's candy. Surely there are more important things the NAACP could be boycotting. If the candy were shaped like a burning cross or a black man made of regular chocolate being dragged behind a truck made of white chocolate I could understand the outrage and would share it. - Drosedars

                      • Well at least one player from the US team decide to be a good sport and give a post game interview. Minutes before the announcers said they were too devestated to give any interviews. That would've been truly poor sportsmanship.

                                He's also only taken 2 shots. What's up? I thought he'd be a machine gun, the way you were talking about him...
