Olympic Hockey II

[Pekka]

Yup it was weak call, ref wanted to be a celebrity and shine instead of letting the game speak for itself.

Interesting fact for my depressed Canadian hockey fans....

J. Ruutu and Nieminen are roommates. They are no longer playing in the same line, Nieminen plays in the 3rd while Ruutu plays in 4th line. Both important players.

But yeah, they're really roommates too. Imagine that

[SpencerH]

Well I was 1 for 4 in my predictions for the semi's. I'm almost a perfect 'negative barometer'.

[Pekka]

I also like the way Ruutu handles the controversial incident with Jagr. He doesn't pay attention to any talks, he just said that the hit was clean, period. And that he didn't come here to make friends, but win games. And that's it.

Good answer.

Jagr should grow a pair. And all the sissies crying about the hit, how it was clean but supposedly unnecessary.. get real. And the ones who say that Ruutu got lucky he got the shower call, he would have gotten it otherwise... well.. they tried but didn't want any piece of him. FACT: While you run your mouths to media how bad ass you are, Ruutu kept talking and challenging you sissies but you choose not to mess with him. So why all the talk? YOu are nothing but bunch of sissies. All talk. That's all you are, just talk. And we might still meet so bring it on tough guys, we'll see just how 'tough' your words are when you are face to face with the pride of our team. You better shut up (Kubina and other sissies) because we all know that you stepped down when you had the chances and if you did...

Don't call it a grudge
Jarkko's been here for years
Rockin his peers and puttin suckas in fear
Makin the tears rain down like a MON-soon
Listen Ruutu drive over the opponent BOOM
Explosion, overpowerin
Over the competition, he's towerin
Wreckin teams, when he drops those gloves that'll make you call the cops
Don't you dare stare, you betta move
Don't ever compare
Jarkko to the rest that'll all get sliced and diced
Competition's payin the price

JARKKO'S gonna knock you out (HUUUH!!!)
RUUTU said knock you out (HUUUH!!!)


That's right, sissies.

Spencer, that´s what happens when you pick losers

isn't nieminen the thug who plays for calgary and who was suspended twice in the last postseason alone for thuggish play?

Well I was 3 out of 4

only Canada prevented perfection and even then I said I thought they would lose but predicted their victory out of my fan bias.


Ok Russia will take the Finns in another great game while over on the other side the Czechs take the Swdes.

I don't feel as nearly as confident about these predictions

[Asher]

He played for Calgary last season. Sutter didn't like him, he plays for someone else now...Florida I think?

[Pekka]

Shut up LoA. You knwo why? Because..

VILLE WILL KNOCK YOU OOUUUT!
NEMO SAID KNOCK YOU OUUUUT!!!

He's a great player and gives more entertaining interviews than anyone else on the league. Including J Ruutu.

That's why we love him.

Both of them.

[Pekka]

He plays for Rangers now.

THIS IS NEMO'S HOUSE!

[Lawrence of Arabia]

sutter was right he used to coach SJ, should never have been fired

[Pekka]

BOOOM!

It's a contact sport. Can't take it? Watch the curling finals.

Same here, I was certain the Slovaks would win against the Czech. And that Sweden would lose in the semis. Now it could go either way. Same with Russia - Finland.

Knowing who will lose is as valuable as picking who will win.

Sweden v Czech --- > Sweden

Finland v Russia --> Finland

Finland v Sweden ----> Finland

Czech v Russia --> Russia

Now you know who to bet on.

I must have been away too long. I didnt know that knees to the groin were now allowed. Maybe its the influence of MMA.

[Pekka]

I didn't know knees to the groin were allowed in MMA.

And there's no knees to the groin in that hit either. But here's something I know. If you have problems seeing, get glasses and keep your head up, because if you don't, J Ruutu and Nemo will DOUBLEHIT YOU!

BOOM!!!!!!!!11
