Olympic Hockey II

[Guynemer]

All three Swede goals scored by Red Wings?

Priceless.

[Pekka]

Lidström, Zetterberg, can't remember who scored the second so looks like it.

To be accurate, the first one was scored by Aki Berg, so Toronto D ****ed up again

[Guynemer]

Nik Kronwall.

And Holmstrom scored the last Swede goal in the semis, so I do believe that the last four goals for the gold-medal winning team were scored by players who will, late this spring, also win the Stanley Cup.

My commiserations, Serb.
Oh well. You must admit, it's nice to actually make it to the finals anyhow.

Here's a free advice: Avoid going into the bars tonight. It will be nothing but trouble tonight. People packing knives. Drunk, disappointed as hell. Maybe some kind of slaughter peak, at least violent crime is up tonight. Not worth it, stay home.

The suicide rate might peak in Finland tonight

[Pekka]

yeah

Well we can at least hope it's the morons who do it. Our guys interviewing the players made a new low today. THey had like 6 questions each, and all were the same; 'so how does it feel to lose in the finals?' adn then 'do you feel like the opportunity of your life slipped away?' from players who won't be in the next olympics like Numminen etc. That was super weak.. then they didn't give any mercy to them, Numminen couldn't really speak, he was visibly in tears and what does the professional do? Give some more heat!

It's like leave him alone already, what are you, a sadist? Lots of people watching it became super pissed off.. no class from the reporters what so ever. Even the Swedes showed more class.

'so this was the last chance for you to achieve something great, how does it feel when you didn't get it?' What kind of questions are those? How the heck do you think they feel, it's not like you have to ask the same questions a million different ways now is it? No class

Well at least the ref was OK.. We didn't like Devorski after US game but he was ok tonight.

[Pekka]

There's always the next time! But odds are it won't be against Sweden IN olympics that is, but world championships aren't the same thing really...

This is our games in finals:

MM-92 -tappio
MM-94 -tappio
MM-95 -VICTORYYY!!
MM-98 -tappio
MM-99 -tappio
MM-01 -tappio
WC-04 -tappio
OK-06 -tappio

MM= world championships
WC= word cup
OK= olympics

Yeah we play LOTS of finals all the time. We could win one every now and then too, that would be something. Odds are next time we play in the finals, if we don't win, we need to nuke the world. That's how I feel about it

Best. Hockey Game. Ever!!!

SWEDEN!!!

True.

People die fo cancer and other deceases every day, too. Maybe you'll get lucky there too, you know, not suffering too much before the end.

Darwinism at work

[Pekka]

Yes, may the Darwin be with you.

Well at least the welcoming was awesome. They plane got here late, so they players arrived to the stage (OUTSIDE!!) at... 2.45AM or so.. all drunk .. it was -10C, and few of them were absolutely smashed, like Florida captain Jokinen. He was so damn drunk I can't believe it He grabbed the mic and sent hellos to prison guards, and then at some point he went to the drums and... when this dude was singing, he went right next to him, talked to his ear all the way and then at some point grabbed him and it looked like he wanted to play wrestle him .. at that point I think someone grabbed him and took him aside...

I thought Koivu was reasonably sober, until he had to put his hand on this other guy to stay up good.. then at the end he threw his jacket and belt to the crowd, drunk dancing

J Ruutu of course came to the stage without a shirt, so he was there with his nipples freezing. Nemo was also wasted as hell ..

That was such a ... drunk fest it was awesome. Then at the end when they walked off the stage, the high official of hockey grabbed the mic, drunk as well, member of IIHF, the one who gave the medals after the finals, .. he was wasted and gave the closing speech to the CROWD:

"you're the best team in Finland!"... I mean.. you say that to crowd in Finland... and the audience was mostly teenagers getting wasted anyway

Wohoouu that was just surreal experience
