IIHF Therad

[Serb]

We're against Belarus next. I think tomorrow won't be a good day to talk to our Latvian subcontractors.

Why?
I would love to hear some comments about the tonight game from Solver. 6:1 is a huge progress comparing to 9:1 after all

p.s. Oh, I don't relly care a sh!t about your Latvian contractors. Like you can ever hear something good from them about Russia.

[Serb]

No, juniors are not always less than seniors.

The seniors competition take place such that the best players from each side can't match up.

The juniors competition takes place such that the best players from each side CAN match up.

That's why no one really gives a **** about the World Cup/IIHF tourneys. The only thing more pointless is that annual tournament in Davos, with the ridiculously excessive advertising.

1) Not every best junior from each side can match up at junior WC ('cause the best Russian juniors often play in the senior league (like Malkin, Ovechkin and Cherepanov did).
2) All you can be proud about is the Junior IIHF WC. Not Seniour IIHF WC or the Olympics.
Don't you understand HOW LAUGHTABLE your position IS? It's a looser's position, a looser's arguments.
3) Eat that, boy. And face it for a God sake - you can't play hockey.
WE PWN YOU AT EVERY REAL MAJOR INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION. BE IT A WORLD CUP OR OLYMPICS.


Simple as that.

World Jrs is a major international competition, and Canada OWNS you there.

The World Cups are pointless.

Canada has historically underperformed at the Olympics as they favour old, established players over younger, better. I have hopes this is finally changing.

[Serb]

But since you put Wold Juniors above World seniors AND OLYMPICS (and this is your only argument), then I suggest Ben to call a doctor for ya.

I never put it above the Olympics. I've even clarified this for you once already, this is your last warning before I blow my top.

I did put it above the World Seniors, because the World Seniors is useless and full of ridiculous team choices due to the time it takes place competing with the real hockey in the NHL.

[Asher]

Also, Serb, YOU HAVE BEEN OFFICIALLY DEMOTED FROM YOUR POSITION AS "ASHER'S FAVOURITE RUSSIAN".

onadera, congratulations on your new promotion!

Yeah. You equalized just a few second before the final siren.

The World Cups are pointless.

No matter of your crap. The senior WORLD CUP is a way MORE MAJOR international competition than a junior one. Like it or not, but it's true. Its popularity can be messured by the number of people who watch this competition.

Canada has historically underperformed at the Olympics as they favour old, established players over younger, better. I have hopes this is finally changing.

I don't f*cking care about your pitty excuses.


ANSWER THE QUESTION:
WHAT WAS THE PERFORMACE OF TEAM CANADA vs. TEAM RUSSIA at the LAST OLYMPICS in 2006?
Wasn't it 2:0 FOR RUSSIA by chance?
Once again, I'm begging you to face the undeniable fact and admmit superiority of team Russia over team Canada at international level.

Also, Serb, YOU HAVE BEEN OFFICIALLY DEMOTED FROM YOUR POSITION AS "ASHER'S FAVOURITE RUSSIAN".

Thanks God

Serb...they won.

Okay, I'm done toying with you.

Is now a good time to point out to you that Canada actually won the last World Cup that was held?

In addition to winning the World Jrs?

Yes, Russia won at the last Olympics but if you look at Poly's threads back then, Canada's team selection was atrocious and most people here foresaw that disaster. Bryan frickin McCabe made the team. You shouldn't brag too much about beating that team.

[Serb]

Serb...they won.

They did. And that was a bitter defeat in OT. I've never denied that. But they were juniours goddamnit! Not our real hockey players.

Okay, I'm done toying with you.

Thanks God!

Wow! Really? I have some news for you buddy - you have lost the last WC held in Canada in year of 100th anniversary of hockey game. And you've lost it to team Russia 5:4 in over time. That was just a year ago in 2008.

In addition to winning the World Jrs?

You did win the Junior WC held in Canada (at the last dying seconds I must add, mostly due to incredibble support for the home team by fans).

Yes, Russia won at the last Olympics but if you look at Poly's threads back then, Canada's team selection was atrocious and most people here foresaw that disaster. Bryan frickin McCabe made the team. You shouldn't brag too much about beating that team.

Dude, I DON'T CARE about your pitty exuces.

YOU DID LOSE TO US IN THE LAST OLYMPICS.
AND IF YOU WANT ME TO BRING AGAIN AN OVERALL STATISTICS ABOUT RUSSIA-CANADA ENCOUNTERS AT OLYMPICS - JUST WHISTLE.
But something tells me you don't want to see that humilating 8:1 score again.
So, I'm begging you one more and this time last time - shut the hell up. That's for your own good.

p.s. And don't even start your sh!t about Soviet hockey /= Russian hockey. We have been there several times. But some news to you - according to IIHF and IOC - IT IS THE SAME.

[Asher]

They did. And that was a bitter defeat in OT. I've never denied that. But they were juniours goddamnit! Not our real hockey players.



Thanks God!

Is that what they tell you in Russia?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Cup_of_Hockey

There was no World Cup of Hockey since 2004. When Canada won, and Russia was not even a medalist.

I felt there is something wrong. Ok, I've took WC for a World Cup instead of World Championship (as it is in Russian). But it's nothing more than a language barrier.

[Asher]

The IIHF World Championship is utterly worthless, as discussed.

The World Cup is slightly more important (it contained the highest calibre players on each side), like the Olympics.

I do remind you that your claim about Russia dominating all major international play is seriously hampered when you consider Canada has won 2 of the last 3 major "highest-calibre-player" tournaments?

Such "highest-calibre-player" tournaments exist only in Asherverse for a pathetic excuse for not wining a real international tournaments like seniour WC and Olympics.
The simple facts are whenever we meet you at Olympic - we beat ya (Not to mention WC - ok, you don't consider a SENIOR WC to be a serious tournament for your own pathitic excuses, but at the same time a JUNIOR WC is pretty fine tournament in your book:crazy.

The overall statistic of Russia-Canada encounters at Olympics is 8:1 (or 9:1, I don't recall exactly now and too lazy for google, but more likely it's 9:1 after 2006) in OUR favour.
Eat this.
Now try to diminish that simple fact by bullsh!ting us about how junior WC are more respected tournaments than Olympics and the same crap you are a king of.
Please, keep self-destructing (c).

Oh, be serious.

The only time these tournaments say anything is when the best from each country go up and play against eachother.

When the tournaments take place, for example, DURING THE NHL PLAYOFFS...the best hockey players in the world are NOT playing. Which means the games are far from decisive. They're meant only for casual amusement only, nothing to take seriously.
