Canada Finland predictions:

**wingwop** · 02-20-2002, 07:24 PM

Okay, I'm gonna say that canada will win the game 5-3. Goals by Shanny, Yzerman, Lemieux (3). How about that old tractor?

That sounds good to me, my friend. I sadly don't see Brodeur being able to shutout the Finns or for that matter anybody, thankfully though, I don't see Hurme doing that either.

The Canada vs USA Gold medal game will so rock!

**ken_valyi** · 02-20-2002, 09:22 PM

Canada SCORES!!!!

Thanks Joe!

A good start by the boys wearing the Maple Leaf!

**ken_valyi** · 02-20-2002, 10:36 PM

2 to 1 after two periods.

Too close for comfort. Loved Stevies goal though.

I'm waiting for Owen Nolan to run Hurme off of the ice!

**ken_valyi** · 02-20-2002, 11:16 PM

See you L8R Finland!

I hate to say it mr gretzky, but I saw quite a bit of canadian hooliganizm out there tonight. I think the refs could have buried their hack asses if they wanted. Oh that chris pronger, oh that theron fleury!!!

Did you even watch that game?

Did you not see the BOARDING penalty Teemu should have gotten on Pronger?

Dude don't let your hatred of the Maple Leaf obscure your vision!

Puh-leez! That was an evenly called game.... if you bothered to watch it!

**wingwop** · 02-20-2002, 11:52 PM

I watched the whole game, you're talking about something that happened late in the third period after the hooligans set the stage. I don't know what's worse, my hatred of Pronger, or the syrup in your eyes. Come on Ken, how about Adam Foote? Did he make a CLEAN hit tonight? And Pronger probably would have gotten that call if he hadn't fallen to his knees clutching his face everytime someone got near him the whole game. Hense, my reference to him and Theo Fleury. If you're looking for a call, how about Yzerman getting killed on the post? Of course, at least he had the puck.

Did you see Gretzky at the end? Suffice it to say, I'm sure he soiled himself!!

**ken_valyi** · 02-21-2002, 12:01 AM

Dude are you liked scared of the Canadian threat of taking the Gold or what?

That was a fairly called game. I won't even gripe about the Jovanovski penalty which came in the third, in case you missed it while grinding your teeth with rage. The Finn saw Eddie coming and turned his back when Eddie hit... hardly a boarding call.

Your bias is showing tonight, my friend. Did you get jilted by a Canadian harlot at one time or what?

**wingwop** · 02-21-2002, 12:16 AM

Man, a little adversity and you sound just like gretzky. What the hell would I have to be threatened about? When it's over they all still make millions and I don't. Trust me, I won't lose sleep whoever wins or loses.
And Jovo did leave the ice to make the hit. I agree with CBC that he played a great game though. I don't understand the comments that some felt he shouldn't have been there. He desirves to be there more so than Foote.
And I've never been jilted by a canadian harlet either, of course, i've never met one worth the 2.50 to cross the border for, hell that would double her fee!! hehe

**ken_valyi** · 02-21-2002, 12:22 AM

You are funny!

Screw it. A win is a win where I come from, and if Canada got a little dirty, so be it.

Now let Mr. Hull show the Russians the exit, and hope that Mr. Brodeur does not do his Tommy Salo impersonation, and we will get the Gold Medal game that we all want... and if you don't... well you suck!

**wingwop** · 02-21-2002, 12:26 AM

Ah ha, you're admitting it now. hehe. I'm just screwing with you. Hell, if you'd have played even more physical they'd have forfeited the game. Euro's can't take some good old north american style hooliganizm.
Anyway, you gotta admit, who would have thought salani could have done that to pronger's giant ass. He showed a little class during the hand shaking though. He spent a little extra time with pronger, I'm sure he was apologizing for it. Pronger's taking heat in the locker room I'm sure for possibly getting stitches at the hands of Salani. Too Funny.

**ken_valyi** · 02-21-2002, 12:32 AM

Considering Pronger's play in the first two games, I'm just glad he didn't hand Salami the puck.

**wingwop** · 02-21-2002, 12:34 AM

I don't know what his problem is. It's not like he's adjusting to a new defense partner. He needs to start getting the puck to the forwards more often, or, maybe he feels safer shooting than passing because of the first couple games.
