Biased officiating alone doesn't result in something like 40 shots to 11 shots on goal... after two periods.

DMF the scorekeeper was clearly a capitalist lackey who wrote down two US shots for every one he saw.

I think we should all try to remember that the Russian athletes have not been anything but sportsmanlike in every one of these issues. to them and go USA.

"...Canada's goonish defense and slow forwards will be exposed. ...".

Wow.  Have you been watching Canada's games?  They got better each game, outskating Finland and the Czechs badly.  They've had hard luck around the net so the scores were close, but they outplayed them both.

P.S.  Anybody with Sutter and Chelios on defence shouldn't be criticizing.  They have long had the reps of two of the dirtiest and make Canada's D look like choirboys.  :)

 Yeah I've noticed that too, the players have been contradicting the coaches and political leaders. S! to them, they are the good ones in this, but their leaders are freaky cry babies..

Sorry funked, I forgot that I had replied to this post! You are on for that bet. Heck I'll fly whatever you want, it dosent matter, USA is going down. Watch Lindros tomorrow. He hasnt played well most of the tournament, but he came out with a chip on his shoulder yesterday. When he plays like that, look out. I also predict we will expose Richter for the pretender that he is. Canada 4 USA 2.

Pongo, we will have NHL refs, so we wont have to worry about seeing another home court advantage reffing fiasco like we did in the womens final. Call it whining if you want Funked, but NOBODY gets 11 powerplays in one game, with 8 straight. Especially against a team that had only 13 powerplays against it in the whole tournament. If the situation had been reversed... Oh my! Oh yea, we won that game, so who cares!

That was some good hockey funked, reffing aside. I have often laughed at womens hockey but i gave it a look and found that those girls play with more emotion and heart than the men, IMO. At least when its Canada vs USA. They really want to beat each other at championships after playing each other 10 or so times a year. Not to say that the men dont, but I dont see the same animosity towards each other, which makes for such good hockey :) Hehe, yet another thread gone astray.

Why the heck would they even consider having refs from either country that is playing?
