Hockey World Cup Tonight

**Rich** · 08-31-2004, 01:00 PM

I agree, can't wait.

My prediction: Canada 5, USA 0.

**exposed** · 08-31-2004, 01:01 PM

pffft rich its the other way around

**CDSmith** · 08-31-2004, 01:02 PM

Canada 5, USA 3.

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 01:04 PM

Hopefully Team Canada will pull a Team USA basketball move and will lose tonight 4-2.

GO USA!

**Doctor Dre** · 08-31-2004, 01:17 PM

Canada 3 usa 1 are my predictions

The french connection owns

**Vitasoy** · 08-31-2004, 01:18 PM

I have a feeling it'll go 3-2 Canada.

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 01:20 PM

Hoping the older experience pulls the US tonight.
Not sure we have enough scorers though.

**Canucks Fan** · 08-31-2004, 01:22 PM

4 - 2 Canada, Heatly will get a hat trick.

Look for at least a pair from the Mario, Iginla, and Sakic line.

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 01:23 PM

Was hoping Lindros would have made the team, at least that would of been one chick on Team Canada.

**TheWildcard** · 08-31-2004, 01:24 PM

Canada will win.

**GigaChris** · 08-31-2004, 01:55 PM

Go USA woot!

**n3in** · 08-31-2004, 02:00 PM

should be a pretty close game, can't wait to watch. i think USA will win it though.

**chauncy tc** · 08-31-2004, 02:10 PM

I love CANADA CUP hockey
CANADA CUP hockey is the best hockey you can watch
better then playoffs better olympics

USA really has little chance against this canadian team

it is canadas sport and should still be referred to as the CANADA CUP

**Vitasoy** · 08-31-2004, 03:06 PM

It's just about to start, fellas.

**Vitasoy** · 08-31-2004, 03:15 PM

Damn, what ugly jerseys the Canadians are sporting.

**jOdEs** · 08-31-2004, 03:19 PM

holy crap world cup already...didn't realize

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 03:44 PM

Damm Canada is very fast up front. Good thing Esche is playing a good game for us so far or it would be 4-0.

Looks like Puke Gold jerseys for Canada.

**Trent Edison** · 08-31-2004, 03:56 PM

1-0 after first... Canada is all over americans. Theyre hitting hard, theyre skating, and americans is all silence. Guerin tried to respond with a hard hit against Gagne near boards, but got caught with a charging call.
Esche keeps Americans close right now, hes their main guy in the powerplay and hes perfect 5 on 5. Personally I like this Canada team very much, they are playing like winners...

**Trent Edison** · 08-31-2004, 03:59 PM

Jovanovski left the ice with an injury... Hope he will return in the second and kick Guerins arse!

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 04:01 PM

Looked like a knee injury??

**SicChild** · 08-31-2004, 04:04 PM

usa is getting owned.

**Trent Edison** · 08-31-2004, 04:05 PM

Not sure, i think he hit the goalpost when Guerin bumped him near americans net... More looked like back problems...

**Doctor Dre** · 08-31-2004, 04:10 PM

Canada is owning :P

**Martin** · 08-31-2004, 04:16 PM

Gettin nasty. I love it *cracks brew*

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 04:17 PM

think the game will get a little bit more physical now that we are down 2-0

**EviLGuY** · 08-31-2004, 04:20 PM

Going to have to bring in a different lineup then.. Canada has a fair size advantage right now I think.

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 04:25 PM

2-1

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 04:39 PM

Game is damm exciting now. Much better than the Gold Medal game at the last Olympics.

**EviLGuY** · 08-31-2004, 04:49 PM

No kidding.. a lot of back and forth, fighting and a lot of shots.

The USA is picking up their game as well. 3rd period should be good.

Yep. Hoping to get a tie here and go to OT.

Do they play until there's a winner or leave it as a tie?? Anyone?

**CDSmith** · 08-31-2004, 04:52 PM

Pretty wild seeing super Mario duke it out there, usually he's a skater not a fighter. Cool game.

2-1 Canada last I saw.

Definitly ... even Lemieux dropped the fucking gloves ... unbeleivable

**Trent Edison** · 08-31-2004, 04:54 PM

Wow, nice 2nd period! I loved that brawl at the end, gloves were flying all over the place, Niedermayer went head to head with Halpern and stood pretty good, as i thought Halpern looks kinda tougher than Scott...
It turned out that Americans arent as dead as you might think about them. They did a great job of getting under the skin of Canada players and was able to regain momentum after that minor brawl in the beginning of the period, involving Guerin, Niedermayer and some other people. They got powerplay and shortly after it was over they scored... I thought the game pretty much was under control of US team till the end of the second.

I'm glad the USA is starting to play their A game.. I'd rather watch an exciting game that Canada might lose then some snorefest blowout.

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 05:02 PM

yea that first period was terrible.

3rd period about to start, should be a great period

Agreed. The tighter the game, the more exciting

So true with many of life's pleasures, not just hockey.

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 05:25 PM

6 mins left

Brodeur is playing really tough, makes me wish Roenick was on the ice and not the broadcasting booth

I think esche has performed better.

Especially during that 1st period when it could of been 4 or 5 - 0.

Brodeur will be tough to get by in the 3rd.

**V_RocKs** · 08-31-2004, 05:32 PM

Damn, see ya all later... gotta catch the last few minutes.

**Martin** · 08-31-2004, 05:37 PM

Nice!

Anybody see the snapper behind the Canadian bench? Hooooly..

Canada 2-1

Can't wait till these teams meet again...

**swoop** · 08-31-2004, 05:38 PM

Oh well, Canada wins.

Think the US and Canada will see each other one more time in this Tournament

**maxdaname** · 08-31-2004, 05:43 PM

Wooooopwoodoopwoopwoop!

Hopefully.. thats the final everyone wants to see. Canada VS USA for all the marbles.

Finland was looking pretty tough though when I caught their game yesterday.

Yea, a re-match would be sweet.

Sweden also looked really good today as well. They will be a tough team in this tournament.
