EbylHusker Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I feel as if we didn't have that aggressiveness we should of had. It really wasn't that, Canada was just all over them. Gotta give Canada credit, they just had the answers and shut us down. It's not a "US fail" or anything like that, it's Canada being better. Quote Link to comment

EbylHusker Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Wow, bad luck for us with Finland's first goal and then complete fail with their goal coming seconds later. Yikes. Quote Link to comment
walksalone Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I'm pretty sure we won't be seeing NHL players in the 2018 Olympics... Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 It isn't looking like it right now. And to be honest, I hope it kills the NHL off if that's the decision they make. It won't, but I'd be so glad if it did. I'd like to see the majority of the best players give the league the finger and go play elsewhere. Quote Link to comment

But it won't, because there isn't any other league, outside of the KHL, that can pay them like the NHL can. 1 Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I'm well aware of that, but I still hope it destroys the NHL somehow (assuming it happens). They'd absolutely deserve it. Quote Link to comment

But it won't. And why exactly do you want the NHL, destroyed? Did they blow up Alderaan or something? Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 It's a complete dick move (supported with bogus, hypocritical "reasons") to deny the majority of the best players in the world the opportunity to represent their countries in the Olympics once every four years. It forces them into a choice...don't play for what is easily the best league in the world with the best players, or don't represent their countries in the Olympics. And that's just complete sh#t, and if the NHL goes ahead with it, the NHL deserves to go down in flames. Quote Link to comment

I don't want my teams chance of getting a Stanely Cup, shot to hell because somebody gets hurt during a two week tournament that happens once every four years. They're getting paid because it is a "job". If they want to quit, go for it. Find another league where you're going to be paid very well, where you won't get blown up by Chechen separatists.
