did you watch the russia u.s. semi final game, i'm guessing not because the lack of class and complete ignorence russia showed in the last find minutes of the game totally goes against everything you just said.
now as for the hitting part and russia gettting frustrated, of course they did, do you watch european hockey, they can't hit, PUSSIES...hitting is a big part of the game and always has been, now i feel sorry for you, honestly i do, i'm even gonna take it that you never played hockey because i remember back when i played if you got hit hard cleanly and got knocked on your ass you respected the guy who caught you with your head down. then you were taught the lesson to keep your head up when skating with the puck.
canada really had no cheap shots, they hit whoever had the puck, knocked their ass off the puck and got every team off their game...i honestly can't believe you're canadian talking like this, it has totally puzzled me...anyway i'm getting off topic...GO CANADA
can't wait for 2006 when we get to defend the junior title and the womens and mens olympic gold medals.
OH CANADA OUR HOME AND NATIVE LAND, peace.

Nice post AlerG, I couldn't have said it better myself homie. And Shallow, I got NO idea what the fuck your talkin about when your goin on about canada's physical style getting the Russian's upset?. Dude OF COURSE they were frustrated,because they couldn't do anything about it and they knew they'd lose the game. Also, Canada played, and almost alyways plays clean, they go for the hit if it's there, but you won't see them slashing away or throwin spears like those Russian bitches.
B-Blaze:
Russia was the dirtiest team in the whole tourny so i dunno what ur talkin about...even the americans wile they were leaving the arena were tellin the canadians whatever u do just beat the russians.
Shallow:
I wasn't talking about current Russian Hockey. I was talking about original Russian Hockey. I don't like checking in Hockey, dirty or clean, because it ultimately cheapens the game. GMs start looking for big strong uys who can't play that well instead of great players who can't check that well. If the NHL had all the skilled players they don't get because they want the big checkers the league would be light years better.
eS El Duque:
I got my tickets for the junior's here in Vancouver..21 games..bring on the Finnish women ;D
Shallow, I've never watched the summit series, only that famous 2 minutes when Henderson scored that goal. I never saw the hit? You gotta remember in the 70's the Red Army was feared, the wholle USSR was something to be scared of. And a country like Canada, not backing down, and taking it to them..was somthing to be proud of 8)
Gretzky got hit ??? mario got hit ???..the game is the same as it was in the 80's...its just the goalie pads are bigger now and the net moved up..i think they should reduce both.
I don't care how many people watch the NHL, or the ratings and stuff. Im a fan of HOCKEY, and I love to see it. If the americans don't, want to watch the Stanley Cup Finals, thats ok. I like All-star games cause their's enver hitting, and they never take things seriousily. But with no hitting, you're going to eliminate passing..i gurantee it. All them puck handlers who don't like to pass, wont..so thats gonna get rid of role players.
I see it what you're saying, but that's gonna kill the game and ruin it.
Bramsterdam (see ya):
8) Good for Canada, watched a bit of the game but fell asleep
