Who the fuck is Boone Jenner? Who gave him such a fucking shitty name?

He'll be long forgotten.

Canada won the gold in suspensions.

Bit of a goon squad, major goon coach though. Sprotty whined about the refs in the pre-tournament game, set the tone for Team Canada.

Nice to see Rocco Grimaldi worked his way out of the doghouse in supreme fashion.

Well from what I saw in the highlight package anyway the Canadian defense looked down right laughable on many goals.

Now, on to the Gold Medal game.

GO USA!!!

Canada really didn't do that. Only Reinhart fits that description. The problem was the guys they chose, who were good players, played bad.

Is that true, or did you purposely mention an Isles prospect being bad just to piss me off? If so, good on you!

I didn't see much of Canada's play. Was just paraphrasing a few rants I saw on hockeybuzz. Which speaks volumes for their validity. :roll: Hey, the lockout was on... I was desperate.

LOL....I thought to myself while watching the Bronze game.....Canada sure does have a lot of Dion Phaneufs on defense. Those guys would bail out on a moments notice to chase the puck.
