digitalmonkey 929 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I was thinking more like some Humble pie Meh...Canada and USA could play 27 periods and still only be separated by a goal. Link to post Share on other sites

serge 904 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Backstrom in one of the biggest international game of his life is not gonna play because of a headache? C'mon man. I understand how severe migraines can be. But really. Than Rask gets "sick" in a huge game. Sure Link to post Share on other sites

If they were playing the Russians I would suspect that a Polonium tipped umbrella was involved. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Before everyone jumps on the hating Kunitz train for that "high sticking" penalty, let me just say that his stick was at waist level and the Swedish player basically dove head first into it. Lol Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I actually know a lot about migraines. It's very severe when it attacks. I also know there are some strong medication that can help and maybe it's on a list of banned substances. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Lol, Kunitz got a bad penalty and my thought was "cherry will argue it was because of Cdn refs, and Zach will say it wasn't a real penalty" Ya, weird call. Has anyone read why Ekman-Larsson has not played in 4 periods, all while sitting on the bench I believe? Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Wow, really? He's a pretty decent player. If he was healthy, he'd probably play. Weird. Link to post Share on other sites

MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Wow, really? He's a pretty decent player. If he was healthy, he'd probably play. Weird. I didn't see the semi game, (listened on radio on commute), but I read that he didn't play at all,sat on bench. Now I didn't see him at all this period and didn't read about him being scratched. I would argue he is their 2nd bestD, or at worst, 3/4. Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,312 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 somebody made the comment on Twitter that mobile d-men have been super effective in this tourney especially on offense so makes it look every stranger that the Americans didn't take Yandle but instead guys like Orpik.

Maybe the top three teams made a deal where they weren't allowed to use one of their top mobile, offensive d-men. No Subban, no Yandle, no Ekman-Larsson. Also, I keep thinking how crazy it is no Hedman on this team. Link to post Share on other sites
