the max 0 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 Is Marty going to start? tsn has him as probable, but I'd think he'd definitely start, considering how lights out he's been in the tourney. 2-1 Canada in OT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bitter that America lost out? Not really ... the Americans had no business beating a superior Russian team, and I went into the Finland game thinking that the better team would win, and wasn't entirely sure that the US would be the better team that night. I just really think it'll come down to goaltending, and - right now - Kipper > Luongo. If Brodeur is 100% then it's the Canadians. But if it's Luongo or a less-than-100% Brodeur, then I think it's going to the Finns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the max 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Is it me or did the Fins just look LOST when they had to do nothing but attack? Good win for Canada, and it's funny that LeCavalier was a replacement and he ends up winning the MVP for the tourney (although Marty could have made a strong case for it. A GAA of 1 isn't anything to sneeze at) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 It was either Vinny or Brodeur winning the MVP. Finland seemed to run out of gas in the third period, but man, they came close a few times. and Doan's goal, wow, what a beauty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Congratulations to all of the Canadians, and Canadian fans, on this board. I have to admit that I was rooting for the Finns, but that's mainly because I predicted them to win before the game. Having said that, though, I'm stoked that Joe Thornton got to be on the winning team. Two assists last night, six points in the six games ... not bad for the 'checking line' center. Seeing the B's captain celebrate was a pretty good consolation for seeing the US lose, and then the Finns lose after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
