Oh, how I love it when the Canucks get their panties in a wad and start comparing hockey and politics in the same argument.

Since all of you Canuckleheads seem to have such short memories, let me just remind you all that in '06 in Turin, your mighty Team Canada finished SEVENTH, right behind.....

......oh, wait for it.....

........SWITZERLAND! Yep, good 'ol Switzerland. The land of Heidi, fine wristwatches, little pocketknives, pacifists, and bruising forechecks. Sure, you beat us by one slot, but, then again, YOU LOST TO SWITZERLAND!!

Oh, I never get tired of that one. Good thing we were there for you too, or you would have ended up sandwiched between the hockey powerhouses of Kazakhstan and Switzerland......

Just goes to show you that you can't ignore mental illness. Besides the American gene pool is far beyond being over stressed. Go back to retardville you damn yankee.

Wow so true I was in vegas watching this game, and more people cheer when Canada score the tying goal than when the American scored the winning Goal. It was Also insanely impossible to get the score for the Canada vs swiss game......All espn would play is football highlights for hours.....:S

Next time I travel I'm bringing my laptop.

The American Played a really good game. They won the game as the should have, You can't go down 5-3 and expect to win a game.
Canada got lucky on NYE letting in 3 short handed goal and still winning, is kinda lucky and skills.

After saying all of this, people tend to forget that the bulk of eligible Canadian jr players are playing in the NHL, aka Tavares, Duchene, O'Reilly to name a few.

Would the Canadian have blown out the Americans if they had all their NHL players......yes they would have. Did they do it at the world jr this year, No.

For your info, Canada is better than the US at more than just hockey, We have a way better HEALTHCARE system, WE DONT START WARS to steal oil, Our GOVERNMENT isn't corrupt(tho I do respect Obama), We have WAY BETTER BEER, we are more respected on the world stage!, and our economy dosent SUCK!!, just to name a few, u can have ONE hockey game
