Always a great thing to see ... more people out to games in our league. Some of those non-regulars just may return for more - at least one could hope so. Good for them.

Re: Attendance

Here is a link to the PS page that shows 1500 there http://www.pointstreak.com/prostats/gam ... eid=782276
It certainly caught my eye when I was looking over the attendance in general.

Attendance

in Guelph was an unusual number in their game on Friday night. For a team that had an average of under 200 per game they magically had 1,500 in attendance. Me thinks someone added one too many zeros. I smell a skandal!!! :lol:

Re: Canadian Gold!

OMG, you guys have to read his blog about last night's game. He wrote it before the game and then made random comments during the game about things that were happening. He really despises Canada and all our hockey success. Maybe if he wasn't a Kings fan he wouldn't feel this way. http://worldhockey...

Re: Semi Finals

WOW! Was watching some of the game on a laptop during our jr b game and could NOT believe Canada tying it up with under 6 seconds to go!!!! I am amazed at how well both teams played (from what I could see) and how both played to win as opposed to playing not to lose. A good game by both teams and al...

Semi Finals

OK, matchups are Sweden and Slovakia Canada and Russia. Any predictions on the outcomes and spread. Not taking any bets but would be interesting to know what others might be thinking. I'm taking Canada winning by two and Sweden to win by one for a Canada/Sweden final and the Canadians taking the gold.

After reading the article and the posts made ... well I couldn't help myself, I just felt the need to put in my loonie's worth. Anyone else brave enough to try?

Quarter finals

Well, today features RR's beloved Russians playing the Czech Republic - who will face Canada in the semis- and the U.S. taking on Slovakia with the winner getting to play Sweden.
Any thoughts on who wins each of these rounds and what the score might be ... before the games take place??
