Are You Paying Attention? USA Beats Canada World Juniors Will Play For Gold Medal

[PhillyFlyers]

Hope no one missed this. What an incredible upset. Canada, with the best junior players in the world, gets their asses handed to them 5-1 by a feisty USA squad that wouldn't take no for an answer.

I love it.

Can't wait for the NHL to be back.

That wasn't the gold medal match, it was the semis.

USA will play Sweden for the title.

Also, this wasn't "an incredible upset", it was hardly an upset at all. For the first time in recent memory, the US squad is actually on par with the Canadian juniors.

U.S.A. men are just tougher than Canadian men.

Which is why the title of the thread says "Will Play For Gold Medal".

You don't have a clue. Canada has 6 or 7 of the top 10 players playing for it that will be taken in the 2013 draft. A team of junior all-stars. This was a tremendous upset.

Canada has guys like RNH, Drouin, MacKinnon, Rattie, Subban, etc. etc.

USA deserves all recognition for it's efforts against such a team.

You do know only two players(three if you count Lipon who was passed over last year) on Team Canada are eligible for the 2013 draft right?

[elchristo]

im born and raised in canada and i could not care less at all

[VegasInsider]

Well I disagree with you Philly. I can only expect it being a Flyers fan and all.

Also, thank you BigD for the backup.

It's always nice to see the underdog win and to do it so easily was cool but don't get too excited, it was just one game and in hockey anything could happen in one game. Best of 7 would have been much more impressive.
Hope they win gold.

Easy capping game. Bookmakers had this one way off. Canada should have played better but usa much hungrier team. Sweden will win though tomorrow.

Yes and most of the rest have already been drafted in the 1st or 2nd round in the NHL which makes the upset all the more surprising. It's a team full of junior all-stars.

USA deserves all praise for their efforts.

LOL ok idiot who can't read properly. Tell us again how the USA/Canada game wasn't the gold medal game genius.

Hey genius, Sweden wins tomorrow. That's how it isn't.

Sweden-Gold
USA- Silver
Canada-Bronze

Do you promise Sweden wins?

[benandjerry]

Depends on what Sweden team that shows up. They came out dominating Russia first half of the game, but looked very sloppy second half. Should be a close one though.

You're a faggott. Go pound Pronger in the arse Flyer queer.

[unusialsusp5]

i'll bet he's on pins and needles waiting for the columbus blue jackets/flyers game on some feb sat afternoon at 150.00 a seat, hoping for a tie so his beloved flyers get a point and a chance for 2 if they win the shootout. they need to lop off about 12 teams so anyone can actually follow this league if it comes back. now they want 20 teams to make the playoffs rendering the regular season moot. not a bad sport to watch in person but.... must get rid of the helmets so fans can identify the players again.

Not only can't you read properly and are a moron, you can't spell and you're gay to boot.
