Bmwolf21 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Ladies and Gentlemen.......prepare for the Karma Wheel to spin in direct payback for the Great Raleigh Rape & Pillage by Sabres fans in '06. All I know is there's probably many a Carolinian (is that the term?) who still has PTSD flashbacks from the Great Raleigh Rape & Pillage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darksabre Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 What is the score? Â Heh, about that... Â Kuznetsov went nuts for Russia. What a comeback. And great hockey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two or less Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Heh, about that... Â Kuznetsov went nuts for Russia. What a comeback. And great hockey. Â Yeah, you're not kidding. He just totally took the game over in a way i honestly didn't think it was possible in such a team sport, which that little time left. And that move he made on that assist when he couldn't beat the goalie, was absolutely ridiculous. Â Russia/Sweden re-match should be good, the first time it got really gritty. And of course Canada/USA should be an unbelievable game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I'd like to know who set the pricing for the tournament. Was is just another money grab by Quinn hoping to capture the Canadian fever for the tournament or were the prices set by the IIHF/HockeyUSA?

jdp1 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I believe the team was just paid a flat fee to host. It's my understanding that all the revenue goes to the federations, so I assume they set the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickshaw Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Ya thats what I was thinking when I said 'or maybe not'. That crowd being a good part Canadian might help the U.S. if they go into a us against the world kind of mentality. And they can take the crowd right out of it if they exploit the Canadian goaltending early. Should be a great game. I just hope the Canadian fans at the game aren't idiots about things. I want this to be about the hockey and the spirit of sport. No doubt there will be some over zealous fans there that don't know better and let their emotions get the better of them. There always is. Â Yep, from all countries. Â Hope it's a good game and the good guys win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpandean Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Hope it's a good game and the good guys win! This is that moment that only exists in sports - where the coach gives a speech on the jumbotrom to get the hometown fans fired up! We're the bad guys and they're the good guys, and I'll be damned if we let the good guys win! Â Uh, we're the good guys and they're the bad guys...

Tickets were half price a few days ago until it was a Canada/USA possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
