Subject: World Junior Hockey Championship Hype Thread

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

I'm kind of enjoying the lockout by the way. It has given my local Finnish team players such as Mikko Koivu, Lauri Korpikoski, Kevin Shattenkirk, Kris Russell and Alec Martinez.

Sucks for you NHL fans though.


Finnish hockey league, will always be a joke compared to NHL, even with lockout. I wish those two thickheaded idiots could just put their egos aside and let the shorter NHL begin, I miss staying up all night watching world's greatest hockey.

And to put it out, I'm IFK & Stars fan. Come at me bros.

At this point, I'll settle with a half season. Anything is better than this, I agree.

Yeah, but think of the players. They get paid the least out of the four popular major leagues, and football only plays 16+ games a season. And this is the 2nd pay cut they'll have to take since Bettman became commissioner

They are running out of time though..I love how most fans are like "NHL can go -blam!- themselves, no more buying tickets, no more EA NHL games, no more watching hockey, no more merchandise" and yet if NHL manages to start a half season, everybody will freak the -blam!- out and can't stay away from the games. I know for sure I can't, that's why I haven't made "Threats" because hockey is so big part of my life.

Finland - Latvia just ended.

We won 5-1 but also lost one of our top forwards, Miro Aaltonen. He fell on his ankle and couldn't walk. It looks like his tournament is over.

Ouch, sorry to hear that.

Looks like he's undrafted? or is he drafted?

Undrafted. Hard to say why, maybe it's his size.

Could be a potential steal if someone signs him post-lockout.

I'm not a 100% on euro-pros though, given the recent track record of a few notable names.

That's what I was thinking, he is tiny compared to NHL Players but then again look at Martin St. Louis

He didn't look great on that goal, but might have been a sure-fire goal anyway.
