Patriotism > Nationalism. Plenty of the latter being spouted off here

You make it sound like a bad thing.

Bad thing is gloabalism, where we pay everyone’s tabs and get zilch for it.

Y’all been to a game? It’ll make you a fan for life and make you appreciate just how truly talented those guys are.

Hockey is an intense game. High energy, beating eachother with fists and sticks, smiling the whole time.

Don’t feed the troll, he only participates if he can make it political. Just look at his post history…

Great game!

We swept both men and women .

Ya USA women’s team is good. I was surprised the gold medal game was as close as it was. I think you’ve beat us 8 straight games now on the women’s side.

I think hockey is the only sport where a player can get his teeth knocked out, break a nose, or get stitches and keep playing.
The interviews with Hughes missing his teeth were great.

Nolan Ryan would like a word.

Didn’t he cause some teeth to go flying?

Nationalism is always bad. We had plenty of gold winners to celebrate. First Winter Olympic thread was started so OP could spout off a nonsensical political opinion.

In 1977 I lost my lower front teeth playing in a hockey game in Sprague Manitoba

Spitting chiclets is exactly what it seems like

It’s not a political option to say you should be proud to represent your nation at the Olympics.

Nationalism is not a bad thing when it unites a country and prevents civil war. I’ve seen two of those first hand and extensively studied our own history. I’ll take nationalism over internecine factionalism every time.

But seriously, how do you miss a too many men call when the USA had 8 players on the ice and a guy off the bench playing the puck.

But seriously, how did they call Finland for high sticking at the end of the semifinal game against Canada. MacKinnon lifts the guys stick and get hit in the face by stick he lifted and then flops. Per IIHF rules accidental contact caused because an opponent lifted your stick is NOT a high sticking penalty. Not to mention the review for offsides when MacKinnon scores on following power play was marginal. But that's just how it goes in any sports, referees are going to miss a few and call a few the wrong way.
