USA goes down!

Was a great game regardless of politics, without Binnington , Canada was fooked in OT .
Glad Canada found a bit of footing during this current circus
Pathetic to watch most who hate hockey to suddenly use the sport they loath to be some sort of flag waving situation.
Regardless, leave politics out of sports , it’s about extremely talented athletes, not tin pot politics

The hockey players all lined up and respectfully shook hands at the end of the game
Crosby was the first in line.
Saw nothing unusual about the way they treated each other.
Full effort and full credit deserved by all.
Don't like the Tkachuk bros and when they planned to scrap on the puck drop of an elite game who did they think they were going to be lined up with?
McDavid and Marner?
Talk about picking your spots?

They lost a lot of respect among fans that buy the tickets.

But don't tar the whole group and the whole country with the actions of one or two loud mouths.

Warren Buffet sends a letter to Donald giving him a little advice:

“ Thank you, Uncle Sam. Someday your nieces and nephews at Berkshire hope to send you even larger payments than we did in 2024. Spend it wisely. Take care of the many who for no fault of their own, get the short straws in life. They deserve better. And never forget that we need you to maintain a stable currency and that result requires both wisdom and vigilance on your part.”
Trudeau forgot this part.

Did you watch the game Chuck?
No asses were kicked. It was a very even game with shots on goal almost equal throughout the game with the Americans getting a slight advantage later in the game. Canada goalie made some remarkable saves in the over time that saved the game for Canada.
It could have went either way and I would call the teams equal.
Both teams lined up at the end and if you looked at all the faces and the names of the players and they never had a jersey on would you know what team they belong on?
Makes you wonder why there is an imaginary line that does nothing more than to protect an elite group of oligarchs?

Excellent post

Gretsky is also getting his ass kicked on social media and by hockey journalists for not showing support for Team Canada.

No colours, no Jersey and he gives a thumbs up to Team USA but not Team Canada?

WTF Wayne? They should have chosen somebody else as honourary team captain!

The traitor has switched sides and is now probably supporting Trump's attacks on Canada?

What an embarrassment the Great Once has become! More proof that all those hits to the head in hockey can cause permanent brain damage!

O'Leary, Peterson and Gretzky a trio of traitors and not so great Trump ass kissers!

Where and how long did you play CC?

Gretzky has lived in the USA for many years and spent all his early years in Canada. Maybe he noticed difference's that gave him a more positive impression when living in the US. I am sure he is really happy to have been paid in American dollars.
Maybe he is like me and finds socialism depressing!

Gretzky helped lead one of the greatest hockey dynasties ever.
Gave many Canadians much pride and enjoyment.
Seems most of the bitching is about his Trump encounters.
Might be a stretch to call it friendship.
Mostly before the 51st state bluster?
He gives some hockey players all thumbs up while walking by and now he's evil?

Get a life.

It's a hockey player.

Wayne did more for hockey in North America than anyone history and was / is a great ambassador for the game
Who cares that he has been around Trump, Jesus some of you are off the rails on this
