4 Nations Hockey USA vs Canada

[Hawk Tuah]

3 fights in the first 9 seconds...

What. A. Rivalry.

First best on best in like a decade.

Agree to disagree...this is hockey. They are setting the tone.

Electric game.

It’s all about setting the tone

yup, with 2 of their top guys watching from the stands

The tradition of fighting in hockey is sacred. And so much more appreciable than other "contact" sports where everyone is immediately penalized for contacting each other inappropriately. Looking at you, NFL pansies.

They spend five minutes in a box and then keep playing.

This isn't soccer.

Tkachuks? Right back out there

Accountability. Setting the tone. It's part of the sport and not even a separate thing.

Here is a better sport for you to watch. At least this is what our coach used to tell us to go play when someone played like a pansy.

IF the Canadian team gets into their game, the USA loses. They have to keep those guys out of their game.

More fights coming.

It makes it more fun to watch when the first match is already a grudge match!

Team Canada has never lost with Sid on the bench. This might be the one.

Been Good so far; seem like everyone down in the Keys has the game on right now

I'm sure hearing Canadian fans booing our national anthem put a little boost in their stride.

 

[Bow Bullet]

Hell of a game! Love the Four Nations format. So much better than the lame-ass crap the all-star game has become.

I don't watch hockey, but saw the headline and clips of 3 fights in 9 seconds on ESPN and was like, "yeah, I'll turn that on."

I do feel like hockey is one of few sports that the view is better in person than on TV.

Team USA played their game right away, getting physically aggressive and slowing the game down. If the team up north was able to use their speed the game would likely be very different from the outcome we saw. And Connor Hellibuyk is a stud in net.
