- AnthonyC, on 01/01/2009, -1/+28I love international hockey. Great times! US and Canada play great games every time they meet.
- untitled10101, on 01/01/2009, -0/+24These comments make me feel like I'm still on the youtube page...
- Kinger23, on 01/01/2009, -4/+25What a game! As far as cheap shots go, if your a hockey player you've probably received worse yourself. Some embellishment on both sides.
- Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -6/+24By the way, Canada would win this game 7-4. Summary here:

- inactive, on 01/01/2009, -2/+17Canadian hit with american stick on bench.
Canadian retaliation hits american player in to a camera.
sums it up =] - Cannon49, on 01/01/2009, -1/+15Tavares is a beast!!
- TheLakeTroll, on 01/01/2009, -7/+19Canadian players own!
- iMiXiMi, on 01/01/2009, -2/+14Amazing game. Refereeing was a little questionable, but it was exciting as, some thing that's very exciting.
- wmarcello, on 01/01/2009, -0/+12I don't think the Canadians were hotdogging in front of the US bench. In this case the celebration started along the boards, and the Canadian line was just moving towards their own bench to high-five their teammates (a very common celebration). This was a cheapshot pure and simple.
- Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -1/+10Because posting the event this video is relevant to is spam. No, its called relevancy, especially when its a non-major sport on digg like hockey, where the majority who see this vid won't know what else happened in the game.
- mrhedges, on 01/01/2009, -3/+12Very good game, but the time keeper needs a new job.
- NathanCH, on 01/01/2009, -0/+9That explains the double 2 man advantages during the first period for the Americans right? The American team had 8 minutes of power play during the first period...
- NozE8, on 01/01/2009, -4/+13Perfect example of 'the code' in action. Tit for tat and the very reason fighting should never be taken out of the game.
- woojoo, on 01/01/2009, -1/+10Youtube + Hocky = Fail.
You can never see the puck - FaTPonY, on 01/01/2009, -0/+9No, it was a player on the American bench that stuck his stick out.
- volume909, on 01/01/2009, -0/+7Go to bed buddy..
- m3mn0n, on 01/01/2009, -1/+7OH CANADA!!
- crossmr, on 01/01/2009, -1/+7Buried for being pro-american
- CCoe, on 01/01/2009, -3/+9Go ***** yourself, then actually WATCH the video.
- jonnystarks, on 01/01/2009, -2/+8I thought Pierre McGuire was going to explode after Tokarski's save on Wilson.
- HonkingAntelope, on 01/01/2009, -2/+7There was also that part where the Canadian player hit the American guy from behind, that wasn't too nice. As a Canadian, wasn't too happy about that. But Quinn benched him the rest of the game so whatever.
- compgeek, on 01/01/2009, -6/+11Just shows Canadians especially the junior guys don't take any ***** from any other team. The Canadian got clearly cheap shotted and they got revenge. Would have been better to see them nail the guy that threw the bench based high stick but they got revenge on the Americans anyways.
GO CANADA!
Proud Canadian here!!!! - CCoe, on 01/01/2009, -1/+6Calm the ***** down.
- Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -0/+4They were both fine in the end, so it didn't matter.
- dexter411, on 01/01/2009, -0/+4Whoops. Make that Slovakia:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-zmRP0e3kE - Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -0/+4Yeah, but we're talking about Kazakhstan here.
- crossmr, on 01/01/2009, -0/+4You can clearly see the stick dart out to hit him in the face at the last second.
- Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -1/+5Everyone ignores an amazing goal
- crossmr, on 01/01/2009, -1/+5There are two sticks..the foremost stick doesn't move, that isn't the one he hits. Watch it again, there is another stick further back that shoots out and hits him.
- dexter411, on 01/01/2009, -0/+3In regards to the refereeing, I definitely agree with you. Can't believe they only gave Della Rovere two minutes for that boarding penalty.
- Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -0/+3When Johnny T embarrasses Hedman all will be well
- CCoe, on 01/01/2009, -0/+3A beast!
- Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -0/+3Nah, right afterwards. The video was up before the game was over though.
- iMiXiMi, on 01/01/2009, -0/+3Lol did you submit this video before the game was over?
- JakeBC, on 01/01/2009, -0/+2lol, so did I. It was an awesome save though!
- stratmancj, on 01/02/2009, -0/+2goal is ok ... not amazing. cheap shots nice
- Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -0/+2I actually submitted that too, merely for the Pierregasm :P
- dexter411, on 01/01/2009, -0/+2'Tis true. Tavares scored a way better goal against Kazakhstan.
- JakeBC, on 01/01/2009, -3/+5Definitely a cheap shot, but all it really did was piss off Canada. The final score shows how that ended up.
- cameycam, on 01/01/2009, -0/+2Watch the video it was DiDomenico that got the stick not Tavares.
- KDyneria, on 01/01/2009, -0/+2When he made that save, I said "someone check pierre's pulse, cause I think he just went into cardiac arrest!"
- iMiXiMi, on 01/01/2009, -0/+2It's a little different than say minor hockey. They don't call as hard, because the players no what they shouldn't do. I would have been a closer game had Canada not score with 5 players on the ice.
- grantmoore3d, on 01/02/2009, -0/+2If they didn't look down on fighting in International games... there would have likely been a few good brawls that game.
- rheaume, on 01/01/2009, -2/+4Oh sorry, I forgot:
USA! USA! USA! - Jeffler, on 01/01/2009, -1/+3You missed one of the best games in history. It was so incredible that I'm going to try and get a full recording now because I kept stopping it to upload youtube videos.
- CoreyHalliwell, on 01/02/2009, -0/+2lol "you're getting intimidated!"... yeah the guy like 4 guys down was just adjusting his stick to an area that just so happened to be at the front of the canadian line... what a dick.
- dexter411, on 01/01/2009, -2/+4I guess the point is that you could have just put up a link to the article rather than to another submission of yours. No hard feelings.
- omababy, on 01/01/2009, -0/+2Welcome to digg, enjoy your stay.
