    He finally got tired of being the sole reason the Swiss were even somewhat relevant in this tournament.

        Minnesota hosted this event back in 1982 and no one came. To be fair, the tourney has grown quite a bit since then, and perhaps it's time to look at Minnesota again as a possible host. Besides the big arenas in the twin cities, I think it would also be cool to spread some of the lesser games around the state so the small towns could be a part of this, too.

        One of my best memories was at the 1991 World Journey in Saskatchewan, where some games were played in small towns like Humboldt, Prince Albert, and North Battleford. It was amazing how these small towns would totally sell out the local rinks, and the games were such a big deal.
        The WJC that was in Grand Forks, ND in 2005 was crazy and a lot of fun, it was well attended because of the close distance to Winnipeg. I had never heard the Ralph so loud as it was for the Canada and Russia game. I had someone try to tell me that Holy Cross and Minnesota was louder but that isn't true.

        I was told that Ralph sold more beer during the tourney than it did for a season of Fighting Sioux hockey.

                  And if anyone thinks it will be any different in Buffalo they are smoking crack.

                    Nooooooo. Poor Latvia.

                    I enjoy Conz though as he makes me think of the Wedding Singer. "They were cones!"

                      Papa Oshie must not have gone to any game that season.

                        If sports follow capital over the longer term, as I think, the NHL axis will be moving closer to Canada. Canada's a robust producer of not only hockey players but also agricultural and energy commodities, which are only going to trend upward in value. Our energy purchases go to fund extremism in the Middle East, but Canada will use the proceeds for more benign purposes, to get some of the NHL back.

                          The game is not selling so well in the sun belt is a gross under statement so it's only a matter of (a short) time before the Peg and Quebec get NHL teams back. I think you'll also see another team in the Toronto region as well.....heck maybe even two more teams there.

                          As for U.S. vs Canada....no doubt that the U.S. is the huge under-dog and they will have to have a ton of puck luck to win but hey anything is possible in a single game.

                            Yeah, the former Civic Center, now the XL center. You would walk right by it without knowing it was an arena.

                                The Canada-Russia game was definitely the loudest the ralph has ever been. For like the last 7 minutes of the game the Canadians just cycled the puck in the corner. They didn't even try to score and the crowd stood and cheered like maniacs.

                                The strike/lockout made that tourny so unbelievable. GF hockey fans were very lucky. There were 3 NHL MVP's there and now just about every player from the canadian team is a captain of an NHL team.
