Gearing up for the Canada vs. Germany Game - Calgarypuck Forums - The Unofficial Calgary Flames Fan Community

I have tickets to this game and I plan to get really red and really loud.
I saw a guy in Canada Hockey Place carrying a horn so i guess they are allowed. I'm very good with those plastic horns but i didn't bring mine cause i didn't want to crush it on the plane. I tried quickly looking for one inside Canada Hockey Place Anyone know where I can get one in Vancouver?
Also I might want to get my face painted or something, where do they get this done or do I have to do it myself?
GO CANADA GO!!!

Those plastic horns are the worst thing ever. Do everyone the courtesy of not bringing one of those to the game. But go nuts with the painting!

Bring a cowbell.

And try to get everyone to sing O Canada halfway through the 2nd period.

Wear Iginla's Flames home jersey and scream out Go Flames Go all game long!

What time is that game at?

I have a hard time being excited for this game.

Go Deutschland? What is the world coming to when a Russian cheers for Germans?

CedarMeter · 02-22-2010, 11:06 AM

Is this game a 5:30 start?

bubbsy · 02-22-2010, 11:14 AM

is it true that the Russa vs. Germany/Canada game is scheduled at 9pm PST (12am Est) the UBC Arena (which can only hold like 6K people)?!?!

I thought all Canada games were happening at Hockey Canada Place at 5:30 MST regardless. I can't find the link now though.

If that's true, I am going to be VERY sick on Wednesday.

No, that's only to throw off Babcock so he's napping when Canada plays at 4:30 at Canada Hockey Place, and Crosby, Nash and Iginla put up a combined 18 points while Richards fetches them water and Bergeron and Seabrook are on stick tape duty.

It would be great to have the eastern part of Canada whine and complain about a 9pm PST start time, and imagine the ticket prices for the game if there's only 6K avaiable?

Anyways, all Canada games are at 4:30PST at Canada Hockey Place, until the potential final.

Only the women's classifications games are left to be played at UBC Arena. The women's semifinals and bronze and gold medal games are now moved into Canada Hockey place. All mens hockey is played at Canada Hockey Place.

A shameless re-post but....

Horst: [threatingly] We Germans aren't all smiles und sunshine.
Burns: [recoils in mock horror]
Oooh, the Germans are mad at me. I'm so scared! Oooh, the Germans!
[hiding behind Smithers] Uh oh, the Germans are going to get me!
Horst: Stop it!
Man 2: Stop, sir.
Burns: Don't let the Germans come after me.
Oh no, the Germans are coming after me.
Man 2: Please stop the `pretending you are scared' game, please.
Horst: Stop it! Stop it!
Burns: [brief pause, then resumes]
No! They're so big and strong!
Man 2: Stop it.
Horst: Stop it, Mr. Burns.
Man 2: Please stop pretending you are scared of us, please, now.
Burns: Oh, protect me from the Germans! The Germans...
Horst: Burns, STOP IT!

Sorry buddy i don't even dream of booing anyone wearing a maple leaf on their chest. But it will hurt to cheer for him. When he wears the jersey that spells out the city he plays for then i will boo him loudly and proudly!!
