I wonder if Kesler and Backes are talking?

Kesler: "Tell Kelly I said hello".

Same reason everyone hates the Yankees. We're the best. And Canadians don't mind telling you so. I can see it. There's soo much hype for Team Canada every year, and I'm sure other teams are beyond sick of hearing about how Canada's going to dominate. Personally I don't see what's so wrong with the comments, but maybe that's just me. I just wanna get this game started, finally the REAL Olympic hockey starts!

Gotta say I am a little upset with the OP for the obvious bait and switch going on. It is obvious by reading the article that there is a healthy competitive spirit between these two in the game of hockey. As stated there is an emotional need for the US to beat Canada, and more of a situation of embarrassment that the Canadians want to avoid.

I wonder how out of proportion someone could blow a quote like "We are bigger than Jesus". I suppose if you printed it out of of context we could have had some history to talk about.

"I hate them. . . . I wouldn't say I hate them"

This is what happens when you are born and raised in South Detroit. Extended close proximity to Journey will rot your brain.

Can't wait to see Webber put Kesler face first into the glass.

To be fair, Canadians have made it VERY clear they hate Jack Johnson. Just because it isn't communciated as directly as "I hate him" doesn't mean the message hasn't been clearly sent. So the feeling appears mutual.

Trash talking before a game? What a shocker.

The OP does a good Fox News impression.

This thread says more about the OP than Kesler. Obvious troll is obvious.

This is being blown out of proportion:

Here's the actual transcript:


Ryan Kesler: "I wear woman's clothes and I hate Canada"

Reporter: "Ryan, you do know a Canadian team pays your salary, right?"

Ryan Kesler: " I wouldn't say I hate them"

But Kesler said it..

I wonder if he tripped back peddling after he made that comment.
