Perhaps correlation to the weather models skipper all over the place. Historic come backs, major collapses, promising looking, climo in the end. :crazy:

Oh nice , they got shut out on home ice by a backup goalie. Their offense went pop goes the weasel , not even that many quality chances, while the Wild had several , which is par for the course when comes to bad team defending .

To put it mildly, I hope Croatia walk all over them.
Just to return to this for a sec... seems as though the Dutch national team is filled with a bunch of classless donkeys too.

What was not shown on the big screens was a bunch of them surrounding and mocking each Argentinian penalty taker before they walked towards the goal to take their PKs. Also add in the disrespect shown by their manager (Van Gaal) and the ensuing s***housing their sub did towards Messi and the rest of the team. The fact that Messi was fuming speaks volumes as he's typically extremely reserved.

Fun fact: Alex Ovechkin is the all time leading goal scorer now... Gretzky is a distant 4th when you adjust for the fact that it was a lot easier to score in the 1980s...

That game happened on Friday and was one of the quarterfinal matchups.

The semi finals begin today, in about five minutes. Argentina v Croatia.
