@@zackyep I know that. Nice to see NHL players back and if we win with NHL players someday I'll be even more proud of the team than this 2022 team. It's not the same to win without NHL players, but on paper, it still is a Olympic gold.
Being from Vancouver and getting to see 2010’s gold medal game in person, it was one of the most special moments in this countries history. Every true Canadian remembers where they were on that day
I suppose that Finnish victory is the most important since it was the first time winning Gold for them. But 1980 for the US and 2010 for Canada have to be the most thrilling.
@@ThePuckPlace Knowing Bettman, I'll believe NHL players are back at the Olympics when I see them on the ice and the puck has dropped on the first game. It wouldn't surprise me if he decided at the literal last second that "nope, I'm pulling my players back!"
As a Canadian, I am actually worried becaise of our goaltending. We went from Brodeur and Roy, to Luongo and Price, to ???. Really hoping we have someone breakout by 2026 cuz our goalie situation looks bleak compared to the competition.
@@justinowen9526 canadian goalies has won more than finnish, swedish or american goalies. Binnington 2019 Stanley Cup, Hill 2023 Stanley Cup and Skinner 2024 Finals Game 7. Tell me how it is weak? Canada has winningest goalkeeper culture and best mentality. Huge advantage
@@Markkanen340k And you'd take any one of those guys over the competition's goaltenders such as Helleybuck, Swayman, Otteinger, Vasilevsky, Saros, Ullmark, Bobrovsky?
for me, as a Russian, 2018 was a fairy tale. Victory at the Olympics, football World Cup. I will never forget matches with Germany in hockey and with Spain in football
As a Finn I remember that 2006 was a nightmare for me until 2022 when we finally won! 😂
Hate to burst your bubble, but that wasn't even best-on-best.

And if I recall, this gold gave Finland their first ever IIHF #1 men's world ranking position.
A position they'd hold for the next 2 years.
Tulee edelleen painajaisia.
@@zackyep you know in few years nobody is going to even remember that, but the thing which stands is the medal and it is golden.
2010. Ahhhh it was really loud in Vancouver I almost went deaf. People just screaming and shouting and yelling

Oh CANADAAA oh CANADAAA oh CANAADDAAA
I know it doesn’t have anything to do with the Olympics but the World Cup of hockey tournaments are great too so underrated
its because its not a regularly held tournament. Its only held "sometimes"
It’s boring without nhl players in the Olympics
Yea, great that they will be back in 2026!
It is not.. Olympic hockey is always about magic
NHL was planning to return in 2022, but their return got postponed til 2026 due to COVID

The 2010 Gold Medal game was exciting to watch and heartbreaking for American hockey fans due to the fact that we lost to Canada.
Bettman robbed Canada of 2 Gold Medals.
@@michaeljordan6239 For sure Canada and USA would have been far better teams, nice to see every NHL player back in 4 Nations and in 2026!
@@ThePuckPlaceyou support Bettmans greed by watching that

Stamkos better get on that 2026 Canadian Olympic team. It would be an absolute TRAVESTY if he never got to represent his county on the biggest stage.

Don’t even think about a gold medal in 2026 Russians would come and take the gold medal
Goalies are not canadian weakness.. Are you drunk
