"I understand why North Americans hate soccer after watching this." Truer words were never spoken.
TheChosenOne no one else took that as sarcasm. Literally no one.
That'd have to be super subtle sarcasm or your just wrong, bud. 1:40
Yeah, but Americans don’t enjoy Hockey or Football (soccer). Which suck, because those are the two best sports out there imo
@TheChosenOne no one thinks that was sarcasm
@TheChosenOne That wasn't sarcasm lol
You picked Olympic hockey? Why not a game 7 in the cup playoffs
Overtime of game 7 in the finals
You're so incredibly right... Olympic Hockey feels so unimportant to me.
I realize now that could have been taken as sarcastic but I really do mean that.
there would at least be a chance of a fight
That wasn't even Olympic hockey, that was a game in the IIHF World Championships which happens during the NHL season so a lot of top players don't go.
"They won 6-1 and that's the period you showed us?"
brilliant
First of all, they showed international hockey, so there arent going to be any fights and minimal rough play. Second of all, they showed absolute crap for clips. They literally barely showed any significant plays. Just back and forth. They could have showed awesome saves, breakaways, one timers, body checks, hip checks.
Yep
David but that's not what happens the majority of the time
ItsVortex So?
David well if they wanna know about hockey this is actual hockey cuz this is what happens the majority of the time
ItsVortex But to not really show any highlights is silly. When you introduce someone to a sport it makes sense to show them highlights to get them interested... you figure out the strategy of the game afterwards
"Still no goals, after 20 minutes of play."
Wow...that sounds like every damn soccer game I've ever watched
Soccer go's for longer than that. XD
+fluffynoses Except in football you can see the ball and we actually have decent fans who make some atmosphere. This was deader than a graveyard. Wow so fun.
chap0syoutuification it's because it was international non-olympics hockey. the crowds at NHL games are more nuts. just watch the canadians
And lol...i wouldn't put football (soccer) and "decent" fans in the same sentence, no offense
+fluffynoses LOL. For team spirit put up a Habs X Bruins game and watch the madness - both in terms of fighting/checking and fan spirit/aggression
+chap0syoutuification Once you know the game a bit it's pretty obvious where the puck is even when it isn't visible all the time, by seeing what the players do and by following the game. Well, at least most of the time it's pretty obvious.
Should have showed NHL, international hockey isn't as violent, CBC would gladly hand over the rights to the game videos, trust me
Nhl isn't even violent it's just checking into a board and poor fist fights, the nfl has more gruesome injuries
+Bostonzo B bro football players admit that hockey is more physical. Guys get pucks to the face, go back to the bench to pull their teeth out and dont miss a shift. Crosby played with a broken foot and went to the playoffs
+Bostonzo B Studies have shown that a hit in hockey has 25 percent more impact than one in football. Look up Richard Zednick neck cut. Then tell me what it more gruesome.
+Bostonzo B Yea... that isn't correct at all. Look up Clint Malarchuk, or even the worst injuries in the NHL. You could even look up NHL vs NFL hits. You will see that the NHL hits are much faster and much more brutal. It's simple physics.
+Bostonzo B Never seen someone get their throat cut open in a football game.
Should have had them watch an NHL playoff game probably more interesting
That's what I said! Lol make them watch a NHL Stanley Cup game!!! Then they'll see how it's really played!!! Ha ha
i would have loved to see the penguins kick the shit out of some leafs some more.
Red Wings vs Avalanche 1997..... that’s a classic!
Some clips of the Battle of Alberta in the 80's would have won them over. And I second the Wings/Avs rivalry too, the Osgood/Roy fight, now that would have been the hot seller.
Or World Junior Championship, nhl skill without nhl defence. Some of the best games I’ve seen in my life.
"Here is some Coffee Crisp, and here is some of Eastern Ukraine." LOL.
K.
Can I volunteer to be a sort of American/Canadian liaison to you Facts.? Because unless you guys intentionally pick the worst versions of stuff for Irish people to try for the first time, you could really use an outside helper.
+Alex Banks Hey there, you are welcome to mail in suggestions to our Facebook page :)
Facts.
Hiya! In case I came across as too critical, let me say it's a thrill to be replied to by you. I meant more of a steady person to bounce ideas off of, but the suggestions thing isn't bad either, I might do that as well. Keep being great, we love ya over here.
Lol so true why not a cup final game or or Olympic final cut to the good stuff ur making look like hockey sucks
+Alex Banks yes I made a mistake grammar nazis
+Connor Beaudet also it looks like they showed them a single period of a INTERNATIONAL game, you need to watch the entire game.
Boo. Why'd you show an international match? The whole time these guys are talking about hits and fights... and you're showing the tamest version of the sport.
+JHHBeck
You clearly know about international hockey.
+JHHBeck International hockey or hockey in general on european ice allows for much more passing and alot more smooth plays. Alot more space and you dont generally have many guys deking through the middle. Rather you guys flying up the wing with tons of space and making great passes.
+troller smith, the important point was that the viewers were looking for hits and fights, which aren't prevalent in international hockey. Great passes are aplenty in the NHL, but you get the deking too. There's a reason it's the world's premiere hockey league.
+John Beck IMO the NHL is terrible because of all these stupid rules they have to differ from the rest of the world. KHL is the best, followed by the Liiga, although the best team in the world is decided by the Champions Hockey League.
+Michael Byrne, none of whom could hold a candle to an NHL franchise in a multi game series.
IIHF is a terrible choice to show hockey to someone who has never seen it before.
Sam Ellens I was in the stands @ that match. WCH2015 final in Pragze. It was an incredible match Crosby scoring, Giroux scoring.. They showed them the worst period. Canada won 6:1
I like international hockey quite a bit - but if someone has never seen hockey before I'd absolutely show them an NHL game or even an OHL game first. OHL is often especially exciting as the young kids seem to get better at offence before they get better at defence and there can be wild end to end plays.
im pretty sure most people were introduced to hockey by either NHL (game) or the world cup. at least in Europe. how could anyone be introduced to NHL when watching a game costs 30 bucks a month.
Sam Ellens nhl is way better
1:42 "I understand why North Americans hate soccer after watching this."
Damn right.
no your wrong north americans have been brain washed about soccer from the media , only take a look who sponsors the american sports and all the time outs and you will see what i mean. i grew up with hockey here in canada and i develop a hatred toward it , its just boring shit . and also baseball please when on a sunday afternoon have a great nap while watching it.
Because I love to watch some guy get grazed and then flop on the ground like he has been hit with a baseball bat. Soccer players flop more than Lebron does. Reminds me more of WWE than a real sport
"no your wrong north americans have been brain washed about soccer from the media"
Dude, it's fucking boring.
The majority of North Americans who think soccer is boring have actually seen a soccer game and determined it to be boring. We're not being "brainwashed by the media".
+Ozzy Mosley no it's not its just your countries are full of people with adhd who can't focus for more than 3 minutes at a time. And atmospheres at football are much better than any of your sports with that embarrassing "d fence" and fancy dress/face paint bullshit
Someone should've told them that there's no fighting at WC//Olympics
+Camps2630 It's not that there's no fighting in international games. It's just that if they do fight, they get kicked out. As opposed to the NHL, which just results in a 5 minute penalty.
+RJ8812 10 minute major, and oftentimes an ejection. The reason there's no fighting or brawling in WC/Olympics matches is because the entire team could be disqualified.
*****
It's weird how every comment on your profile is negative on every video. So for this, I won't reply to the 'Scripted hockey fights'. Hell, you said there's no honor anymore in Boxing, just bunch of crazy people...
Why are you singling out 1 country when you say "Americans". EU, North America. They know WWE is fake and real.
What's your favorite sport, or are they all fake and scripted?
*****
So, what's your favorite sport?.
1) I don't watch Wrestling.
2) I'm not American.
3) I updated my comment above.
+Buck Rogers scripted? Aside from some tough guys challenging each other before whistle drop, they are not scripted - Most NHL fights are spur of the moment reactions or retaliations for taking out or messing with a team mate
These Irish guys are hilarious. "Here is some coffee crisp. And here is some of Eastern Ukraine." lol
+DaWhiteWolffie Yeah, that cracked me up too.
+DaWhiteWolffie
I almost died when I heard that
Ikr!!!! 😄
Why show them an international game when they were expecting fights? Show them an NHL-game. Or both.
That's what I said! Lol make them watch a NHL Stanley Cup game!!! Then they'll see how it's really played!!! Ha ha
Why didn't you show them an NHL game?
Full on bench clearing for the win!
local9 Sabres/Senators from '08 or '09, after Drury got taken out. Ray Emery got his ASS beat by Jason Peters in that one. Benches cleared, coaches trying to come over the glass at each other. That rivalry took an ugly turn, and it's been chippy ever since.
nmb nmb its listed as one of the best also.
local9 as a Sabres fan, that was one of my happiest moments as a fan. I wish my boys remembered that. It's less than a decade ago, and the league has changed so much. Guys like that little shit that played for Boston (can't remember his name) skating around, handing out cheap shots. There's no real enforcers to take care of that, and it's frowned upon now. The league needs more guys like Matthew Barnaby and Patty Kaleta rearranging faces. The world isn't ready for another Razor or Domi. Haha.
nmb nmb that's true, the league isn't ready for it due to all the changes. As a person in the UK it's hard to see a game but lately found some local teams I might go see. Still nothing like the big games but it's still in love for the game.
"I understand why North Americans hate soccer after watching this"
Exactly. Soccer is so damn boring to watch compared to hockey.
+Bman54X football and baseball are worse.watching an american football game is like a gay porno 10seconds of huffin and puffin and then the bum fondling begins.
+Bman54X Its really all about how much you know about the sport and how its played. If you're used to soccer and the tactics involved, then the game is pretty damn interesting. When you understand where players in hockey are supposed to be moving and how chances are created, then it also becomes interesting. And so it goes with everything. I personally have a hard time watching baseball. I like hockey a lot, but I don't know strategy or anything yet so its hard to follow for me.
+Bman54X Take Canadians out of the equation and North Americans give as much of a fuck about Hockey as they do about Soccer though ie not much at all.
*****
not sure what that means really it could be said of anything....here it goes watch closely if they took american football out of the us nobody would care about that either.im just not sure where you were going with this
Darrell barron Isnt my point pretty obvious?
"I understand why North Americans hate Soccer after watching this"
Suggests that Americans love Hockey, when in reality Hockey is about as popular in the US as Soccer is.
Why have them watch Olympic hockey? No fighting, less contact, bigger rink different kind of game.
NHL playoff hockey would be better
it's the world championships, not the Olympics. + they prob didnt want to bother with the legalities of showing the (rights protected) nhl games.
+Alice Liddell Still on an Olympic sized rink, which gives more lanes and less collisions. Also note that players aren't going to go 100% during IIHFs because they don't want to get injured before the NHL playoffs. Let's also note that half the players in IIHF are pro's from KHL and NHL and the majority of the players from less skilled countries are quite amateur so the pro's aren't going to absolutely crush the weaker players.
+Mike 17 IIHF Tournament happens during playoffs not before, and includes eliminated players, they do go 100% and it has nothing to do with with NHL playoffs since they are done until the next September
Chris Clark
True, yeah you are right. I was mixing up the Olympics. But, to counter. The IIHF doesn't have all of the best players considering most of them, if good, are still in the NHL playoff, which most like will always consist of the Hawks, Ducks, Rangers, Tampa... all the best players. I think if you are out in the 1st round you can still play in the IIHF though. So maybe there is just less motive behind the tournament.
+Seph F YES PLAYOFF HOCKEY WOULD BE SO MUCH BETTER! The atmosphere is different, everyone finishes their checks and everyone puts in their 100%
ice hockey is the best sport in the world
soccer, hockey is barely top 10 in popularity
popularity does not matter
Not a fan of the Maple Leafs but I agree with you.
Only all of Russia Canada USA austria Finland Sweden Germany Ukraine chzech republic and chzeck slovakia
Its a good sport but not sure i'd put it in the top 5 tbh.
Pre-game gifts: "Here is some Coffee Crisp, aaaand here is some of Eastern Ukraine" :D LMAO
Hey friends.
I'm a Canadian and a long-time hockey fan. I'm also 1/7th Irish (and proud of it!); according to my recently-received Ancestry DNA test results!
Glad to hear you enjoy our pastime and your support of our teams at international events is always appreciated.
To the gals in the video: The game you were watching was the final of this year's World Championships. The championships are an IIHF event.
Fighting is not permitted at IIHF events and players who do are subject to big-time discipline!
Ah Facts, you picked up the wrong match. You should have showed NHL hockey. There is much more intensity than during the World championships or the Olympics. :)
true
+FlyersNation98 Yep. Plus tons of fights in the NHL, international games are much more tame in comparison.
Stanley Cup finals game. Just pick a random one where the scores are close. Best hockey to see.
should've shown them a flyers game. the fights are longer than the game
Fact
They need to see a non-international game. There's no fighting in these games.
There is but it is very rare
Päivi Räsänen international games are more concerned with winning and looking good. You don't see a lot of gritty international games, unless it's US/Canada. I'm guessing by your name you're Finnish. How are the Finland/Sweden matches? Well played and clean, or grind it out with a lot of checking? You guys aren't known for your physical play. You're known for soft hands and finesse.

OO..m
Should've
A: shown a better period
B: shown the NHL, because it gets a lot messier.
Grew up watching the Dallas Stars alongside the UT Longhorns football. Love each sport equally and it's great to see other people enjoying it as well.
I agree! They should've showed them a NHL game! some of those get pretty vicious! My uncle's a Stars fan and I'm a Kings fan. ;) GO KINGS GO!!!

AuraMaster early-mid 90's: the golden age of the "enforcer." Rob Ray, Tie Domi, Basil McCray, Marty McSorley...that list goes on and on.
nmb nmb I meant period as in third of the game. 1st period, 2nd period, 3rd period. The period they showed was super boring.
AuraMaster gotcha. A better era would do, too.
nmb nmb true
Where my fellow Canadians at?
Nowhere
Here
+Nathan Blatt Canada
Here!!!
👐👋
'It's like a snitch in Harry Potter' I laughed much harder than I should have for that
Ryan's laugh is one of my favorite things ever. He does it so rarely that it always feels like an extra treat when it happens.
Why didn't u show them Bruins vs Canadiens or flyers vs penguins
Flyers vs Penguins. Yes. I would love ti see that.
To vs Mtl
Leafs Flyers from the 70's
your name....!!??
Exactly
Should have showed them a Bruins vs Canadians game.
I was expecting an "it's not as good as hurling though" and I was disappointed to not hear it...
With no mention of hurling I'd seriously be revoking their Irish cards
Show them a fucking nhl playoff series not some preseason int tornament
I agree! They should've showed them a NHL game! Some of those get pretty vicious! ;) GO KINGS GO!!!

hockey is hockey, they got the idea
Should have showed them some Avs vs Detroit games in the 90's
This.
"They won 6-1 and that's the period you showed us!" LOL
Should've shown em a boston vs habs game, can't fight in international and they wouldve seen some fights in a habs vs boston😂
+Gloves n such Showing them the Bruins would have permanently put them off watching hockey after they watched all the Boston players dive like pussies.
+BlackVel They play like bitches, BvetDaydream Like hell they do! The Canadiens are the bitches that always pull short stops so they don't get hit.ruins have enough bruisers to take on any team out there.
+Andrew Mildenberg But Im pretty sure the Habs are the ones who get the job done... 24 times...
Andrew Mildenberg Perhaps nowadays. The Canadiens are the most winning team in history though, before the salary cap.
***** Unfortunately not. I wanted to this year but I was in Gothenburg visiting family and I missed it.
they were right though 6-1 and they showed the slowest parts of the game lol
Should've showed them overtime from the 2010 Olympics
They made them watch hockey in an International tournament... not the same at all compared to NHL style hockey.
Make them watch Canada vs USA in a world junior tournament instead, or Habs vs Bruins classic bone crusher
Or a women's Canada Vs. US game
Flyers penguins
WHO A CANADIAN HERE??!!!
Me
Getrekt BOI me
Me
Moi!
ehhh im fuckin dickered bi !
Woulda been cooler to show them NHL. International hockey has fighting as a game misconduct, right?
All of them wanted to see some hockey fights, should have showed them Colorado vs Detroit.
+Chris Lagann or a Flyers vs. anybody game back in the day.
+Chris Lagann Kings Sharks games are brutal. So are Red Wing Blackhawks games.
Bruins vs. Habs would be brutal.
If you want to see fights, NJ vs Philly, or, NJ vs NYR.
Philly vs Anybody.
come on olympic hockey! I was hoping for you guys to show them some NHL!
NHL is the best.
Its not Olympic hockey. Its IIHF tournament after the season finishes. Hall and Ekblad have never played for Team Canada at the Olympics.
Canada scored 6 goals in this game, and they decided to show the most boring period.
In Ireland, there is a game called Hurling, which is pretty much field hockey, played like NHL hockey, meaning they have sticks, goaltenders, 3 forwards 2 backs and fighting, I'm surprised these people aren't mentioning it. Its Irish hockey
You should do "Irish people watch people do a full days work".
Breen Whitman Irish actually work very hard
Yes I've been waiting for waiting for this video!!!
You watched a hockey match on an ice rink with international dimensions during an international competition. This is gentlemen hockey. If you want to watch a more common kind of match, you need to watch a match with North American dimensions from the NHL. I would recommend the last Toronto vs Vancouver match. It had everything you're looking for. Lots of goals, saves, shots and a line brawl (including goalkeepers)...:)
Namin_Aint_Easy bitch that was pussy shit as well. Nobody can even argue with me on this one. Even non habs and bruins fans. Anybody who watches hockey knows the number one rivalry is habs vs bruins. Due to the amount of hate and fights.
"Boom! That is a move" hahaha that was great
Please tell me why you showed an Olympic game where there's no fighting instead of a regular NHL game where there is fighting.
Broadcasting rights.
It wasn't even Olympics. It was IIHF World Championships, which is the tournament that goes on during the NHL playoffs. They chose the most boring hockey possible.
As a canadian I am gaining my teeth at their commentary because of what they think hockey is..............
+Chantel Noneofyourbuissness You're gaining teeth from that? LOL
sweiland75 lol I actually hate auto correct **grinding
SAME
+Chantel Noneofyourbuissness why? They are new to the sport, so they will try and compare it to the dialect and language that they know for the sports they follow. I'm sure you would do the same thing for a sports you know little about.
+Chantel Noneofyourbuissness They didn't get a good sampling at all! The guy even says at the end "So they won 6-1, and that was the period you showed us?"
Plus, it was an WC game, not an NHL game.
So many hilarious comments in this! For some reason I can't stop laughing at the punched loyalty card, "Actually you get to play today" line
Should've shown them Detroit vs Colorado in the late 90's
i always laugh when i hear ppl calling it ice hockey lol its just hockey
+Darrell barron there is also field hockey.
mafiacat88
yes there is but in canada least when i was growing up hockey was hockey and field hockey was field hockey i dont know why is just is.best guess i have is that hockey was first here at least and the others like field hockey or floor hockey are derivatives.thats my best guess anyway.
+Darrell barron Because in Ireland Hockey is field hockey first.
There is off ice hockey
yescooliotime
jus curious do you even have "ice hockey" in ireland?i wish i could go there my heritage is irish and scottish would be cool to see the history of the place.
I like how it's canadian ice hockey and it's canada vs another country, I mean I guess the NHL is american too but more than half the players on even the american teams are usually canadian
+K Alexandra This is European ice hockey bud
roryfitzpatric the title of the video is Canadian Ice Hockey bud
+roryfitzpatric that was literally the point of my comment. I was commenting that it was silly they called it Canadian ice hockey even though it was canada vs another team
"More than half are usually Canadian", you're fucking dumb. Sweden, Finland, Russia, and America make up a lot of the nhl.
Coasty Son www.quanthockey.com/TS/TS_PlayerNationalities.php
Hahahahahahahaha! "There haven't been many 'tackles' at all!" Never heard a check or hit referred to as a tackle. And I've been playing for 28 years. I love videos like this. Especially when there seems to be really pure reactions
Why the shit didn't they pick something like a pens/flyers playoff game where there's 7 goals and 3 fights in one period. An International hockey game when it's not even Canada's best players, where they barely play physical, is actually as bad of a choice as there is.
Irish people watch old spice ads would be great
What people don't really notice about hockey is that it is way less aggressive than what they think
This is frickin awesome
"Synchronised ice dance." Hahahahahahahaha. Also, I want his hoodie.
They needed to watch NHL ..... this stuff is mild.
Facts, you dropped the ball this time.
With baseball, American football and basketball the gimmick was watching these young Irish people's entertaining reactions to the apparently extreme oddities of American sports. But for this ice-hockey bit your on-screen personalities all were clearly disappointed with the results, and well should they be. An international match just doesn't have the violent panache of the NHL.
Better redo this one later this year, and use NHL footage when you do.
"They won 6-1, and THAT's the period you showed us" - LMFAO That seriously made me laugh.
As an average Canadian guy, I've played Hockey all my life. Later, in addition to playing, I started teaching and coaching the game. So it's refreshing, and really fun to see these young Irish folks try to decipher the "Coolest Game on Ice." However, as many commenter's here have noted, it would have been better for them to have seen an NHL Hockey game. They would have seen the hits, fights, and highlights that they were obviously waiting for !
I found this quite amusing as a Canadian watching the reactions, it was just like me watching Football I'm usually bored after the first five minutes. At least hockey has a dive rule, (over embellishment of a hit or trip) football seems to award the player who embellishes the best with the a penalty or card (yellow/red) to the other team, guess everyone can play football even actors, run you bitch run.
Your making a fundamental mistake that all the north american commentators is making.Soccer in ireland is not a religion in ireland like other european countries its very popular and it is a religion to many ,but nationally it has to fight tooth and nail with the three other major sports Gaelic football and hurling and rugby.unfortunately diving has crept into gaelic football ,but definitely not hurling or rugby.The biggest mistake you are making that these are sports fans and even if they were they would be rugby fans judging by there accents which is of course you could not know not being from ireland
Mike football has that same rule, if you clearly dive the player who dove can get a card
Mike Gurney People get yellow cards and suspensions for diving in football if the ref catches it.
have to have them react to hockey hits. would be alot more entertaining
Haha! "No Knuckle Puck! No Flying V! None of the classic hockey tropes." D2 The Mighty Ducks. Greatest kids hockey movie ever
That Canadian accident: "You're watching sports here in torono, eh" Spot on!
Calling hockey "ice hockey" is as aggravating to Canadians as when we call football "soccer", eh. :P
Y2KNW dude. Ice Hockey is played on Ice and its called Hockey. But football and soccer are 2 different words xD
We have our own distinct code of football in ireland search for all ireland football final.As a result atleast half of the irish call football soccer
Not at all. There is roller hockey, field hockey, street hockey, etc.
in Australia its either 'soccer' or 'Australian rules football' which are different sports also where field hockey is popular its called 'hockey'
Y2KNW Hockey is more popular than Ice Hockey, it’s played far more so it makes sense that Ice Hockey is that one that gets the word added to it.
0:40 that was savage!
"Canadians are so friendly in general."
I'm glad you acknowledge that you are just generalizing.
I'd love to see Irish people watch Letterkenny! You'll LOVE it!
Yeah you showed them a crap period.
Congratulations on watching the best sport on the entire planet for the very first time! No erase that pansy football sport from you minds and watch hockey religiously!
This is how desperate hockey fans are to convince people to watch their sport lol. So sad. "Pls!! pls! its so tough and cool! pls watch! plssssssssss!"
@@ministryOFmuff How sad is it for you to hate on others sports. Get a life and ignore them then.
"Boom! That is a move!" that might be one of the cutest examples of someone talking about something they like, that they are being introduced to without any knowledge of. lol
When i saw ice hockey for the first time i loved the contact in it
the asked if the goalies can see the puck and I'm a goalie and I do sometimes lose track of the puck but usually you can follow it
haha " they won 6 - 1 and that's the period you showed "
The 72 Sumit on Ice Series is one of the most iconic in sports history.
Their commentary is so frickin funny!!!
Boston v Vancouver game 7, just the pregame show is better then what they showed or Boston v Montreal
"here's eastern ukraine." bahahahahahahahha
That joke was brilliant ^_~
That sentence alone is a proof of superiority of European schooling over others. I guess Americans wouldn't get the joke.
Oi greetings from Montreal! We love you too!!
I bruised my jawbone from a blocked shot today at my game. Hurt like heck but the show must go on.
Like ya said, we kicked Russia's arse and you show them the slowest period ever???
really soccer fans complaining that there was no score after twenty minutes!! really!??
+Shelly You are making a false assumption how do you know they are soccer fans,Irelands top sports are 1 gaelic football 2 soccer 3 hurling 4 rugby all these sports are high scoring except soccer,Most of these have rural accents so they are more likely to be gaelic football fans or hurling fans since soccer is more city based.Besides hockey is a stick game so wea going to compare it with our national stick sport hurling which has up to 50 scores in a game
Look at gaelic football and hurling videos for real irish sports
Difference between Ice Hockey and Football(Soccer) is hockey there is constantly action and shots on net. Not only are there very few goals in football but no one ever gets near the net. In hockey a goalie might need to make as many as 50 saves or more, in football that is closer to 5-10.
im canadian and i love this video so much
Should have shown nhl.
It was less violent than I imagined it would be...apart from the guy that slammed the other guy into the wall. That's poor form lads.
That's because it's international hockey, if you watched NHL (US and Canada) their teams fight way more
+RavensSarora Even though the NHL is far more physical than Int. hockey, even the NHL is far softer now than the NHL was pre 2000's. Too many issues in North America with concussions, player suicides, dementia from head trauma in gridiron, so the NFL scaled back. Hockey sort of self-regulated with the times to mitigate scrutiny; scaling fighting back, protecting players etc . The NHL is too wealthy of a league to carry the back alley gangster mentality anymore, or to have some lughead enforcer put a multi-million dollar star athlete in the hospital. NHL has cracked down a bit on the violence/enforcer culture in 21rst century.
+RavensSarora lol It was international ^^ Watch an NHL game ;) Chris Neal will clean someones mouth out.
So what you're all saying is - Canada will only beat the fuck out of other Canadians, and also Americans. Everyone else is safe.
RavensSarora lol Players get kicked out of the game for fighting in international
“It’s like a war on ice” couldn’t have said it better myself
The description of Eakin is just the best thing I've ever heard
Shows them a lack-luster period of hockey....
did your man at the start in the blue jumper seriously go completely gray in one year?
seriously did a double take when i saw him
stopped dying his hair
They should have showed them game 7 in 2013 Stanley cup finals. My favorite to date. A comeback, sudden death overtime, what more can you ask for?
When the puck drops it's like a full moon. We go through the change.
why didn't you pick an NHL GAME? International games aren't as entertaining
dude the are expecting a fight ... so them some fights ... there's no fighting in IIHF ... even the guy says the period sucks
I love that you showed them an IIHF game
You should've showed them "Together we can" hockey video, thats the best!
It's just hockey, not ice hockey, why would you call it that?
+Meep because there's hockey played on grass as well
+Cameron Fitton why would you do that that makes no sense like how does the puck slide? That's basicly lacrosse
+Meep Bear in mind that they also call football "American football" :)
+Meep There's street hockey and field hockey too. Street's pretty fun. Roller blades and a round ball.
+NemesisKismet And adults play it? Here only kids play that during the summer when there's no ice :/
