Very proud of our National team.
Especially proud of Brown & O'Sullivan.
I hope its the last we see of Teemu Sellane.
I can't stand that cry baby.
Just retire and go away.
Back to that sewer you crawled out of.
And take that piecce of garbage Pronger and Kunitz with you.
Anthony,
I'll give you $1 for every positive post you contribute starting now.
Teemu Selanne is a pure goal scorer and one of the finest Europeans to ever put on a pair of skates, and you hope it's the last you've ever seen of him? That's just sad.
Wasn't the comment on Brown & O'Sullivan positive?
I guess you owe me a dollar.
And you call yourself a voice of reason.
Yes Selanne can shoot and score but he is still a big cry baby! I hope he's gone for good. And you do owe Anthony a dollar!
Glad Brown and Sully got to play in May!
Its true. There was a positive Anthony post sighting.
Its OK to hate on Teemu, 1: he's a stupid duck, 2: he is a big crybaby.
Anthony should expect a dollar soon. Make it a roll of pennies just for fun.
From all reports, sully and brown had a great tourny!
