@Puckstop101 Not likely since the new owner will probably be Jerry Reinsdorf (owner of the Chicago Bulls and Chicago White Sox). He isn't going to move the Yotes when his baseball team just built its new spring training home in Glendale (where the Coyotes actually play).
As an American and a St. Louis Blues fan, I DON'T believe in Roberto Luongo! I live in fear of him and his otherworldly goaltending! :) HA! The Jets! I like to play NHL 93 on the Super Nintendo and win the Cup as the Jets or the Nordiques
Well, Someone needs to teach NBC a thing or too about the Canadian teams especially the most "storied" franchise in NHL history, The Montreal Canadians ;)
@Junker8 Wrong. Parise was born in Minnesota. The people from Minnesota may speak like Canadians but it's still America. And who really cares if they're coached by Canadians? The players are still American.
You forgot to mention that the Canadiens have won 23 Stanley Cups. As much as that pains me as a Bruins fan, NBC would definitley be obligated to mention that.
I apologize, @medivhan. Regardless, NBC would be obligated to mention this fact, though most American sports fans ought to know this fact anyway; only the Yankees have won more championships in the big 4 major league sports.
@blackhawks116 I really don't miss that play. I do miss Steeger's former line mate Andrew Ladd though as Bolly doesn't look the same without Ladd. I also don't miss Kris Versteeg's ability to ruin a 3-1 odd man rush by shooting as soon as he carries the puck into the zone.
@BjGard The USA doesn't really compete in any team sports that other countries take seriously. Baseball, Football, Basketball? Hockey's more popular on the world stage than any of those (maybe tied with Basketball, which a Canadian invented anyway).
hile the cup may be moderately safe from Canadian hands this year, don't you worry, we'll bring it home sooner than later. We'll wait. We'll take some ribbing, we'll build our teams strong then we're comin' to get'cha!! ;)
The problem with this video is that it is too frigging accurate. And, as the video mocks, 20 of the 24 American teams (excluding Pittsburgh, Detroit, Washington, and the goddamn fucking Rangers) don't get a sniff of national TV either. And then the NHL and NBC twiddle their thumbs, "Why won't nobody watch our sport/programming?!" Hmm, maybe because 90% of the teams are shit on and would sooner listen to it on their local radio. Self-fulfilling prophecy.
LOLongo was still in Olympics mode, he saw the silver cup the Canucks were trying to win so he thought he had to lose to get it so he crapped the bed against Boston, rofl.
Yeah, the Flames have several former Leafs, but they also are twice as talented, have better goaltending and are, along with the Canucks, Canada's best chance at a Stanley Cup yet. Yet they will probably fail.
Wow Canada won gold in a sport about 2-3 countries takes half ass seriously. (USA) not being one of them. Get over it.. Wake me when Canada does well in a significant sport.. I know you wanna bring up the medal count but seriously.. Gold in Womens hockey, bobsleigh, skeleton... Does that really fill you with pride? Remember the summer olympics where Michael Phelps won more medals than the entire Canadian team.. I would say that is pretty embarassing
@juzu4me They don't come close to selling out those 24 arenas, it's a novelty, a joke and a gimmick.. There is nobody talking about Hockey anywhere south of Minnesota and nobody is playing hockey in the streets like you see in Mighty Ducks 2. There would be probably close to 52 million Americans watching the Gold medal game if USA was in the final for Water Polo. It was headliner of the Winter Olympics (not the real olympics) so of course the ratings were high, but its not because they care
"Do you believe in miracles?"
"NooOOoOoO, I believe in Roberto Luongo!"
LOL!
"lengthy ceremony before every game" lmao im dying. Go habs go.
The Ottawa senators .. A team featuring two young goaltenders who get to play in every game.
Whos here when the oilers were featured on NBC
This young team has two exciting young goalies! Both of whom get to play in EVERY game...
This is hilarious!
I'm a Montreal Canadiens fan but the description is embarrassingly true.
love the way you say canada at the beginning haha
They did show the Edmonton Oilers on NBC, in 06,when they played the Wings & the Hurricanes.
3:03 is gold. "Wait.. what??"
"two young goalies, both of whom get to play in every game" LMFAO
The Flame part really cracked me up. xD
lol at teh Kessel bit.
PRICELESS. I don't even know where to begin with this one.xD
Adding to my favourites.
this is one of the best videos ive ever seen
@anthoy8 I mean to type that to Nicklin, my bad!
"Future Maple Leaf Jerome Iginla"...LOL
@Puckstop101 Not likely since the new owner will probably be Jerry Reinsdorf (owner of the Chicago Bulls and Chicago White Sox). He isn't going to move the Yotes when his baseball team just built its new spring training home in Glendale (where the Coyotes actually play).
The Edmonton Oilers: Will Never been on NBC
XD
Warning: Winnipeg Jets are currently playing as the Phoenix Coyotes.
As an American and a St. Louis Blues fan, I DON'T believe in Roberto Luongo! I live in fear of him and his otherworldly goaltending! :)
HA! The Jets! I like to play NHL 93 on the Super Nintendo and win the Cup as the Jets or the Nordiques
This one is great :)
but what is the problem with the oilers?
background?
Awesome stuff. Too bad NBC doesn't put that much effort into their hockey coverage.
Well, Someone needs to teach NBC a thing or too about the Canadian teams especially the most "storied" franchise in NHL history, The Montreal Canadians ;)
What's really funny is Miller now plays for Vancouver!
@Junker8 Wrong. Parise was born in Minnesota. The people from Minnesota may speak like Canadians but it's still America.
And who really cares if they're coached by Canadians? The players are still American.
The Edmonton Oilers: WILL NEVER BE ON NBC.
2006 Stanley Cup Finals say hi
can't stop watching this
Team Canada got bailed out and didnt even play good, but yet they still talk about how they won gold...woww.... Luongo was shakey as hell too
Very entertaining.. really gotta kick outta the Jets disclaimer! good stuff!!!
"do you believe in miracles? noooo! i belive in roberto lu-WON-go!"
Do you believe in miracles? No...I believe in Roberrrrto Luongggo ROFL
@johnycannuk wait what?
XD Whats with the praise of the Toronto Make me Laughs? :P
Do you believe in miracles? No, I believe in Roberto Luongo.
the edmonton oilers, will NEVER be shown on NBC
The Edmonton Oilers....will never be on NBC hahahahaha f*cking hilariousXD Love the Winnipeg Jets part too:)
Haha that was hill-arry!!
You forgot to mention that the Canadiens have won 23 Stanley Cups. As much as that pains me as a Bruins fan, NBC would definitley be obligated to mention that.
i pissed at the senators part, especially 1:38
Funny thing is, it was Phaneuf that ultimately became a Maple Leaf.
I think when Nicklin said 'Canada', he meant 'Russia', and by 'gold' he means 'nothing', and by 'Luongo' he means 'the entire russian team'. =D
I apologize, @medivhan. Regardless, NBC would be obligated to mention this fact, though most American sports fans ought to know this fact anyway; only the Yankees have won more championships in the big 4 major league sports.
Warning: Winnipeg Jets are now the Winnipeg Jets. GO JETS!!
ottawa "exciting team!?" HAHAHAHAH
Why don't you go ahead and watch the game that propelled them to the Gold Medal game again, that massive save he made on Pavol Demitra (RIP)
"And an exciting young rosssster"
@blackhawks116 I really don't miss that play. I do miss Steeger's former line mate Andrew Ladd though as Bolly doesn't look the same without Ladd. I also don't miss Kris Versteeg's ability to ruin a 3-1 odd man rush by shooting as soon as he carries the puck into the zone.
@qwertyman129 Rob Schneider is....a Canadian Hockey team!
Great video!
@BjGard I'm an American and too me hockey is more of a significant sport than basketball, football ,and baseball.
The NHL gets a certain percentage of whatever revenue from advertising NBC gets.
Phil Kessel vs. the Boston Bruins hahahahahaha
@TheWarmplate
yeah, man. we got this.
the Oilers have already been on NBC
Great vid!
@BjGard The USA doesn't really compete in any team sports that other countries take seriously. Baseball, Football, Basketball? Hockey's more popular on the world stage than any of those (maybe tied with Basketball, which a Canadian invented anyway).
Who made this?
phil kessel skating down the other wing!!!!!!
too true
haha the calgary flames. Just like watching the maple leafs only 2 hours later
Roberto Luongo is the last reason you won the gold medal....
hile the cup may be moderately safe from Canadian hands this year, don't you worry, we'll bring it home sooner than later. We'll wait. We'll take some ribbing, we'll build our teams strong then we're comin' to get'cha!! ;)
Millers knees sure were shakin when Crosby scored through that fuckin 6'4 twig's legs! Still bitter after a month? LOL

does that make you feel better about losing? because it shouldnt. Always remember, you'll never be as good as us at hockey.
The Canucks part was plain stupid and ruined something that was funny. And I say this as a Canadian.
USA 2014!
@13lackhawk13 You're right, I am not a Hab. I am, however, a Canadian. And I hate the Sens. Deal with it.
Is this guy a Canucks fan...? Because if he is, he's awesome! Lui all the way!
The narrator sounds like a South Park character.
LOLongo was still in Olympics mode, he saw the silver cup the Canucks were trying to win so he thought he had to lose to get it so he crapped the bed against Boston, rofl.
just like watching the maple leafs. just two hours later
LMAO!!!
they should make a commercial explaining what offside is for american fans
Yeah, the Flames have several former Leafs, but they also are twice as talented, have better goaltending and are, along with the Canucks, Canada's best chance at a Stanley Cup yet. Yet they will probably fail.
lol
LOLOLOL
Lol
CANADA!!!!!!!!
nhl needs to come back to abc
Massive win.
I'm an American but LMFAOO
The Canucks part was just stupid and ruined a good thing
Wow Canada won gold in a sport about 2-3 countries takes half ass seriously. (USA) not being one of them. Get over it.. Wake me when Canada does well in a significant sport.. I know you wanna bring up the medal count but seriously.. Gold in Womens hockey, bobsleigh, skeleton... Does that really fill you with pride?

.... All the refs in the gold medal game were Canadian...
lol at the canucks Love it
5 wins in 6 games, exactly the same as the Americans.
Lmao, hilarious! Best parts were about the Oilers and Jets, IMO.
Canada: Barely better than the US at their own game. See you in 2014!
do you believe in miracles?? NOOOOOO i believe in roberto LUONGO
I BELIEVE IN ROBERTO LUONGO
You got it, 1 year too early. Canucks plz win!!!!
Winnipeg Jets? Not cool. PHOENIX COYOTES FOREVER!!!

@senatorsman1200 might be because BlogeSalming and DownGoesBrown are leafs blogs?
Haha!! Hill-arry!!
You do realize Jamie Langenbrunner made your countries team right?
Enough said.
Better luck in 2014.
lol the leafs and flames and oilers got owned!!

Why are people actually taking this video seriously? It's a joke video made by a hilarious hockey/humor blogger. Just laugh and stop arguing.
Bring back the Jets!
Canuck fans don't believe in Luongo lol
