Johnny, I think you really underrated Switzerland in real life and overrate Slovenia. Slovenia has 1 NHL player. They're not even close to Swiss level. Also yes, Czechs vs. Slovaks is a big rivalry, but it's a friendly one and they tend to root for each other when they don't play each other.
Carey Price? Doesn't have a ring to it It sure is for everyone, but that doesn't mean Canada isn't the best at it :) Also wow.. "drink bleach"... you get upset pretty easily, don't you?
I hate that Slovenia is not in there. Anze Kopitar one of the best players in NHL, we have only 546 hockey players registered (only 2 milion people live in Slovenia) and we made it to the Olympic games. Copy paste it EA that's what you do the best. I been waiting for Slovenia national team in NHL 14 after we made it to the Olympic games but i guess EA doesn't give a fuck about us.
Olympics were great! People talking about teams having injuries in the tournament but forget that Canada did not have 60 goal scorer Stamkos, lost Tavares vs. Latvia, and didn't get Couture because of injury. Duchene and St. Louis came through clutch. They got the gold without their best goal scorer Stamkos. That tournament was all about depth. It's too bad USA didn't get a medal because they were a powerhouse. They just didn't have the proper depth to stop offensive bulls like Finland
I hope Johnny realizes that in this game players outside of NHL has lower overall's just because they don't play in NHL. In reality lot's of them are on equal level.
Imagine if that were the gold medal game. 24 years after the miracle game. Would be a VERY interesting game. Probably the most watched event of the whole Olympics.
The miracle game was 34 years ago. And it was a semi-final. USA defeated Finland for the gold. Also, the real buzz kill is that the Final this year is going to played at 7am eastern time, it will re-air at primetime but the result will already be known. Effin Russia.
Well, the games we´re previously in Vancouver, so it was really nice to follow from Finland (games at midnight to dawn mainly). Just watch streams if your local channels don´t broadcast it live (y)
mcwham1 I know they didn't beat Russia in the gold medal game and I thought I hit 3 my mistake. Just saying it would be insanely interesting to see that be the gold medal game this year.
Until today when Finland's new injury news came out I had Sweden and Finland in the finals, with the US and Canada for the bronze. But as a Stars fan I would love to see Big Val score the Olympic winner
How do you edit the international rosters? I tried doing it by player movement but I don't know how I can swap St. Louis with Stamkos without taking St. Louis off the TB Lightning.
Two little tips. We, ragin' russians, pronounce CH in NiCHushkin (Ничушкин) the same way as in «CHair» or «CHop». And i understand that it's the rule to make stress on the first syllable but they're YakUpov and DatsYUk. Just sayin'.
lol, have you been watching the last few Olympics? In 2010, Canada beat Switzerland in SO. In 2006, Switzerland beat Canada 2-0 or 3-0. Switzerland has also had some very competitive games with other teams.
The Swiss are WAY underrated. Seriously, they went undefeated in 2013 WC until the final. And the same thing kind of goes for Finland. It's really a shame that this game doesn't give massive overall boosts for teamplay and good chemistry. Russia started about right, but then they somehow managed to beat Canada.
look, i think giroux is more worthy, you can think that St. Louis is better but i disagree. Keep your stand point and i'll keep mine i was just stating a fact.
Weird simulation where guys like Berglund, Tarasenko, Handzus and Hemsky gets more goals then ANY of Malkin, Datsyuk, Sedin, Zetterberg, Steen, Ovechkin, Hossa, Crosby, Perry, Nash, Kane, and other players. Oh well I still enjoyed the vid but that simulation engine is...interesting.
predictions gold-slovenija silver-latvija bronze-norway fourth-austria JK im canadian serbian but i have no hopes in my canadians I think sewden and the U.S will be in the gold medal game
Nakoah Prince If you questioned about the spelling they spell it Latvija but im pretty sure your talking about how there is no way they'll win HAHAHAHA
David Huynh still, USA has a pretty good team. In real life, we choked near the end and got shutout freaking twice. Still though, EA's simulation logic makes absolutely no sense sometimes.
I think we're looking at:
Gold: Canada
Silver: Sweden
Bronze (already happened): Finland
I hope they win but Sweden is always tough. Cannot count out the Scandinavians. One goal game.
Awww.... :( There's nothing like a good old Finland-Sweden rivalry :D
After the gold medal game Putin wrestled a bear shirtless on the ice.
Johnny, I think you really underrated Switzerland in real life and overrate Slovenia. Slovenia has 1 NHL player. They're not even close to Swiss level.

Thank you,!!!! sorry, but if someone compares the Level of Switzerland with Slovenia, dear god in heaven on which world live this People?
Kopitar is on Slovenia.
M. Koivu and Filppula are hurt.
Sobotka hurt as well.
Where Dadonov? Haha
Absolutely loved it, thanks John.
Canada = best hockey country in the world.
***** And Latvia this year. (both Olympics and World Championship)
Lauriic54
lol sure
ehhhhh NO,,,, NEVER
Juri Lapuch No to what?
Carey Price? Doesn't have a ring to it It sure is for everyone, but that doesn't mean Canada isn't the best at it :) Also wow.. "drink bleach"... you get upset pretty easily, don't you?
8th! wow russia wins and Canada gets destroyed right after the round robin... I hope this isnt how the real Olympics play out
Should not have read the comments before...
Screw u!!!!!!!!!
i just skipped til the end because of this comment
Suomi mainittu torilla tavataan :D
:D
This is actually a very entertaining video, passing the time nicely.
Finland didn't have Mikko Koivu, Saku Koivu, Valtteri Filppula or Aleksander Barkov and they are one of Finland's best players
They had barkov
But he was injured before game against Sweden
kakka i know this is a late reply, but canada was also missing players because of injuries: stamkos, tavares, and couture to name a few.
Also don't forget that finland had most of those players in their game against canada
Yoni Blumenfeld most of hose players against canada? What u mean? And it sucks when good players are injured
I hate that Slovenia is not in there. Anze Kopitar one of the best players in NHL, we have only 546 hockey players registered (only 2 milion people live in Slovenia) and we made it to the Olympic games. Copy paste it EA that's what you do the best. I been waiting for Slovenia national team in NHL 14 after we made it to the Olympic games but i guess EA doesn't give a fuck about us.
148 professional players, 7 ice rinks, one professional team ... Wish we would put more in hockey instead of fucking football.
Olympics were great! People talking about teams having injuries in the tournament but forget that Canada did not have 60 goal scorer Stamkos, lost Tavares vs. Latvia, and didn't get Couture because of injury.

It's too bad USA didn't get a medal because they were a powerhouse. They just didn't have the proper depth to stop offensive bulls like Finland
***** Too bad Finland could't stand against Russian referee's. Maybe next year.
Tequilafilms Inc. Yeah I guess so. The games are called as fair as they can though, sometimes a penalty doesn't get called, just like in the NHL.
You are by far one of the most interesting and best commentators for the nhl franchise :p keep it up, great content
Thx alot it was very fun watching:)
should of put dadonov on russia
I hope Johnny realizes that in this game players outside of NHL has lower overall's just because they don't play in NHL. In reality lot's of them are on equal level.
Es to pashu tiko gribeeju rakstiit ! ;d
This was a great idea Johnny. Ur a beauty
loved this video, great job!
Are you sure that its going to be vodka? Because last year it was Pepsi Ilya!
funny how "RUSSIA!" alctually lost early.
When you say "Lundqvist needs a bounceback" In the beginning, he has 9 wins in his last 11 starts with like a 1.6 GAA and a .940 SP%
awesome vid man loved it
Filppula and and M. Koivu are both injured.
Id like to see this again but with your own lines , keep the roster but do your own lines
Imagine if that were the gold medal game. 24 years after the miracle game. Would be a VERY interesting game. Probably the most watched event of the whole Olympics.
The miracle game was 34 years ago. And it was a semi-final. USA defeated Finland for the gold. Also, the real buzz kill is that the Final this year is going to played at 7am eastern time, it will re-air at primetime but the result will already be known. Effin Russia.

I know they didn't beat Russia in the gold medal game and I thought I hit 3 my mistake. Just saying it would be insanely interesting to see that be the gold medal game this year.
Big thanks for this one!
But, Koivu and Filp aren't going to the Olympics because of injury.
You missed Koivu and Filppula for Finland. They're out for the Olympics. Huge losses for them.
Love how u did the u should do it every winter Olympics keep up the good work
The more I watch videos and read news about the Olympic hockey the less I can wait. :D
Latvia beat Switzerland 3:1 and is in the playoffs!
There backup goalie is OP
Slovenia - Slovakia (3:1). I guess Slovenia should've been in there :D
It´s a a big shame, what Slovaks played against Slovenians. I am Slovak and their game not impressed me
Until today when Finland's new injury news came out I had Sweden and Finland in the finals, with the US and Canada for the bronze. But as a Stars fan I would love to see Big Val score the Olympic winner
Great video!
Bieber on Switzerland
Finns were fantastic in Sochi. :D Pretty different game against russia in reality. :D
i almost thorw'd my mac to wall when you show'd that finland-sweden game
Awesome video.
Hope you have changed to the bigger rink (if its even possible in this game) because irl it makes a huge difference
I dont think it is
This is Latvia's year~!
How do you edit the international rosters? I tried doing it by player movement but I don't know how I can swap St. Louis with Stamkos without taking St. Louis off the TB Lightning.
Johnny: "ahh that's much better" always says that lol
Koivu and Filppula not play
Thats true ;(( so finland is fucked! :DD
PersuKarvaXD
toi su nimes :D:D:D:D:D:D::DDD
ThePatakortti99 Paras :DD
PersuKarvaXD Suomi PERKELE. Ei hätää sveitsi voittaa kisat meidän puolesta :)
MrNipsuli :DDD Juu Juu
Finns won't have M. Koivu or Filppula
Two little tips. We, ragin' russians, pronounce CH in NiCHushkin (Ничушкин) the same way as in «CHair» or «CHop». And i understand that it's the rule to make stress on the first syllable but they're YakUpov and DatsYUk. Just sayin'.
lol, have you been watching the last few Olympics? In 2010, Canada beat Switzerland in SO. In 2006, Switzerland beat Canada 2-0 or 3-0. Switzerland has also had some very competitive games with other teams.
Mike Smith? Luongo should be on there.
luongo is only rated 85 in this game to mike smiths 88 but I agree id prefer to see luongo
lol this is definatly whats going to happen lol
Awesome video
The Swiss are WAY underrated. Seriously, they went undefeated in 2013 WC until the final. And the same thing kind of goes for Finland. It's really a shame that this game doesn't give massive overall boosts for teamplay and good chemistry. Russia started about right, but then they somehow managed to beat Canada.
why did you raise crosby's stats to 99?
Because in the game he wasn't always a PPG (point per game) player.
Canada is going to win the gold like in 2010
true
I'm from the future that did win
As a Czech, it's SO funny to hear you reading all those Czech names :D
This was so intense, I actually screamed when Kovalchuck scored the game winner lol
Filipula and Mikko Koivu is not participating
Yeah true lol
The only Slovenian NHLer is Anze Kopitar
Yeah I remember him. I was just saying current NHLers. Is Mursak on the Slovenian team in the Olympics???
Hopefully they surprise people :p
that how you say those names is so epic
Yeah I have. He's been the best goalie in the nhl this year.
Lol EA gave Russia 5-3 advantage for half the second period. Seems about right
Bronze: Russia
Silver: USA
Gold: Canada
There is no way any team can out score Canada enough to even compete for the gold.
Remington.270 have you seen swedens team?
I am czech and it's so funny to hear how johny tries to read the names. :D
Hossa was injured. He is playing for Latvian Dinamo Riga team (KHL)
lol at russia today
Lost against a great team that always seems to take a medal... "Big surprise"? No.
GO CANADA GO!!!!!!!!!!!
I made a simulation of every team from round robin to the gold medal game. I had the real rosters and created Slovenia. I had fun playing.
The Swiss held their own
USA won gold when the olympics were in USA, Canada won in Canada, and now Russia will win in Russia.
^ Home ice advantage is huge, especially in the Olympics
Didn`t canada wiin in salt lake
Yes in 2002 but I was really thinking about Miracle. I don't know how I completely missed the 2002 olympics.
What the hell are you talking about? Canada won gold in men's ice hockey in 02 at Salt Lake.
***** 1980 Olympic games in Lake Placid, the same Olympics when "The Miracle On Ice" occurred.
im still mad that canada didnt pick claude giroux aleast we got 5 other flyers going to sochi
flyers suck so glad they didn't pick him
st louis>giroux
Chuck Saucesky thats why giroux has more points
***** What's your point Grioux has 1 more point then MSL but MSL in the past four year has the most points from any player.
look, i think giroux is more worthy, you can think that St. Louis is better but i disagree. Keep your stand point and i'll keep mine i was just stating a fact.
How do you get the updated rosters for the teams?
Weird simulation where guys like Berglund, Tarasenko, Handzus and Hemsky gets more goals then ANY of Malkin, Datsyuk, Sedin, Zetterberg, Steen, Ovechkin, Hossa, Crosby, Perry, Nash, Kane, and other players.
Oh well I still enjoyed the vid but that simulation engine is...interesting.
Gold - Canada
Silver - Sweden
Bronze - US
bronze- Finland**
haha not even bronze
bronze finland us sucks
Nail yakupov is not on team Russia it's Alexander semin so this simulation is wrong just a bit
i love this
The player you were thinking of on Slovenia is Anze Kopitar
Gudas Fear the beard !
Filpula and Koivu aren't playing for Finland
How did you update the team line up
Bobrovsky 84 Varlamov 82 Prise 91 . Are you serious ?
It's funny how canada probably will never to lose to a petty team like Russia and it will be USA vs canada again
Don't get me wrong man Canada is clearly the best which is awesome, but you shouldn't underestimate Russia. Their top 6 is nasty...
canada will not win any medal
Roger Kaplan just a quick question what are you on
Roger Kaplan you are just a hater
Just saying val filppula and mikko koivu are both out
Best video ever and I'm only like 8 minutes in.
man, i love how did you say czech names, because I am from Czech Republic :D
predictions
gold-slovenija
silver-latvija
bronze-norway
fourth-austria
JK im canadian serbian but i have no hopes in my canadians I think sewden and the U.S will be in the gold medal game
wtf latvia!?!?! hahahahahaha
Nakoah Prince If you questioned about the spelling they spell it Latvija but im pretty sure your talking about how there is no way they'll win HAHAHAHA
Yeah my spelling suckee but i was pointing out thé impossibilty of thème being silver material
Sucked*
where is finland... :D:D wtf none of those will be on top 4
HAAHAH TRE KRONOOO LOVE U
Fantastic finns, lol. Love you, man.
How did you change the roster on each team?
It will be
Canada-gold
USA-silver
Sweden-bronze
Russia-forth
Canada and usa are on same side
Nope it will be
Canada-Gold
USA-Silver
Finland-Bronze
Russia-Forth
Fin Vallaton the us cant get gold or silver if canada gets gold or silver
Fin Vallaton Nope it will be
Gold: Canada
Silver: Swedan
Bronze- Finland
Fourth: USA
ExplodedGEORGE v2 You posted this 6 minutes ago, it already happened so you know.
Lol, both Russia and USA did not even get a medal. And how does Slovakia beat the USA with the rosters set the way they are?
David Huynh still, USA has a pretty good team. In real life, we choked near the end and got shutout freaking twice. Still though, EA's simulation logic makes absolutely no sense sometimes.
Best video ever! Make more awesome videos!! Canada won Sweden in gold game 3 - 0!!
Actually in Play-off there is a shootout too after overtime.
Bouwmeester should be playing instead of Hamhuis, just saying.
thy are both playing tho...
I mean in Johnny's simulation. In real life Giordano should be on the Olympic team instead of Hamhuis.
Trevor Humphrey Hamhuis isn't going
iiTz LaMia oh lol sorry I didn't know ty for the correction
Trevor Humphrey
Im from vancouver and i think hamhuis is our worst defencmen
Canada rules in real life other country's think they have a chance it's hilarious
pfff
hampus swe haha world world championships are a joke. Dion Phaneuf was the captain last year proving that it means nothing
omg the game Canada-Latvia so intense
"Congratulasshia" - hahaha!
us won 7-1 today
its was a awesome game
Manoli Andreas YES. Yes it was
Fuck you Slovakia WIN
Spoiler it was Canada
Not a spoiler when the Olympics were how long ago?
The olympics are done but this is just as exciting as the actual olympics. Johnny makes it more exciting.
My popcorn ready
