Breaking News: Swedish dressing room like a barracks
You've gone ahead and made it clear that you believe the Swiss are just as upset about their dressing room situation by your disagreement.
But I've got to agree with him, odds are, they don't care about where they changed, they care that they are now going to play in a medal game.
Oh yeah, where did I say that? In fact, I think i clearly stated that the Swedes care as little as the Swiss players, seeing as they said that it didn't bother them and they'd change in the stands if they had to.
It wouldn't be an issue if it wasn't deliberate.
And besides, I wouldn't care eather if it wasn't for all the canadians here saying it's just conspiracy theories spouted by soore looser making excuses for themselfs next time they loose.
It's all the arrogance that makes this an issue.
No I think a lot of you do actually care, which is sad. Anyways, i've said my piece on this and am not gonna get into a deep discussion regarding proper etiquette for visiting teams and dressing rooms in hockey arenas as i'm not one of these players and haven't participated in these tournaments. My two cents, concentrate on the game and not on the little things around it. You win the tournament, nobody will remember any of this crap. Don't sweat the small stuff.

Taking a page from my American relatives when someone complains about the US-----if you think we're picking on you------STAY THE HELL AWAY.
I'm sure if this was an issue with the Americans, Swiss, Fins, Czechs, Latvians, Slovaks, Austrians or Russians we would have heard about it.
Only one paper from Sweden has complained, that tells me what I need to know.
If Sweden was only practising, and their were other teams there for actual games, then what is the big deal with this?
Everyone outside of Canada is just looking for an excuse to **** on the home team because they dominate the tournament year in, year out. It's really getting laughable.
People should suck it up, after all, it's not a game..it was PRACTISE man, we're talkin 'bout PRACTISE, not a game, not a game...PRACTISE

Three showers!?! I don't know... do they really need three - seems like alot.
3 is a lot ... agreed !
I remember an advertisement of a beer ... where they show waterfalls, huge wheat fields, mountains and .... amazing Canada. Huge resources !!
I guess it is personal.

Exactly. Who needs showers when you've got waterfalls in every backyard?
Seriously? This tournament has been going on for over 30 years and Canada has never in that time gotten a crappy dressing room anywhere else in the world? It's just not an issue.
I'm sure they have. And if the Toronto media mentioned it there'd be a 20 page thread on here about it. That's just HFBoards for you.
Canada not only needs the home advantage but tries every possible way to try to win a tournament unfairly. Quite hilarious, so much for the powerhouse.
Yeah. Team Canada clearly needed the home advantage to win gold in the US, Sweden and the Czech Republic.
Quite hilarious, so much for your whining and flawed logic.

I'm sorry I couldn't make you out our 15 gold medals were making too much noise. Could you say that again?
