Not even the biggest collapse this year. Last years NHL playoffs had the Bruins up 3 games to none on the Flyers and up 3-0 in game 7 only to blow it. Game 5 of the 72 series saw Canada winning 4-1 with 11 minutes to go, only to lose 5-4. The Junior tourney is a great tourney but far from comparable to the Stanley Cup playoffs or the 72 Summit Series. How can you take this loss so hard when our best players weren't in the tournament.

@Irekyu well tell what the biggest is then? if not this game....

[Irekyu]

@jagjagjag009 Yes, a collapse but not "the biggest collapse in hockey history" as you said

[jagjagjag009]

@Irekyu that game was forsure a collapse, if you think something else your just deny your self

[Irekyu]

@jagjagjag009 In what small world do you live in that blowing a 3-0 lead is "the biggest collapse in hockey history"

[Irekyu]

@SuperZnark "Give up Canada, next year we will win" Every year you say that. At what point do your words lose all meaning. I've never seen a country so confidant, while only once in history have they been at the top of the mountain.

@Irekyu So you dont think sweden did a horrible game, especially the goaltending...Give up Canada, next year we will win

[Irekyu]
