The "average American" doesn't exist. Too vast a country, too many sectional interests, too many people. My problem with Canadians immediately discrediting the "average American" who talks hockey, much less PLAYS hockey, is that you assume this false sense of superiority over ALL Americans. That's the ignorance. Living along the border, I myself have more in common culturally with Canadians than I do Californians. Don't lump as all together and assume that we don't know what we're talking about.

He's right.

@crazytalk0 Even Soviet coaches in the past once said we are skilled we can compete with the Canadians, but we don`t have the heart of the Canadians. This is the reason Canada wil always be the top hockey country in the world, the heart and passion, at the Vancouver olympics, Canada could have iced multiple teams to take home the gold, leaving out guys like Stamkos, Richards, Lecalvalier, Carter, Giroux, Myers, Duchene, Taveres, etc and still having Skinner, Hopkins, Hall,Eberle, et all devop

i didn't know the americans only started playing hockey at 14-15 years old; only after they went to canada of course. seems to me they most likely started playing and learning the game in the united states at 4-5 years of age. i like cherry, he's a funny guy, but don't bitch at the kids for playing in the major juniors in canada if those teams are recruiting them there.

@montag14226 great point, Just make sure you know that all Canadians aren't ignorant and think all americans know nothing about hockey.

@forkliftpilot I'm late to the party here, but...we would love to develop our own players in America. But the CHL seems to LOVE them enough to poach them away. so don't give me that Canadian arrogance since your league seems to like our players enough to entice them away anyways. Let them develop where they want. Don't rag on me because I'm an American that BLEEDS hockey year round and actually knows a thing or two. Go ahead... argue with me. I can do this all day.
