Kukla’s Korner is always a free service for readers, but it costs some money to maintain. If you’re ever in a position to donate a few dollars to help out, we’d be very appreciative.
Ease tension - are you effing daft? We hated those pricks and any Canadian my age (over 50) or older still hates them to this day. At any international tournament, it’s not really about the gold for us, it’s about beating them. There are so many subplots to this - the Russian referees, the systematic phone calls to players rooms all night, the tainting of the food, interference from Russian soldiers and so on and they still claim that they won the series because they scored more goals in total.
