There is incredibly little class and dignity being displayed this year.

4 years ago it was not this bad.

4 years ago the snowflakes were still age 12 and 13.

and 8 years ago they were 4 or 5.

That means they grew up in the obama years and have leaned no respect for anything except what they want.

What did she want them to do- give the silver medal to someone else? Or insist they ALL get gold medals for participating??

Hockey shoot-outs are pretty lame.

Ties are ties.

How HORRIBLE to dis your entire NATION like that. Put her on an ice flow and push her out to sea!

I’ve watched little of the Olympics this time around. What a disgrace the whole thing seems to be. Socialists ruin everything they touch!

I don’t think those medals are even pure silver. I believe they are silver plated just like some dime store trinket. I know the gold medals are fake.

As an ex-Canadian, I will get everyone here the mentality of hockey and Canada.

Canadians EXPECT to beat the Americans in hockey. All the time and anytime. Hands down. Just like Team USA basketball: we expect to kick everyone’s ass.

It’s the only thing that the country is damn good at. They are hurting for sure. I havent texted my relatives and family in BC but if you check ALL Canadian newspapers it sthe ONLY TOPIC in sports. Google them if you like :)

I always thought the sports that line up tourney style are rough for the silver medalists. At least the bronze folks win their last game to get a medal, losing to get a medal can’t be fun. Sure in the long run you finished second, which ain’t bad, but you lost and now you’ve got to stand there and get medals.

This was so tacky. Granted, all of the Canadian players looked like their grandma had just died, but this was just a low class move in a foreign country who is hosting you.
It is deadly serious with them though, I saw an interview with a Canadian player before the game who flat said, “We absolutely HATE them!”

Most Olympians would be thrilled to have a silver medal.

The Olympics were more fun when you didn’t have 29 year-old Olympians.

Jocelyne Larocque yanked the medal off her neck during the ceremony in Pyeongchang just seconds after an official gave it to her.

Three should be a penalty or punishment for display of such bad behavior and lack of character and poor sportsmanship.

Perhaps the bad actor or whole team should have to lose their award and downgraded to the next lower medal category, and the "winner" of the bronze can then get upgraded to the silver?
