Good to humiliate them on their own ice.

So, the US beat the US. Sounds a lot like what’s been happening in the country here for years.

On the Chinese team 18 out of 25 players on the roster were born, raised or both in North America.
WTH?

The margin was 8-0. One guy scored five goals.

I don't know that it is fair to call them 'sellouts'.
They weren't skilled enough to play on the American team, so they played on a team that would have them. That's different from a Gold Medal caliber athlete who abstained from representing the Country that she ostensibly was from, to play for a Country that she perceived she gain more benefits (financial, or otherwise). That person (or persons) I'd label as a 'sellout'. Not these hockey players.

NOT on the excerpt only list. Why not post SOME of the article instead of only just the link again? Most of the article is just reposting of “tweets.” Sheesh!

Revenge Served Cold: USA Hockey Unleashes Fury on Sellouts, Crushes Chinese Team by Massive Margin

By Grant Atkinson
February 10, 2022 at 12:53pm
A Chinese men’s hockey team led mostly by North American-born players suffered a dominating 8-0 loss at the hands of Team USA on Feb. 10.

According to NBC Sports, Harvard University forward Sean Farrell scored the first Olympic hat trick for Team USA since Phil Kessel did so in 2014.

His first goal was arguably the most impressive of the three as he beat China’s goalie, Jeremy Smith, to the top left corner toward the end of the second period.

In addition to his three goals, Farrell notched two assists to bring his point total to five for the game. It was the second-highest ever for an American in a single Olympics game, NBC reported.

Boston University goalie Drew Commesso, the youngest starting goalie ever for the United States in the Olympics, showed no signs of nerves, stopping 29 shots en route to the shutout.

Coming into the game, much was made of the Chinese men’s hockey roster. According to NBC Sports, 18 out of 25 players on the roster were born, raised or both in North America.

The International Ice Hockey Federation allows players to represent a country in international play if they have lived there for at least two years and played for the country’s national team.

<< [Jake] Chelios, the son of NHL Hall of Famer Chris Chelios, agreed to change his name to “Jieke Kailiaosi” to aid Chinese fans >>

I hope Traitor Jake got his head rammed into the boards today. Needs some sense knocked into him.

Actually this will be the competition of these genocide Olympics most remembered by the Chinese. The message was clear.

It’s been “Moneyball” and “Moneypuck” for quite some time. They’re just more open about it now that it’s clear their present and future is relegated to online gambling.

China recruited NHL players four years ago in order to win in the Olympics. Sadly, China’s NHL players got crushed by Americans 8-0. Personally, I would not go play for China for four years or even four minutes. Garbage third world country where Bibles are rejected, girl babies are dumbed into trash cans and innocent people are turned into slaves. China is ice cold in relation to life.

Jeremy Smith is Chinese??

Why even bother to have national teams? The whole thing is getting to be a pathetic charade.

I’m gladder than ever that I haven’t watched a second of it.
