Re: Straight from a Hollywood script

Unfortunately I missed the womens game as I thought it was a day later. The medal game was close but if I had to offer an analogy to their tournament play it was more akin to a semi with failed brakes barreling down a 10% grade. Get out of the way or else... I should clarify that Luongo won on his h...

Straight from a Hollywood script

Defeated by their arch rivals at home and forced to play another powerhouse to get into medal contention which they handily defeat. Play a nailbiter to get to the gold medal game.

Re: Hiya

Thanks for all of the greetings! I'm enjoying RT3 a lot so far. I'm working my way through the campaign and have played a scenario with the 1.06 patch. Good times. Although I wouldn't consider myself a train nut (some of you seem a fair bit nuttier about them than I :lol: ) I distinctly remember the...
