Speaking as a neutral here. How the fuck does this work? Are Canadians gluttons for this sort of humiliation? I'm imagining an alternate EPL where we let French teams in to win every year for some reason.

that doesn't work because france has a ton of good players.

instead imagine an alternate EPL where you invite teams from all of scandinavia, ireland and the rest of great britain, and the baltics; they load up on as many english players as they can get since they're largely superior to their domestic product but they can now afford them due to increased TV revenues; then they run their teams better than yours and win the title.

That sounds worse than my scenario 2bh. I'd just kill myself if my own homegrown heroes were being poached by foreign teams to win my own league.

Leafs btfo forever AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAJAJHAJAJAHAHAJAAHAHAHA

Honestly I could sit here and try to damage control this all night and tell you that all the players and coaches are Canadian and blah blah but I'm not going to. I really wish they had won and I'm not even from Toronto and I can promise you that every Canadian feels exactly that way.

The winning teams are majority Canadian. Can’t say EPL teams are majority English

Except only like 2 countries play ice hockey

There are dozens of excellent football nations

So this is the power of knock off brand Australia's education system.

More then 2

Isn't field hockey more popular than ice hockey? Why aren't Canadians and Americans good at that as well?

aussies are better athletes than them and rekt them at it so they quit unironically

If you let your enemies beat you, you win.

It's not more popular and it's a girls sport

Are you the retard Messi poster with the proxy?

Both wrong, you forgot to account for pajeets

>More popular
>Only taken seriously in the Benelux, and Pakistan.
>Infrequent World cups due to lack of interest
>played a bit in our schools as an alternative to fucking rounders because "the curriculum needs more shite fringe sports" and the other alternative (tiddlewinks) is not athletic enough for P.E.

Both right. Name a single field hockey league as big and profitable as the NHL

Ice Hockey was not derived from any other sport except Hurling.

>pajeets
they dont matter

>4 of the 6 original teams were american

its not their sport

The ones that would be good at field hockey play lacross

Yes, kiwis dont call soccer football.

It's the same for cricket, rugby and tennis, though. England hasn't wont a cricket world cup even.

Except Britain invented Ice Hockey, along with most relevant games. So, like, I dunno mate.

Poos don't count as people

>Britain invented Ice Hockey
sauce on this outrageous claim?

Name ONE thing that can't be traced back to British ingenuity.

Firstly, England invented hockey (or field hockey) and Underwater Hockey. That leaves Ice Hockey, which was played by British soldiers in Canada because the alternative wasn't possible.

So even if you use the 'Colonial Canada isn't British' excuse, you're beaten elsewhere. So, either way, Britain invented it, even using the location of the creation (Montreal) as the place, as it was played by British soldiers and Canada wasn't a Dominion until later on.

Wrong. Hurling is Irish not British and all other forms of hockey are derived from it.

Ok so we can add ice hockey to the list of things England have invented but never won

But brits wins the Champions League sometimes.

fuckin lol.

haha
