Farabee, meanwhile, told reporters Saturday he\u2019s been teammates with a few of the U.S. Olympians along the way – the Hughes brothers, goaltender Jake Oettinger and defenceman Zach Werenski to name a few – and he\u2019ll be cheering them on, along the rest of the team in Stars and Stripes, come Sunday morning.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s friendly banter in the room and stuff like that, but at the end of the day, you want your country to win,\u201d Farabee said. \u201cIt’s a big deal.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously Canada got us at the Four Nations, so, you know, we’re looking to get a little revenge here.\u201d<\/p>\n
But as friendly as the banter has been inside the Flames dressing room, both Frost and Farabee acknowledged one European player in particular has been doing his best to stir the pot, and stoke that rivalry on.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were watching the last game, you know, everyone’s watching closely and and I think it was mostly Canadian guys and they were wanting them to win,\u201d Frost recalled with a grin. \u201cAnd then, it was just Sharky (Yegor Sharangovich) in there, so I don’t know how to explain that.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou’re gonna have to ask him if he can explain it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSharky’s been stirring the pot because he’s a neutral right now,\u201d Farabee added about his Belarusian teammate. \u201cIt’s been some fun banter, and we have guys from all over, so it’s cool just to see everyone’s country playing against each other.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Farabee, meanwhile, told reporters Saturday he\u2019s been teammates with a few of the U.S. Olympians along the way…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":490743,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194293],"tags":[49,2798,48],"class_list":["post-490742","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-calgary","tag-ca","tag-calgary","tag-canada"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490742","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=490742"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490742\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/490743"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=490742"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=490742"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=490742"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
