O´Reilly did not join drunken teammates

O´Reilly did not join drunken teammatesTeam Canada falls in OT against Team USA on the World Championship. Some of the players went on the disco and drunk alcohol.

It was extraordinary day and night for Canadian players. Firstly, they lost a game against the biggest rival. USA could win in the overtime and was close to finish it in the regulation. Secondly, Anaheim´s Corey Perry, Ryan Getzlaf (on the picture with a fan) and Dallas´ Jamie Benn visited local disco in Finland. And got drunk.

“I am the captain of Anaheim Ducks,” shouted absolutely drunken Getzlaf on the people and added: “If I would be mad, I fight everybody here. You would get out within three minutes. You definitely do not want it!” said. The whole incident happened around 3 a.m. of the local time when Getzlaf was speaking to the former Miss Finland.

According to witnesses, Perry and Getzlaf were determined to fight with everybody. Benn were also dancing, as you could see on this video. Ryan O´Reilly of course did not join his teammates. He is the Av. And it means something, does not matter where you are.
