PGT: 9/27 - Canada 3 Europe 1 F - Canada leads series 1-0

[Novak Djokovic]

Unlike majority, I thought it was a very competitive match and much better than most of the tournament. Europe outplayed Canada in the second period, and while Canada scored two goals in the first, there were great chances at both ends. Third period was a typical Canada period. They had the puck for most of the time.

Overall though, of course, it doesn't have even close to an Olympics feel like the NHL intended.

How was this game? I missed it. The NHL pre-season is more interesting to me, just wondering if I'm missing out, although I doubt it. Was there any reason they had the tournament overlap with the NHL season? Seems...kinda stupid lol.

Canada played a very sloppy game, numerous unforced turnovers as well as many defenceman being caught up ice without support. Yet they still managed to win.

Perry and O'Reilly came in and out performed him and the team has looked better with him in the pressbox then on the ice.

Makes sense, Perry and ROR also really stepped up during the IIHF WC this year.

Why isn't this page called "World Cup of Hockey" anymore? Took me some time to find it.

Should probably keep it as the World Cup page for now since the tournament is still ongoing. Even though the person who changed it likely has no interest in tonight's game, a lot of other people do.
