WJC: Day One GDT!

[Gsus]

Canada - Finland coming up, should be a great one

Finland has strong 4 lines

 

[Cenzhin]

No separate GDT for each game? It'll get messy real quick.

Total collapse... hopefully a wake up call.

coaching staffs job to get these guys on the right track and playing as a team not just looking to kulich to save them, that mentality has to end and just get back to all four lines playing hard, they are a better team then this, you could see it in the first period.

Keep it simple and get in a groove.

We have 6 goals and Dvorsky has been invisible. That will need to change…

I'm sure it will, he had a slow start to last year's U18 as well.

 

[SoundAndFury]

Even if statistical analysis pointed otherwise, Slovakia might avoid the relegation round this year

Maybe that's the idea?

Worried about the goaltending for Canada in that one.

Canada - Finland 6 - 2
Canada's strong offense will destroy Finland's weak defence.

Beautiful church architecture in Gothenburg. Cool city.

Rymon 1 on 4! Not bad.

[Chainshot]

TSN at the "lets talk about other teams" part of a one-sided game.

[Luolis]

Every single pass to him has been telegraphed so far in advance that it's been easy to just key in on him.

That's what I'm wondering. Most of his PP looks here were too high and they were clearly deferring to him for his shot which lead to easier clears (and the shorty against was after a bad feed to him that went the other way).

 

[Czechboy]

Congrats Slovakia... clearly better. Played a clean game. Zero complaints. Outclassed the living shit out of us.

 

[jj cale]

You can tell the Button man is feeling pretty good about himself, when he starts with the......." you watch player X play and you get an understanding of his feel for the game" then you know he's all puffed up and downright bullish on his pre tourney calls.

Very impressed by Slovakia but definitely think Czechia dropped the ball after that shortie. They just imploded. Fun game, hope that injured player is okay.

Let's go Canada! Love playing Finland, this is going to rock!!!!

Let's go Finland! Good luck and merry Christmas to Canadians!

Merry Christmas!
