Man, that 3rd forward line could easily be a top line. Interested to see how this team does! No Getzlaf today...just resting him, I suppose?

He has family commitments.

 

[poetryinmotion]

So no Murray? When are they expecting to take a look at him if not in an exhibition?

He took regular shifts when subban went out in the 1st exhibition. He will play again today.

Purcell - Nugent-Hopkins - Eberle;
Skinner - Tavares - Sharp;
Kane - O'Reilly - Ladd;
Mitchell

Interesting lines to say the least.

Burrows on the top line is odd, even if that's where he normally plays in the NHL. I thought he was a lock for the 4th line, given what he brings to the table (that the others don't).

I imagine you'll see him roving around the lineup before long. Sutter may just want to see how he fits in with certain players, but he's a guy you can essentially plug in anywhere and he'll perform his role to a T.

5 Severin Blindenbacher is the most Swiss name ever.

 

[CarlWinslow]

Any chance TSN is streaming this?

 

[LilySmoov]

Is this thing even televised?

 

[duul]

Can people stop doubting RNH's talent now? He's still running the #1 PP unit on team Canada.

 

[Turrican*]

Ridiculous 3rd line.
Should be first.

 

[ElTailR]

Is this thing even televised?

In Switzerland : SF2/RTS2/RSI2, for Canada i don't know.

Does anyone have the lineup for Switzerland?
Stephan will play and Sprunger won't but for the others?

 

[Jerkini]

I don't see this on TSN's lineup so i'll assume this won't be televised in Canada?

 

[Suxnet]

The exhibition games won't be on TSN.

This one is working for me. What language are the commentators speaking?

 

[Villert]

Neither of the streams are working for me.

Deutsch/German I think.

Tavares 1-0 Canada

 

[Suxnet]

Tavares scores to make it 1-0 for Canada.

 

[Alberta tough]

Tavares baby.

 

[Auguste McEscoffier]

Skinner received a pass from Sharp at the blue line, took it straight for the Swiss net, and Taveres cleaned up the rebound.

Swiss german. As far as i know there is one form of german in northern germany and a little different german in southern germany, austria and switzerland. Im not an expert on the german language....

 

[Alberta tough]

Deutsch/German I think.

That is what I was thinking as well.

 

[Jesus Christ Horburn]

Is it just me or is Canada trying to go all Globetrotters on the powerplay?
