Go Russia! I want to see Canadian kids cry tonight.

And i want to see Russian kids cry.

As I said in the last thread, typical Hockey Canada underthinking it once again and taking too many skilled players instead of actually building a TEAM with role players

They've done that in years past and it's hasnt worked out any better.

 

[Bures Elbow]

Canada wins id they ride the top three lines and top defense pairing.

Loses if Gauthier and bowey keep playing every second shift like after it was 5-1.

Fucale choke job

 

[777]

Not tonight
The only game that matters now

I specifically meant best dman tonight. Nurse has been on the ice for only one goal against (shorthanded). It wasn't his man that scored and he still managed to lay a huge hit.

Nurse's size and speed has been a huge asset in this game, calling him out is blind homerism against the Oilers.

 

[CanadianODST]

No one should be defending Fucale at this point.

Who could have made the team over these guys. Best team we've had in years just terrible goaltending. Jarry>Fucale.

 

[IDuck]

strap in...

 

[Kamiccolo]

Gauthier was being played because he is the best defensive forward and they were trying to hold a 4 goal lead. Not his fault his team mates decide to do their best goon impressions and take terrible penalties, and the bust in net can't make a save.

 

[Rodzilla]

To the guy saying we should take grinders on this team and give them roles.

Feels like I watched grinders the whole 2nd with Gauthier Ritchie

 

[YandlesMother]

Any available moderately to decent quality streams? Mine is DEAD. I'm dying here.

Go apply for a coaching job then. As if you know what it takes.

The game isn't over yet. I thought Canada has been awesome up until this point. It's gut check time now. We'll see what they're made of.

Sarcasm?

Gauthier's line??? And they are playing too much over McDavid. Hicketts and Bowey are a bigger problem.

Have you been tested for psychopathy? Because only psychopaths would be happy watching young kids cry

 

[Classicnamesup]

lol...should have been a penalty shot and Canadians are whining about refs...right.

Your team was put on life support by the refs and brought them back in it.

 

[ICanMotteBelieveIt]

Canada need to use the best players. Even if they're defending. It sure beats pretending Gauthier is the new Bergeron.


Also the D needs to stop with the pinches. Changing G's could be smart.... Fucale's confidence might be shot right now and a goalie change might wake the rest of the team up!

 

[Bgav]

Canada Russia games are too much

 

[ProspectsSTC]

Still can't figure out why fucale was ever playing instead of Comrie

You do realize that no one's disagreeing with you, right? No need to say the same thing every 5 minutes.

 

[Martian]

some people still can't understand that IIHF reffing is different than NHL

 

[Lady Scarlet]

my issue is not that the canadians are getting called for penalties but that the russians arent

Amen and thank you, it is my issue as well.

 

[lawrence]

Fucale is garbage btw.

 

[Pi]

Can the refs please put that whistle away in the third? I think Russia has gotten enough PP's to come back now.

I want 18 mins of ES. If there isn't another penalty called, we will win this game, no doubt.

 

[member 147413]

Gauthier is so bad. He's been on for 3 of Russia's goals yet they still ****ing play him.

He's on the PK lmao

 

[Davebo*]

Go Canada! I want to send some russians home - hungry.
