GDT: Gold Medal Game • Jan. 5 • 8:00 PM ET • 02:00 CET • IV (Mod warning in OP)

[CH25]

Sure would be nice to have Ekblad at this point

 

[Del Preston]

TSN as a station may cease to exist if Canada loses this game.

 

[Kharkov]

C'mon Canada has this one in the bag. Go Canada Go.

 

[LeHab]

Canada will prevail.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

I so thought this game was over at 5-1.

We thought it was over at 3-0 in 2011 going into the 3rd.

 

[His Beardliness*]

And i want to see Russian kids cry.

But there's none there. And they're all sleeping.

 

[Hank Plank]

Coach will pull Fucale after Russia scores the go ahead goal you watch.

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

Fucale is garbage btw.

Just isn't a big game goaltender, cracks under pressure. I've never seen anyone as nervous looking in net as him.

 

[CaptainBenn]

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

Cant admit that Russia is great
Now whos game is it ?

 

[DeYarmond Edison]

I thought officiating didn't matter and good teams don't use that as an excuse

 

[tmlms13]

lol Montreal's mayor calling him. If they can't sell out the NYE game vs USA then they shouldn't host it.

Lemme guess the only game that will sell out in 2017 will be the GMG and people will only show up if Canada is in it. Round Robin attendance will be horrible in 2017.

 

[RickyR]

Fucale has an .890 SAV in the Q. Not sure why you're all surprised he sucks.

 

[AngelDuck]

I'll tell you all where Canada will lose this game:

Not playing Theodore, Nurse, and Morrissey huge minutes.

Hicketts and Bowey are just out there too much

 

[Jeffrey]

Blame more like poor play from Canada!
Fucale is not playing great true but the team in front of him are clearly not helping him... Cough**Bowey**Cough and stupid penalties!!

 

[King Woodballs]

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

Yeah
I can post what I want
Feel free to ignore it

 

[Bgav]

C'mon boys.

 

[aufheben]

Me too but I have v cash riding on the Canada win.

High stakes.

 

[irunthepeg]

They took a bunch of bottom 6 grinders last year and did worse than this year.

That post you quoted made me laugh out loud. I think they are being sarcastic and mocking the posts we always see in the years when we didn't take 4 scoring lines just to be a troll.

 

[PG Canuck]

I'm gonna have a heartattack.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

Madison Bowey is horrible........

He is.

Watch, there will be little or no scoring in the 3rd.

 

[Habsawce]

42.1 Charging - A minor or major penalty shall be imposed on a player who skates or jumps into, or charges an opponent in any manner.

I know this is iihf rules but leaving your feet is a penalty even in the nhl. A lot of layers get away with it if they leave their feet after contact.

I love vague and subjective rules. That explanation is hilariously undefined.

 

[Rob]

Anyone else hope to see Comrie come out to start the third?

 

[frankthetank91]

Is it strange that I am not scared at all? Pretty sure we will pot a couple more against these hosers.

 

[Redwingsfan]

This is a great game

 

[Sam Spade]

So next goal wins or last shot wins?
