GDT: Group B • Dec. 26 • Finland 1, Canada 8

[smi]

Just thought I'd revisit this prediction to see how it's looking...

Hmm. Not so good.

Smug.

 

[Willy Lindstrom]

I actually miss Pierre McGuire.

No you don't. Think about what you just said!

 

[Fred Murtz]

Dougie Hamilton goal

 

[KulleKing*]

One thing is clear, Canada won't be playing in finals this year.

 

[Fulcrum]

Watching the Russian broadcast.. extremely laid back compared to TSN- like watching a different game.

 

[Password]

It's not over yet, remember they got Visentin in net

 

[thomast]

Finn's should try to give Barkov more time, I think he's done good things when he has been out there.

I agree. Bad coaching from team Finland too much ice time for 2nd and 4th and 3rd line should play more.

 

[Lucky Luke]

Connolly's been pretty quiet out there.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I actually miss Pierre McGuire.

Me too.

We lost one of our best players in that game. And even if we hadn't, Canada should be a better team - at least individually. Them having 20 times more registered juniors playing hockey than Sweden gives the anser why.

You should get more kids involved in the game then. It's lots of fun.

 

[Panopticon]

Give it a rest
Stop being so butt hurt
Teach the kid to keep his head up

Why not teach the other kid not to intentionally injure other players? Yeah, I'm calling it intentional when it's a blind side hit. It's always intentional. Or Pejorative Sluredly stupid, but that's even worse.

 

[RKC]

Give it a rest
Stop being so butt hurt
Teach the kid to keep his head up

Is this guy serious?

 

[Canucks LB]

Ferarro has literally talked this entire game.

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

Hope Finland shows something in the third...their only goal was a softy by our real backup

 

[cenas*]

As a Finnish fan there isn't much to be glad about, but as a Rangers fan I find it hilarious Strome is this invisible.. in a kids game against Finland.

Wonder how he'll do against USA or Sweden

 

[Budddy]

I actually miss Pierre McGuire.

it just seems they are trying to out do each other by all their name dropping and crap..

just do the PBB...jesus....

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

What could DSP's injury be... Looked Like such a innocent play...fingers crossed nothing serious

 

[GrizzLeaf]

I just figured out what was missing in the first intermission.

Coaches Corner!!!!

 

[Saku11]

finland has zero talent and the succes we have had in international games is because of grit and heart.Haven't seen either in this game.Helminen hs to dosomethinh to get the Finns going

 

[Latex*]

Hope Finland shows something in the third...their only goal was a softy by our real backup

No....

 

[AvsFan7*]

Feel really bad for Mi Granlund, he has more talent then any player on the Canadian roster, but besides him there is very little on the Fins roster, Pulkkinen is not impressive at all. Fins need to put Aitokallio in net for the 3rd even though the game is lost.

I gotta say, really didnt excpect Canada to be this good, buf Finland just looks lost and scared. Canada is definitly not the favorites in this trny, and you cant say that they are if they've already lost to a team even if it was just a Pretourny game.

Sweden is the team to beat. But this will be a huge confidence booster for Canada so theyre definitly in it.

Me too, I prefer it. Makes the whole thing feel less like a one big Canadian circle jerk.

 

[master4071]

Any closer info about DSP?

 

[matCH penalty]

One thing is clear, Canada won't be playing in finals this year.

You misspelled Finland, champ.

 

[Forgot About Drai]

Normally I wouldn't. But when I made a comment about it, I got dragged through a little mud by some of my friends from Finland. There's a backstory is what I am saying.

We've all been on the losing side of these....hope no one has hurt feelings. It's all in fun. What comes around always goes around.

Ahaha understood. Just know how rattling it is to be on the otherside aha

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

No you don't. Think about what you just said!

McGuire > Ferraro, so very, very much. I hate so much what Ferraro chooses to be.
