GDT: Group B • Dec. 30 • Canada 2, United States 1 • Part II

[The Zetterberg Era]

I'm impressed with how much hate Jones have developed in Canadian fans. I like him even more already.

Best part is if one of their teams winds up drafting him you will never hear a negative thing about him from half the fans pretending he is garbage right now. He will be a saint that can do no wrong.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

How Ryan Murphy made this team is beyond me..wow. Just does not belong on a national team at the moment.

Being the coach's favourite player helps.

 

[timekeep]

Wasn't a big fan off trouba, he has changed my mind a lot though....

Me too, best D man I've seen in this tournament so far

 

[Riellyfan04]

Game should be tied, this is the goaltending we need to win... Can he keep it up ? I think so.

game should be 4-0 lol... Murphy is an idiot shooting on 3 on 1 and than Gibsons brilliant save...USA is lucky they are only down 2-0

 

[Hurt]

Okay, poster made a mistake. Get over it. As Brayden Schenn said, #relax

 

[The Head Crusher]

Trobua is so calm with the puck. Very good pick for the Wild.

Your probably thinking Matt Dumba

 

[Stats01]

About that brutal penalty, I think it's the "even-up" mentality that the refs have.

Subban was good. I still think that Canada was sloppy with the puck; it needs improvement. What's with so many players falling in this tournament?

I'm really impressed with Reilly... Give this man more ice-time (especially on the PP), and Murphy on the bench.

Exactly!!! If Rielly had a better partner he would look a lot better, ******* honestly I can't understand these pairings at all.

 

[Mason10]

Murphy is such a pain

 

[Xokkeu]

Maybe Housley will actually change some of the lines and pairings finally. A guy can dream right?

I saw Grimaldi and Galchenyuk on a line together for a bit. Tough to see on the internet stream.

 

[Chairman Mallard]

sharkohol, I believe all US games are offered on nhl.com for US residents. Can anyone confirm?

Yes, thats true

 

[DatsyukOwns]

*stare*

Whoops. I thought he was drafted by the wild. I will stop talking now.

 

[Account Terminated]

okay, that is ****ing funny

you"re?

What a numskull.

 

[Exit Dose]

He was the reason for the 2nd goal...

Other than that not much to report.

Not good so far.

Not good for the US and people whose only exposure to him will come from this tournament.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

This feels like a fabricated "the world is against us" thing. i think the kid is great. TSN has been talking him up. I don't see anyone hating on him, really.

 

[Machinehead]

Trouba, Dumba, same thing.

 

[PerpetualTankYear]

Canada has some cute little neck guards.

 

[Worraps]

Trobua is so calm with the puck. Very good pick for the Wild.

You're thinking of Dumba...He's more of a long term project.

 

[Stats01]

Murphy sucks!! honestly I'm really getting sick of his crap

Please be the Leafs

Doubtful, USA seems to give players a role and keep them there forever(see Zucker point per game goal scorer in NCAA and now AHL, 3rd line checker on USA).

 

[Canucks LB]

that wrist shot is not even fair for this tourney

 

[bp spec]

Someone asked how tall Gaudreau is. He's 5'9".

 

[Novak Djokovic]

Gibson was very good. Breakaway stop on Drouin and glove save on Schieflie were amazing. If US comes back in this game, those saves will be looked upon as game savers for sure.

 

[Jabba11]

I saw Grimaldi and Galchenyuk on a line together for a bit. Tough to see on the internet stream.

You saw right.

I agree that Murphy is an absolute thrash to watch...it disgusts me. Should have let Pouliot make the team. Chemistry with Wotherspoon and Rattie at least..not a relationship with the head coach.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

Wasn't a big fan off trouba, he has changed my mind a lot though....

I couldn't have said it better myself. Other than Gibson, the MVP for the Americans thus far.
