GDT: Jan. 4 • Semifinal • Canada vs. Finland • II

[Scottkmlps]

Dumba has been absolutely brutal this period.

 

[Bjorn Le]

Everyone has been turning over the puck and making bad plays, but at the end of the day Drouin will be blamed more than any other forward Meanwhile, Mantha is quiet without his linemate.

Quiet? No he's been awful. Sutter double shifted him and it paid off with him looking like the player he was criticized for before making the team.

 

[McClelland]

Never mind the final, its a sure loss to Sweden for any team making it!

 

[bleedblack93]

This group of kids is a damn shame on the country.

No, they most certainly are not. You, maybe.

 

[SidGenoMario]

Darryl Sutter just doesn't get it. He lucked into the best WJC team of all time in 2005 ever, and now with slightly inferior players he just doesn't get it. We just need to score here. Put all your effort into scoring 2 goals against Finland in the next 6 minutes, and don't allow any goals. Then we'lll be fine IMO.

 

[gretskidoo]

Might be the worst game of hockey I've ever sern by Canadian team.

What's going on?

 

[ed bruin]

going into this i was a fan of Dumba, I'm leaving this not a fan anymore

 

[AimForTopCheddar]

Minnesota is going to rue the day they drafted Dumba.

 

[Habsawce]

This is what happens when you put kids used to simple North-South hockey against a team that has players playing against adults with various tactics ever week. In short, Canada are getting outcoached right now.

European countries have had kids playing against adults for 20 years and Canada won gold the majority of the time. You're over thinking the fact that this Canadian team is just awful.

 

[Polo*]

wasnt the media trying to pump dumba's tires too? It just goes to show how they try to pass on their own opinion as fact.

Clearly we can all see the guy is an awful player and should never ever come close to playing in the NHL at any point of his career.

Also, this is the worst canadian team ever iced imo. Terrible...beyond awful

 

[BiggestLeafsFanEVER*]

Players like Domi can actually hold onto a puck and score.

So can the players we have. They're just not executing. Domi not being here isn't the problem.

 

[SnackTime]

plenty of time left

Pretty much this.

 

[Pgust]

Still drooling over that save by the Canadian keeper.

 

[Bjorn Le]

What successful NHL player enters the zone down the middle between three defenders on a consistent basis?

 

[KuleminFan41]

What happened to Canada? They suck.

Finland happened

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Nananana nananana Hey hey hey, goodbye!

Haha are you taunting the team that already beat you out?

 

[Prntscrn]

This can't be Canada, is it?

 

[Powdered Toast Man]

Dumba flubs a pass of no consequence, gets about 15 posts of face palm.

 

[DrDangles]

I don't mind seeing my team lose, but it's hard to get behind a team that doesn't seem to give a ****. If this is how we're going to play on the world stage we don't deserve a medal at all.

 

[Canucks LB]

2 SHOTS in the period.

Shocker with 6 grinders on this team

 

[Salming]

Come on Canada! Show some heart!

 

[trilobyte]

Hockey is the ultimate team game.
They were totally out-teamed today.

Finland has been fun to watch too

 

[sjci]

This group of kids is a damn shame on the country.

Whoa. I think you and everyone else of this mind set needs to tone it down. They're kids and it's just a game

 

[PBandJ]

Congrats Finland.

Ignore the excuse makers. Your boys outplayed ours and deserve the win. Good luck in the Gold Medal Final guys.
