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

[mindfly]

Anyone know why Derrick Pouliot doesn't speak french, it's a french name is it not?

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

That Sweden-Russia game makes me even more excited for the Canada-Finland game!


GO CANADA GO!

He's from western Canada

 

[Hzzz]

What's up with that Johan glans looking mother******

You don't get it??

seriously

 

[Klown]

Hoping for a Finland win. 4-3 OT.

 

[Ryan34222]

I'd like our boys play for gold but losing and getting a chance to kick the Riskies in would be swell.

Finland with the big upset here. Good squad this year, and after an easy win over the Swiss I think Canada will have bought into their own hype by now.

I hope I'm wrong, being Canadian and everything, but gut instincts and all that.

 

[Binary Code]

It's the first time of the tournament I will be able to watch the whole game, Canada better win

 

[DrDangles]

Obviously cheering for Canada, but a Finland - Sweden final would be fun to watch as well.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

So far in the tournament, we have had one team taunt another after a win, one team slash another player in the face with a stick, one team start a fight...

I am sure we will because we always do, but I hope Canada takes the high road - win or lose.

 

[McCullogh]

The best thing about this game is the fact that Canada or Finland will lose out on the final game. Have fun, try to avoid injuries. And no fighting, that is bad. Right?

 

[BiggestLeafsFanEVER*]

Mood: happy and confident

 

[y2kcanucks]

After the moral final Canada and Finland will battle for silver; the loser will have to go home empty handed.

I think you misspelt Gold.

a lot of english-canadians have french names and french ancestors, but most of them don't really learn the language when they don't live in french neighborhood.
You can think of Patrick Marleau, or Matt DUschene that are in the same situation...

 

[JoeyBeans]

were ready to go.

 

[FF de Mars]

Can't wait for TT. What an amazing player. Lucky Chicago. Such vision and creativity. He's going to be a treat to watch.

 

[Dirty but Good]

My initial guess is if this game was played 10 times: Canada would win 6 and Finland would win 4 so this should be a good one.

 

[Confucius]

Hoping for a Finland win. 4-3 OT.

Don't really blame you if I was Swedish I'd be terrified to play Canada

5-2 canada

 

[Ryan34222]

GO CANUCKELHEADS GO!!!!

 

[Phil McKraken]

I think Canada will win this easier than most people expect.

 

[Loffer]

Teravainen is a slippery guy in every sense. I just can't get a proper read on him. He is a dribbler but not dangler, he's a shooter but not scorer; he's a passer but not playmaker; he is a good skater but not fast; he elusive but not explosive...go figure.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Went out to Tims to grab another coffee before this one to make sure I'm 100% alert. Can't wait for puck drop.
