Go Canada!

 

[anofsti]

Heia Norge,

Let Volden try to steal this one and let Haugen rest... And try to stell a point please.

 

[Taak19]

You know you're in trouble when Holos is your a D on your #1 pairing.

 

[playasRus]

Good to see Skinner didn't get another concussion from the giant Cowen hit.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Playing Canada, no Holtet, no Tollefsen. Auto loss. Just try to avoid a blowout and take it out on Sweden tomorrow.

 

[Everlasting]

We belive in you Norway. Kick some Canadian ass!

 

[SwissLeaf]

Go Canada!

Duchene will destroy them!

 

[Kezaster]

Canada won't win this in regulation.

 

[McspOiler]

Play hall more then 8 minutes and we will have a better shot... 2nd in scoring in the western conference not good enough for ruff

 

[Ilovemymum]

You know you're in trouble when Holos is your a D on your #1 pairing.

Canada is in trouble you mean. Muaha. He's actually 100 % better than the rest, now that Tollefsen is out. Just sad he can't play more than 60 minutes a game.
Expecting big things from Norway this game. No pressure, Volden on a good day could prove a proper headache. A curiousity maybe, but I think, if Norway beats Canada and clinch a play off spot at the expence of the former, and make it to the semis, Norway will pass Canada on the world ranking. And that with our mocked top a # 1 pairing D making more than the rest of our Ds combined. So better step it up Canada

 

[Systemfel]

Ruff has seperated the Staals again per Marc Crawford.

 

[tony d]

Canada usually does well vs. Norway. That said the way the team has played thus far in the tournament nothing is for sure.

 

[Fin9*]

6-4 Norway

 

[Wolfy*]

I don't see too many physical players in the Canadian lineup. The Norwegians are very physical, that's their weapon, wear them down through hard hitting play. Then they might have a chance to beat the more skilled team.

Well our captian and best D is suspended + one of our best forwards. U should win this game without problem.

Zuke wont play on the national team anymore, because of the ****ing federation **** **** ****

Im so pissed. Everything goes straight to hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TollefsenFan]

Holtet and Tollefsen are suspended, so we only got Røymark, Forsberg, Bonsa and Martinsen left.

 

[Alpine]

If Canada doesn't come out p..sed off and plays hard right from the start becaiuse of the missed chances and figure skating v the Swiss and Danes. Then this team is soft and plays with no heart. Give'er or enjoy the European vacation

 

[QuietContrarian]

Come on Canada! I really need some sporting succes! Not so mad about the Swiss loss anymore after they destroyed the Czechs! But this is a must win.. Norway are good at the physical play, but they have lost 2 of their best players to suspensions!

Duchene, Skinner and Stamkos are going to pull allot of penalties with their nifty moves!

GO CANADA GO !

 

[Aasheim]

I think Norway got a great chance - even without two players. I expect big things from Patrick Thoresen tonight.

And whoever on the Team Norway who have a dream of playing in NHL should step up. I guess some agents/scouts are watching this game - some just to see how the NHLers do, so there should be a lot of motivation.

Also winning without our captain should be a motivation. We can do this.

LET'S GO NORWAY!

At least Thoresen played for my hometown Wildcats...........
Can't say I'll wish him much luck in this game though

Hehe. He did good last year, so I don't see any reason why he won't this year.

 

[Juzmo]

Good luck Norway. Hoping you guys can manage to steal at least a point.

Canada 5-1
