It's pretty safe to say, that Canada is gonna destroy Switzerland in this one.
I'm hoping the goal difference isn't any higher than 5 goals...

 

[Noeller]

In the process of trying to score some tix to this. Would be a fun one to check out...

I want Canada to win big (I am Canadian) but not too big (it is no fun to watch).

 

[TheNextOneX]

Those game are meaningless.

I expect a blowout just like last year.

They kept the American game relatively close. Good for them.

 

[truefan8993]

You can say that if you consider losing 7-3 close. With that being said, I hope the Swiss give Canada a good game like they did in the 1st period of last year's meeting.

 

[Jesus Christ Horburn]

Canada-Switzerland is always tight.

3-2 CAN.

 

[GM17*]

Huberdeau - Scheifele - Smith-Pelly
Schwartz - F Hamilton - Stone
Howden - Bournival - Gallagher
Pearson - Jenner - Connolly
Strome

Youbeardoe expected to play, Howden is a bit more questionable

Right, all the while being heavily outshot. Not to mention at least one of those goals was off a Gibson gaffe in front.

 

[Zamuz]

5-1 for Canada

 

[TheStranger]

11-1

 

[Hart_House_Ca]

Swiss plays Canada hard but can't keep up the pace for 60 minutes.

Canada wins a tight one 5-3.

Swiss score 2 on the power play and 1 off a deflection.

 

[swisdan]

11-1

Why not 111-1?

 

[sickest flow bro]

I'm saying 5-0.

 

[Ward Cornell]

The Swiss ace up their sleeve the last cpl years was their goalie (Bunz?) standing on his head for a cpl games, I suspect the Swiss will keep the game close with greatest difference being 3 goals.
IMHO...it's good test for Canada and allows them to battle through a trap team.

I think you mean Conz, seems like he was their keeper forever

TSN.ca will be streaming this live tonight according to their web page:

[arsmaster*]

TSN has a different proposed lineup than the OP.

Also said Huberdeau and Howden are expected to play, barring setbacks during game day skate.

 

[JackSlater]

Why not 111-1?

Good question Mr. Edwards. Anyway, as a Canadian fan I am hoping for goaltending that does not scare me going into the tournament and that Huberdeau looks good. I predict something like 7-1 for Canada tonight.

 

[Smif]

Why, always the same night as a Leaf game...honestly.

 

[Falling Snow]

Is the TSN.ca stream available in Switzerland ?
