OT: 2014 World championship

[OmniSens]

What a monster save by Huet

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

...so, is Canada going to play the rest of the game shorthanded or what? You'd think Canadian players would figure out international reffing by now.

 

[OgieO]

Late to the party... but that was fantastic work by SDC on that France goal.

It'd be nice to make some room for him, kid can play.

 

[starling]

DaBOSTA!!!

 

[starling]

Da Costa - Turris
2-0

 

[pepty]

That DaCosta guy-not too bad.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Da Costa would be the next Gretzky in a non-contact league. When the kid has room to move, he is lethal.

 

[mianjo]

Canada 2 Da Costa 2 in 3rd

10:42 Canada Jason Garrison (Nathan Mackinnon)
12:35 France Stephane Da Costa (Antoine Roussel)

 

[mianjo]

Going to OT

 

[starling]

Da Costa will win it in shootout. Or Turris.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

ugh....this Canadian team is fugly

 

[mianjo]

France wins in shootout

Both Da Costas and Turris miss in the shootout

 

[starling]

Dammit. So wanted to see Turris - Da Costa in 4th round.

 

[Scrub*]

Reimer

 

[Caeldan]

Crazy.
Poor Reimer...
Have we lost to France before at an IIHF event?

 

[Nairbo]

crazy.
Poor reimer...
Have we lost to france before at an iihf event?

1995

 

[OmniSens]

That was pretty brutal...

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Hilarious

 

[YNWA14]

Da Boss in the house. France gold medal on his back lol

 

[Deku]

Laughed out loud when I saw the final score.
Happy for SDC though!

 

[PoutineSp00nZ]

Canada lost to france? bahahahahahaha

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

DaCosta, our Spezza replacement.

 

[Sensinitis]

dabossstaa

 

[Larionov]

Losing to France - are you freaking kidding me?

I know you can't pin this loss entirely on Reimer, but boy he looked bad on France's second goal. Lunging, not patient, out of position - goalie coaches would have gone to town on his bad form there. He's a RFA, and the Leafs are unlikely to qualify him, making him a UFA. Maybe someone needs a low cost veteran backup, but the market will be pretty slim for him...

 

[StefanW]

Meh. Sometimes losing early to an inferior team can actually help the team collect its collective heads out of their ***** and realize that international games are tough.

I've never liked this tourney. All the best players are usually still playing in the NHL playoffs, so what is the point?
