[JackSlater]

4-2 Canada.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Feeling a solid 5-1 win here for Canada.

Feeling a solid 5-1 win here for Canada.

Probably about that. Switzerland traditionally plays a trap game, low scoring. And then hopes for a few timely goals. But you can't really trap the Canadians out of a game.

 

[Fred McCarthy]

5-0 Canadians....

 

[BigBadBoar]

The Swiss lost too much energy yesterday, while Denmark brought no obstacle into Canada's way. I expect Canadian win by 6 - 1 or so.

 

[780il]

Ahh 6pm game tn

Let's wrap it up quick so I can go watch the Oil at 8!

 

[duga]

Depending on how the Swiss come out of the blocks and the early dynamics in general, this game's result ranges from a frustrating and hard-fought win to a complete blow-out...

Either way Canada will win.

6-1 Canada

 

[goonybird]

Devils should let Hischier play

 

[Jabs102501]

Devils should let Hischier play

lose for Huhges I guess

 

[czechcanadian]

I will be at the oil game too. First ever oilers game.

 

[Putt Pirate]

Over/Under on 7 goals for Canada?

 

[1909]

Tight game. 3-2 Canada.

 

[Statsy]

Tight game. 3-2 Canada.

Zero chance Canada is being held to 3 after scoring 14 last night... unless their arms are tired from all that scoring.

 

[Metroid]

Hoping for another double digits win. Wana hear more crying about running up the score

 

[BigBadBoar]

I would be very surprised if Canada scores 10 or more tonight. The Swiss have much better team than Denmark. Yesterday they played a very organized and disciplined game, supported by solid goaltending.

 

[TheBigThree]

7 - 2 Canada

 

[Pensionsraddare]

Am i wrong thinking the swiss often tends to play even with Canada? My feeling says they use to frustrate the canadians by making things harder then it actually should be for Canada. With that said i can't see them frustrate the canadians today. 5-1.

 

[kudla]

Forget it. Switzerland is not easy

 

[Perfect_Drug]

1-0

You’re not wrong, but this is an age restricted tournament which means it’s always going to be a challenge for the smaller hockey nations. The Swiss program will see many peaks and valleys depending on the relative strength of the age groups in action this year, whereas Canada will be much more consistent. The Swiss losing Hischier this year was a crippling blow.

 

[Newfoundland]

10-0 canada

Yeah the Swiss always seem to be able to frustrate Canada. I feel like they might considering Canada has had it so easy so far and the Swiss will be nothing the same.

 

[BowDownToVasilevskiy]

Might have to run two screens tonight as the Lightning play at the same time as Canada

 

[Hagstrom]

I can see Switzerland giving them some trouble, especially to start the game if Canada doesn't take it seriously and plays the same way they played to finish the Denmark game. Switzerland often seems to play quite a tight game too, so I don't expect a really highscoring game
