GDT: Gold Medal Game | USA vs Canada | 1/5 @ 9:30PM ET| TSN/NHLN

[Mikeshane]

I hate how Canada are so slow moving out of the zone. Did they even watch the Finland vs USA game? Finland would bolt out of the zone as soon as they got the puck and it led to a ton of problems for the Americans.

 

[Skolman]

I've liked Holloway this tournament and have said as much in the other threads, but he did not have the greatest first period.

Ah, just a coincidence I guess from one of the biggest Oiler trolls on HF.

 

[Kezaster]

no worries, canada can't loose hockey. It's their given birth right game. They are destined to win every game

 

[Pez68]

Baby shit? You serious?

Are you?

 

[JackSlater]

The score so far is deserved. Canada needs to get the puck out of the zone as efficiently as it has against the other teams.

 

[SRHRangers]

Caufield has a good first with the exception of that whiff.

That second line drove Canada nuts.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Isn’t he with Caufield though?

Boldy is being uplifted by his presence for sure

 

[Canadienna]

I expected more out of Byfield given how everyone went nuts about his size. Dude has been meh all tourny.

I agree, I haven't seen much of his game so maybe something's just not right, but he looks kinda weak for his size tbh. You see him lean on a smaller player and they kind of shrug it off.

 

[jj cale]

Would love to see the face off percentages in the first. Canada was getting cleaned out

brutalized in the dot.

 

[780il]

Outplayed that period. Have to be better..

 

[dm1371]

Well turns out Zegras was right

 

[TimeZone]

Take Quinn off the PP.

He and Byfield have been a disaster.

 

[SlafCaufield]

Caufield really showing his playmaking abilities that period , saw him moving the puck quite well

does it come with instructions on how to trash a hotel room

No gotta figure that out on your own. There was a note on how to get your wife in a 3 some with a friend though

 

[snipes]

Half of those guys were on the ice for 2+ minutes, they were gassed.

The D pair couldn’t get off the ice when the Newhook-Quinn line couldn’t get it out of the zone, some of the forwards changed but the D pairing got hemmed because of that lines inability again to get puck out. They were guilty of that last game too.

Quinn needs to be on the bench.

Ray Ferraro "he's so calm in net look at him rest his stick on the top of his goal pads" Yes Ray. His goal pads go up to his armpits! Just shut up moron.

 

[AKL]

Boldy is a grown ass man, I just wish he had some support on his line

I really like Beniers there, though his offense isn't quite up to snuff yet. But he does the little things well and his motor is 110% always. I just wish we could have seen Boldy and Zegras together at some point during this tournament. Either with Turcotte or Beniers, doesn't matter much to me, but that would have been fun.

 

[El Travo]

there were a few that could've been called

You can literally say that about every single game that has ever been played in hockey history.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

Well turns out Zegras was right

*so far

 

[Erik Alfredsson]

I agree, I haven't seen much of his game so maybe something's just not right, but he looks kinda weak for his size tbh. You see him lean on a smaller player and they kind of shrug it off.

He is one of the youngest players in the tournament, wouldn't be surprising if most of the guys playing against him are just flat out stronger. He's going to need to put on some muscle in order to use his frame to it's maximum effectiveness.
