GDT: Group B • April 29 • Belarus 1, Canada 4

[TMLeafer]

Thanks for the comments about Scalzo, already has two assists. I hope he's gonna play some games more for Canada.

I hope so too. He's been very steady. But with Gargnani and Colaiacovo coming in, it might be unlikely.

And come on Stewart.

 

[Fel 96]

Clutterbuck to the box.

 

[NyQuil]

I wonder if Phaneuf looks like that vs. Grabovski during Leaf practices.

 

[eli J]

I don't think Stewart really cared about scoring there, there's no point embarrassing a small country team like Belarus by running up the score further.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

5-3?

Wtf?

 

[mcphllp]

anyone think grabo should get consideration for one of the 3 stars of the game?

he's been great

 

[TMLeafer]

Did he even get the stick up?

 

[Nalens Oga]

^ Yes.

Chris Stewart has a good shot but he's at his best when he crashes the net. And no one is crashing the net outside of rebounds or on the PP tbh.

EDIT: TSN colour guy: "I was up all night practising by myself"

 

[justPlay]

Its over.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Win.

 

[NyQuil]

5 on 3 fail.

In Europe this song or sound doesn't mean the same as in Canada or North America in general.

Exactly. Most don't sing "good bye" but the name of their teams or country instead.

 

[htpwn]

Mezin.

Let in 4 goals = win player of the game for your team.

grabo got robbed, oh well no big deal

 

[Le Golie]

Tavares is a beauty. What a game.

 

[Crispy Crust]

wtf was Belarus doing on that 5 on 3? Didn't they notice their was like only 15 seconds left in the latter part?

 

[eli J]

I hope Tavares can make the Sochi 2014 team. Him and Subban on our powerplays

 

[NyQuil]

Crosby + Tavares + Stamkos?

 

[FlareKnight]

Pretty weird at the end with that 5 on 3, but got the win. Team really got it going in the third and Reimer made the saves needed to keep them in it during the first 2 periods.

 

[Ekmonton]

I just missed the game. How did Eberle look?

I just missed the game. How did Eberle look?

Two goals cashing in close to the net and a couple nice backchecks. Typical Eberle in that you don't notice him for a while and then he does something good, if that makes sense, haha.

 

[Winnipeg Jets]

I just missed the game. How did Eberle look?

Eberle looked very good from what I saw in the first two periods. I believe he ended up with two goals? Lots of chances and he looked very dangerous out there.

 

[HSF]

I think we will see more from the big guys like Nash, Spezza, Phaneuf and Stewart onces the games get tighter.

Especially a guy like Stewart who is more effective in tighers games where you need more garbage type goals.

was a decent first game and some chemistry is being formed.

Also what is with Phaneuf pivoting the wrong way a few times in the game is he nursing an injury or something?

Yep, his leg got cut and it went pretty deep, his footspeed has suffered a lot this season. Hopefully he doesn't get completely flatfooted during the tournament(like that grabovski dangle!)

 

[Kevin27NYI]

will tsn.ca have highlights?
