GDT: Group B • Dec. 31 • Canada 5, Sweden 6 (SO)

Canada's D needs to be better.

Too much bad communication. That and Olsen is brutal.

 

[oilerfanatic]

we cannot handle the swedish speed

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I hate how Roy is down on those long shots before they are even off the guy's stick. Plus, he ducks. There's no ducking in goaltending!

 

[quat]

Sweden is getting away with a ton of interference, but boy are they playing some fast physical hockey. Looks like two Canadian teams. ha ha. But really, lot's of skill on Sweden.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

It seriously looks like Roy ducks on every single shot.

That's because he does.

Wait weren't Schenn and Kadri drafted together? Why is Kadri not eligible for this?

Kadri was born in 1990, schenn is 1991.

Kadri's a 90. This is for 91's and younger.

he sucks and i doubt he has any future with the oilers

 

[Forgot About Drai]

Klingberg is good

 

[tempest2i]

Anton Lander's moustache is the swedish secret weapon today.

 

[TMLeafer]

Every shot is an adventure.â„¢

Sounds like a new marketing campaign.

What defense from Lindburg! Thought that was going to be a solid chance for Canada.

 

[Phil McKraken]

You mean Klingberg.

 

[Nakawick]

Outside of Ellis we are lacking puck moving D man on this team.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Remember Olivier Roy, boys and girls, because when you hear from him in the future, it'll be at the Spengler Cup playing for a team out of Italy or something. He's not elite.

You can't be serious..

I've noticed the ducking too, the only time ducking is allowed in goaltending is if it's road hockey and the goalie doesn't have a mask. Even then, the guy better be hammering it if you are ducking.

Are we watching the same game?

 

[ThankYouBasedGod]

Canada looking a lot better now.

 

[quat]

Woops, I mean Klingberg breaking up that play... heh ... I think.

 

[Nakawick]

Does Roy get the start next game regardless of outcome? Is he the best goalie we have?

 

[tempest2i]

He'll be backing up Dubs for the Edmonton Oilers. You'll see him after poor Dubs is shelled for 6 because the defence took the night off.

 

[Brozak]

Every save by Roy is a surprise.

 

[quat]

Are we watching the same game?

Unfortunately, I've only just started paying attention as I'm in the middle of a move ... and in three or four shifts there was some clear interference.

Guess the rest of the game has been otherwise. lol. Thanks for all posters pointing this out.

 

[tez]

Great effort by Roy on that one. Say what you will about him but he makes the saves that matter the most.
