[canucksfan]

This Team Canada for far does not look good. They did not play well against Sweden and aren't playing well against Finland. They can't seem to generate offence.

 

[TheStranger]

Canada is terribad.

They're playing god awful.

 

[Go Wings]

Where is Teemu Pulkkinen?

 

[melinko]

Why isn't Canada putting anyone in front of the net?

It's just a blob of 4 Finnish players right in front of the goal.

+1. We look terrible. I hope that every other team is weak as well.

We do not need a wake up call. We already looked terrible against Sweden and early in this game. This team just isn't that good.

 

[Swiftmask]

Canada's PP is terrible.

And yes I know this is a meaningless game but if they can't get it working now, its going to be harder when the games start to count.

 

[Juzmo]

Where is Teemu Pulkkinen?

Sick. Nothing bad.

 

[Qurpiz]

Where is Teemu Pulkkinen?

Sick, out for this game. Should play in the rest of the tourney

 

[Jussi]

Where is Teemu Pulkkinen?

Ill. Surprised I didn't hear the commentators mentioning it.

 

[Bbird80]

Canada looks a bit slow out there. Let's hope it stays that way

 

[ChadS]

Where is Teemu Pulkkinen?

Sick. Nothing serious.

Canada doesn't seem to generate good scoring chances and Finland is playing really well. They know they can't dominate the puck so they defend well and try to strike on counter attacks. Shots on net, that's all you need.

TSN guys could talk a bit more about team Canada

 

[Nordic*]

So, Finland plays better against Canada than Sweden did?

 

[Qurpiz]

So, Finland plays better against Canada than Sweden did?

No no no, it's just Canada not playing up to their potential.

These games are always only about Canada.

 

[R S]

Missed the last half of the first period, what happened in that time, sounds like Canada isn't playing well.

Who scored for Finland.

 

[Latex*]

So, Finland plays better against Canada than Sweden did?

Probably not, but we are playing ok

 

[Minister of Offence]

Expect Canada to come out with Couturier's line to attempt to take back momentum right away. The Finns looked intimated in the early going but that goal changed the flow of the game.

 

[the word*]

So, Finland plays better against Canada than Sweden did?

Nope, Sweden kicked our butts big time in the first period last game. They should have won the game outright in the first.

I have zero faith in Visentin. Hes a mistake waiting to happen.

What were the shots in the first period?

 

[Jolli]

How's Armia doing?

 

[1989]

Reminds me of the Canadian Men's team during Olympics.. really lacklustre at times. Question is, can they learn to pick it up and really play with the rest of the teams?

 

[Latex*]

How's Armia doing?

Pretty invisible so far

 

[Minister of Offence]

How's Armia doing?

I've been looking for him.

 

[the word*]

How's Armia doing?

Had the puck on the rush a few times but didn't do anything with it. Not very impressive so far.

 

[Qurpiz]

How's Armia doing?

Don't think he's done anything except couple of turnovers.

 

[Hans Moleman]

Well Armia did draw a penalty.
