I haven't seen Belarus in this tournament, but if I look at their scoring sheet I found out that line Antonenko-Zadelenov-Ugarov has been quite effective. Altought this line has quite bad +/- rating.

I expect alot more from Staal brothers and J Williams. Eric has made only 1 goals, Jordan has 0+0 and Williams only 1+1. These guys should be more often on the score sheet. Again I love to see Phaneuf on ice. He has such a quick wrister and great use of size.

Bad period from Canada. They took three slashing penalties, and Belarus scored only once. Belarus had 3/5 pp two times, but only one goal. I think Canada will be quite agressive at the 2nd period.

Doan with a shortie 1-1

Is somebody watching the game?! I'm at the office so I just have that freaky pop up ticker something on my computer.

Is that bad reffing or are the canadiens that undisciplined?!

I mean considering the D pairings of
Jackman Schultz
Commodore Brewer
Phaneuf Hamhuis


well does not sound that quick if you ask me .. the most considering the bigger surface.
I doubt they'll get deep into the tourney with that D

This must be the worst officiating of the tournament so far. As soon as you touch someone - penalty. Touch someone near the boards - boarding. The Slovak ref must think he's being paid by the number of calls he makes. Embarrassing.

Both.

Canada had some sloppy stick fouls, but the referee was also incompetent. He called absolutely everything on Canada, including a charge when the Canadian took exactly one stride before hitting his opponent. Belarus had four 5-on-3s in the game.

Any idea why Nash wasn't around for the 3rd?

There was an injury of some kind but I didn't see it. The announcers thought it wasn't serious but they seemed be guessing/wishing more than anything. Canada's done if he can't continue.

It'd be a tough loss, but they'd be FAR from done.
