WJC Group A: Dec 28 GDT - Canada vs. Switzerland

[espo*]

I disagree when we're being outhit. Canada is finishing its checks. It may seem like the Swiss are outhitting us because we notice when they hit, it is not in their nature.

We're more likely to notice something we dont expect than something we do.

They are finshing their checks yes,they're just not getting to the spots as quick as they need to be to make those hits and plays effective.

Bob McKenzie just commented on the only goals Pogge has let in this tournament are ones that he hasn't been able to see. So...

Then it must be gospel.... The second goal shouldve been stopped by Pogge

 

[espo*]

After watching 10 minutes of this game, I have come to the unfortunate conclusion that U.S.A. is going to mess up Canada really bad in this tournament.

if they played like tonight yes,they would.But they won't Saturday.

 

[Aaron Vickers]

4-3.. this is disgusting. Pogge had no chance

Deflection on a shot from the point on a Swiss powerplay. I'm not certain if it hit a Swiss player in front of the net, or was redicrected once again by the Canadian defenseman.

Yep. Canada does not have enough talent this time around. Fly in Crosby for the USA game.

 

[El_Scoobo]

Canada needs the crowd to wake up. They could really use the 6th man right now.

You can just feel the lack of intensity all around right now. Canada can't sit back or else they'll find this game tied up before they know it.

 

[Aaron Vickers]

The only way Pogge should've stopped that is if each and every of the five players in front of him was Latendresse. Then Pogge would've been able to see it all the way because Latendresse is invisibile!

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

Uh, thanks for proving my point. Your just ragging on Pogge because he is a Leafs prospect.

That is real intelligent.

I wouldnt care whether he was a Habs prospect... he didnt look good on that last goal, stop looking at the game thru LEAF Coloured glasses

 

[Aaron Vickers]

Cogliano is on the ice and creating chances.

 

[Tritsche]

Awesome. SPRUNGER!

 

[El_Scoobo]

Cogliano is on the ice and creating chances.

Yep, good last shift. They need more of this.

 

[joe_shannon_1983*]

Those jerseys for Canada look ridiculous!

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

The only way Pogge should've stopped that is if each and every of the five players in front of him was Latendresse. Then Pogge would've been able to see it all the way because Latendresse is invisibile!

Oh no here come all the Leafs fans.....

 

[AlexCvm]

The only way Pogge should've stopped that is if each and every of the five players in front of him was Latendresse. Then Pogge would've been able to see it all the way because Latendresse is invisibile!

Why do you keep coming back with Latendresse? Because he's a habs fan? How many times do we have to tell you that we don't care about the fact that this or that player is from this or that team?

 

[Riggins]

And Pogge is Swiss cheese in the nets tonight, how fitting.

 

[Aaron Vickers]

Oh no here come all the Leafs fans.....

Why do you keep coming back with Latendresse? Because he's a habs fan? How many times do we have to tell you that we don't care about the fact that this or that player is from this or that team?

Cant say I'm a leafs fan, ever have be, or ever will be. Hard to be a leafs fan when all those flags fly proud in Calgary!

The Latendresse comment was in jeste of everyone commenting on how disappointed they've been in his play.

No YOU don't care.. he's already posted that he's ragging on him because he's a Leaf prospect.

 

[shakes]

SHOOT THE PUCK! geez...

 

[Aaron Vickers]

The Oilers must be salivating right now.

Cogliano will never shoot.

Schremp always shoots.

With Cogliano's passing and playmaking skills and Schremp's lethal shot, the Oilers powerplay could be among the tops in the league a few years down the road.

 

[yasdnil9]

Berra is just completely robbing Canada out there.

Player of the game for Switzerland, no doubt.

 

[Seachd]

Have you ever seen TSN (or RDS for that matter) say anything bad against Team Canada?

All the time.

 

[Aaron Vickers]

Key penalty kill for Canada coming up.

I'd be surprised if the Swiss didn't try to load up the front of the net given the difficulty Canada's had at letting Pogge see the puck in the tournament thus far.

Pouliot's penalty is the 18th of the game.

 

[Hockeycanada*]

Oh **** double minor.

 

[espo*]

This isn't good.P.P for the Swiss.And with the decisions our players have been making out there this period.........a tie is certainly not out of the realm of possibility.

 

[Aaron Vickers]

Double minor for Pouliot.

High sticking and elbowing.

Canada will have their work cut out from them.

For some reason, and I might bite my tongue on this, but I'm feeling shorty.

The Swiss are 2/6 on the PP.
