WJC Group B: Dec 29 GDT - Ukraine vs. Canada (0-10)

[Rabid Ranger]

It's just a feeling but I think we will witness the biggest upset ever

4-1 ukraine wins over canada

That's going to be tough to do when the score is already 3-0 Canada. :p

 

[Vincent Vega]

Gotta respect Stewart for not celebrating after his goal.

I'm surprised its only 3-0 18 minutes in the 1st period. Ukraine is playing much better then I thought they would be.

 

[L3DZ3P]

Omg think the canadian tkae this game as an all-star game.Man they should keep the game simple,they alaway try to make the perfect play.

 

[Rob]

Canada really trying to play a finesse game. Hopefully this is the last game in which they try it.

If Canada doesn't stop floating & thinking they too good to play hard for 60mins even against teams like Ukraine, it could be a rude wake-up call when they play the czechs.

hmm, they played already well against Finnland.

If they thinking they too good to play hard for 60mins even against teams like Ukraine,... the coaching staff should more younger players involve like Crosby, cause the young guns have to prove and show their skills.

Tambellini.

4-0.

who assisted=?

 

[Enoch]

we can't they put the puck in the net???
How many PP need they....

I'm not impressed with their PP at all....They aren't getting quality chances and are holding the puck entirely to long.

Klein just set up Tambellini's first goal quite nicely with a great defensive play.

 

[Draft Guru]

Crosby!!

5-0.

 

[Draft Guru]

Nigel Dawes.

6-0.

3 on 2, wrist shot from the slot.

This goalie can't save nothing.

Quite funny though..Ukraine had a golden opportunity ten seconds prior to Dawe's goal..loose puck in the slot in front of Canada's goalie Josh Harding and a Ukraine player when to shoot it and his stick broke

Definitely a missed opportunity to get a goal.

 

[Belgian Fan]

The floodgates are opening it seemes.....

Brent from Talbot.

7-0.

Whole period is being played in Ukraine zone.

 

[THE NEXT ONE #87]

2 more Goals from him and he has tied with Lindros at the age of 16!

The posts critical of Canadian play are too funny - how badly would you like them to run the score up?

This game is a joke and means nothing.

 

[CharlieGirl]

I like that there are 7 different scorers for the 8 goals. Hopefully this game will give everyone a boost going into the New Year's Eve game against the Czechs.

 

[habsfansam]

8-0

Dawes from Gorges

 

[Draft Guru]

9-0 Canada.

Dan Paille on the PP.

End of the 2nd period.

Why? This is the WJC and the kids have to set good work ethics for bigger games along the road. If they aren't performing as well as they should, then we have every right to criticize them. Just because you will settle for sub-par efforts does not mean that I and many others have to. . I'm not alone in my criticisms anyways, listen to the announcers while watching the game, and you will see that the Canadiens were not performing up to their expectations either.
