2005 IIHF World U18 Championship

Not far off according to the rumour. Apparently he was speaking in French to a teammate on the bench. Apparently the linesman thought he was speaking to him. Is he French, Swiss or Belgian? I doubt he was from the US, as few American linesmen speak Freedom.

If thats the case than WTF lol

Poor Letang. Oh well at least he is back now.

 

[LaLaLaprise]

McGuire is always horrible. Turn the sound off, then you can actually enjoy the games.

He tells it like it is. Would you rather Harry Neal waving his blue and white pompom's?

 

[Macman]

3-1 Canada. Hobson.

What a play by Clune!!!!!!!!!!!! 3-1

He tells it like it is. Would you rather Harry Neal waving his blue and white pompom's?

No he does not. He's an outright homer.

 

[LaLaLaprise]

No he does not. He's an outright homer.

All he does is rag on the refs, both ways.

He gives the other team credit when they do something. What was he supposed to say during the Denmark game? Its hard to find something good to say about a team losing 15-1.

 

[Macman]

4-1. Clutterbuck. What a goal.

 

[chicpea*]

I know the knock on Latendresse's skating, but he looks so strong on his skates out there (and against boys, mind you). His line is just fantastic on the forecheck too - every time I see them.

 

[Macman]

Canada is dominating physically now. If they score again, the rout will be on.

 

[chicpea*]

Yikes, gotta feel for the Russian trainer there.

 

[Macman]

4-2. Russian pp late in the second. Canada another penalty after goal.

 

[Macman]

4-2 after two. The refereeing is disgraceful.

 

[LaLaLaprise]

This one isnt over yet. You know the Russians will get at least 3 more PP chances in the 3rd. Need to play more diciplined.

 

[Riddarn]

4-2 after two. The refereeing is disgraceful.

Who's it this time? Another finn?

That was an unfortunate ending to an otherwise stellar period. Canada had a chance to get some fluid going with the hiatus of penalties (until the end) and it paid dividends. Not really too impressed with Price's "flash" but whatever, he's young. Our pp needs work as well - we seem to be lacking a QB like Zubov, and the Russian D really seem to play much better on the PK than they have otherwise been even strength. And where was Setoguchi that period? Totally invisible.

This is the first game of the tourney I have watched and wow the reffing is horrible. But the Canadians are awesome

 

[Macman]

Who's it this time? Another finn?

I'm not sure. A Czech maybe? Canada is shorthanded yet again.

 

[fredez]

The reffing has been atrocious all tournament long...It's crazy

 

[Macman]

What a joke. Did you see that Zubov dive? Canada shorthanded again.

 

[Oil_slick9416*]

The reffing has been atrocious all tournament long...It's crazy

speaking of bad reffing, see that nice dive by Zubov????

 

[chicpea*]

Un-******-real. Zubov with his best half-somersault is rewarded with the pp.

 

[Oil_slick9416*]

Un-******-real. Zubov with his best half-somersault is rewarded with the pp.

at least the russian PP has been weak in this game.

 

[chicpea*]

Great work on the PK!!

 

[Macman]

The sad thing is the refs are going to decide this tournament.

 

[Oil_slick9416*]

russians scored
