This Canada team looks extremely average this year

I wouldn’t draw any conclusions from today’s game. Conditions were horrible

 

[Angry Little Elf]

I’m sure comtois over Suzuki, Tippett, glass and Lind was worth it

 

[Jesus Take the Wheel]

Weren't there American fans complaining about Slovakia's celebration yesterday? Kind of funny considering their team celebrated in similar manner today.

Anyways congrats to the Americans winning another shootout game against Canada on shitty ice surface, enjoy Sweden in the semi finals if you make it there

US did beat Canada in the Olympics back in 2010.

Not in the game that mattered

 

[Thebesthockey]

Hart is the only reason Canada didn't lose in regulation.

sorry he sucked big time last yr and sucked again this year
too much politics and much better goalies available
hockey canada sucks

 

[Mobiandi]

Yes let' judge the team built on skating over a game where players can't skate.

They looked pretty meh against Finland too.

 

[These Are The Days]

Why all the bitterness?

I was told Canadians are painfully nice.

It's the truth. Nicest people on God's green earth til they lose a hockey game.

 

[Bixby Snyder]

Canada hearing the Star Spangled Banner played a lot at the end of WJC games.

 

[JT Kreider]

If we meet in the gold medal game and it goes to a shootout does Canada pull Hart?

 

[FlyTimmo]

Canada's defense is atrocious

 

[SanDogBrewin]

LOL what did I even just watch.

Canada lost for the 4th time in a row to the US.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

US did beat Canada in the Olympics back in 2010.

Not when it mattered

 

[Bounces R Way]

Pretty entertaining for a slog game like that. Don't get all the bitching about it being outdoors. Gimmicky sure but if a pro league like the NHL can do it why not the WJs?

 

[ponder]

Shootouts are always a joke, but the Americans did deserve the win, they were the better team today. Hope we get a chance to play them again in an actual rink in the medal round.

Like one person mentioned it, and a bunch of people told him that they deserved to celebrate.

Why are you starting shit over a non-issue?

 

[BruinsBtn]

4 hours 35 mins. Good for beer sales. Waaaaaaay too long. 10 mins to fix the ice with 2:30 left

 

[LemonSauceD]

Comtois and Clague lost us this game.

 

[francis246]

I'd hope the coach is smart enough to look at how a player does in shootouts

he has to put together a roster of players who do not play together regularly. The last thing on his mind is who has a good shoot out percentage good God. Also what coach is playing to get to a shoot out? None.

 

[IDuck]

Who cares.

We're winning the group anyways. This was a write-off game and we got the job done.

Cya in the finals USA

completely agree....as much fun as i find it to beat CAN, this game means NOTHING, and i REALLY REALLY hope these 2 teams get another shot at each other.

Good thing USA seniors are pretty bad

 

[Thebesthockey]

HART perrenial LOSER

 

[le_sean]

US did beat Canada in the Olympics back in 2010.

Really? Your example is the non medal game in 2010? How did that go afterwards?

 

[Machinehead]

That was fun. Good show, Canada!

 

[northeastern]

Fun game to watch but the ice conditions certainly were a factor. Anyway good win and comeback for the US

 

[JackSlater]

Good effort by USA to come back. I don't take much from the game given how odd the situation is with snow and everything, but I must say that the Canadian players and coaches should be embarrassed by their effort when up two goals. Only looked to clear the puck into the snow and wait for the next attack. After this game I would feel pretty confident for Canada if they played USA again in circumstances where speed would actually be a factor, but they really need to consider their effort. Ducharme also needs to figure out which defencemen are his best, because he doesn't know at the moment.

 

[North Cole]

didn't know a shootout loss defines their whole tournament... Canada has looked MILES better than the US this year. I don't think they have anything to worry about. I think the only thing they need to decide is if Point is better than Hart.

Canada ducked hard this game, but idk what he's talking about. We need teams to shit the bed, but a team that lost to Slovakia doesn't? K
