There is tons of game left for the Czechs. Just keep your legs moving Team Canada and continue to press.

That one helps to cement it a bit more.
Excellent work and goal.
 
I agree it’s more about caring about the sport. But if the states start to care as much as we do, not much can be done

I've always thought the "if they cared as much as we do" line was a lame excuse. They do care, very much. On a sheer numbers basis alone the US has the most hockey fans of any country on earth.. by a long shot actually. Maybe its just me but I have never understood this doom and gloom philosophy about Canadian hockey, we're producing many many talented players, we won World Junior gold in 2015 in utterly dominating fashion, we went back to the final in 2017 only to lose in a shootout. Now we're 1 win away from going to back to back WJC gold medal games. Remind me why we're worried?

If this was any other country they'd be on cloud 9 saying how bright their future is, us Canadians try to find the negatives.
 
The Thomas line is honestly our weakest line, I don't think many people expected that coming into the tournament. Extremely impressed with how the 3rd and 4th lines have played throughout the tournament.

Now the Czechs are in real trouble as they can't go wide open chance for chance with Canada.

Especially not with only two lines and maybe 3 ok defensemen.

Match ups...

Not much fall off in skill, physicality and finish line to line...

The Competitive teams have 2 lines to match up...

Only the US and Sweden have 3 lines...

The rest of the Countries... no...
