GDT: 2018 WJC • Game 31 • Gold: SWE (1) - CAN (3) F

[Phil McKraken]

He hasnt done much except one rush and that last penalty was pretty stupid

You must not have paid attention to his defense then. He handles aggressive forechecking really well, alway makes a smart play so someone can leave the zone with possession. Stupid penalty yes, but it happens.

Look how fast the Canadian player is skating after the puck do you expect his speed to drop to zero after Dahlin sticks out his leg to trip him? No one is staying on their feet after that not even Crosby

Not saying the penalty was wrong. I'm saying he embellished it.

So much salt in this thread.

Impressive second by Canada, 1-1 both on the board and across the first and second period. Really enjoyable game thus far, Canada won't give this one up easy. Both teams really deserve the gold I guess but that's not how it works.

Go Sweden!

Reason, thank you.

This is gonna be a great third coming up, both teams are pretty even.

 

[Snuuzi]

Damn Sweden should have like 5 goals. Canadian goalie been so lucky on some of those

 

[Thlumman]

Luckily strength, passion and skill > diving and refs.

 

[canuckster19]

Ehm no he dident throw his hip out he turned around to pass the puck away whatever but whatever.


Wanna go down that path? ****ada is even worse when it comes to **** like that so just shut up okay?

An AIK fan being threatening, how original, easy to be a tough guy in a crowd with a hood on eh?

 

[PatrikBerglund]

Nylander and Pettersson needs to step up.

Is Nylander benched? Haven't seen him in forever.

EVERY SHOT SHOULD BE A GOAL. THAT DAMN GOALIE OF THEIRS!

The puck was long gone.

What game are you watching?

Just came in to chat about the game after the second and, man, it is HOSTILE in here.

Love it in here right now.

 

[EK47]

It wasn’t embellishment. He went flying through the air because he was skating fast and got tripped.

Seriously, in the WJC it seems like people whine about diving all the time.

No he flew through the air because him threw himself.

But still Sweden can't take focus away from the game for a couple of bad calls cmon guys FOCUS ON THE GAME!

 

[McFlyingV]

Rasmus Dahlin could be a number one defenseman in the NHL as soon as next season

He's damn good, but thats a bit of a stretch.

 

[NyQuil]

1-1 going into the third.

Great drama!

 

[sandysan]

Both U.S.A and Canada systematically dives. Classy!

Yeah like peterson acting like a narcoleptic. Shamefull indeed.

 

[PatrikBerglund]

Where can you see the stats from this game?

 

[maacoshark]

Both U.S.A and Canada systematically dives. Classy!

Talk about bias. Petterson has probably been the biggest diver in the tourney.

 

[Classicnamesup]

Just... Shut up! Go away *face gets red*

Honestly what do you expect. HF is petty. WE ARE BETTER THAN YOU CAUSE!

 

[Chimpradamus]

Ok, watching the replay from another angle, it was a penalty on Dahlin, I thought he was stationary, but he moved back a bit.

 

[Spilot23]

Just watched it again, even worse than I thought. Makar takes away the pass but that guy was already covered so he and another Canadian both took the same guy. The shooter was 100 percent Makar’s

I would blame Katchouk on that one. It wasn’t supposed to be an 2 on 1 or 3 on 1 if he didn’t attempt to hit that was just horrible and should’ve just followed his man like Mckenzie said Makar was surprised and was kinda lost on what Katchouk just did IMO

 

[trilobyte]

Rasmus Dahlin could be a number one defenseman in the NHL as soon as next season

There is little doubt he is that good. He looks like a man among boys the way he handles the puck and thinks it out.

 

[SenzZen]

Both U.S.A and Canada systematically dives. Classy!

Since when is diveing a thing in NA hockey?

Let me guess: Swedish announcers didn’t show Dahlin stick his left foot behind him, and instead cried about diving, right?

What do people expect. honestly though. It's like two GDT's in one and this happens literally every single year in international gold medal games. If you came here to talk about the ol stick and puck then you came to the wrong place.

 

[Slimmy]

dont leave him hanging guys!

This is already a classic! Haha!
