Love it in here right now.

It's hot and stuffy. If you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen, am I right?

 

[nucks88]

He’s been slow and uninvolved. Personally I’m dissapointed with his game today.

I guess we are seeing different things then..

 

[eviohh26]

Where can you see the stats from this game?

Tsn.

 

[Blender]

But I mean he’s probably playing top line minutes and he’s only a little over a ppg as a 19 year old in the OHL. I see he has good energy and drive to his game but I’m sorry he should be dominating. I mean look at another one your prospects studenic who is playing often second and 3rd line mins in Hamilton and is right around ppg.

He missed about 6 weeks with a torn meniscus in his knee and had only played 11 games. You don't think an injury like that and missing the start of the year hasn't had an impact on him?

i would not care i f sweden lost to canada...but us and canada is like soccer players...If I was in NA I would feel just shame...****ing disuting how you treat the sport...sure all to win, but you are clowns...canada have lost it respect in the last 15-20 years...before that you was the best...and now...it's sad.

This is pretty funny.

 

[Slimmy]

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

No, Renberg saw it how it was. Dahlin has to reign it in a little. That was too easy to call.

 

[Freudian]

Precious how Leafs fans dislike Makar. Can't have anything to do with him outplaying Liljegren this tournament, can it?

 

[maacoshark]

on the replay Makar pulled out the red carpet for the Swedish player.

He certainly did.

 

[eviohh26]

It's hot and stuffy. If you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen, am I right?

I honestly can't handle the kitchen...

 

[General Zodd]

Man I am drooling over Cale Makar. God damn you Colorado – you got a great prospect!!

 

[SenzZen]

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

100% eh? What was Hart’s job on the play?

 

[Chimpradamus]

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

Hostile? No one is threating anyone or calling anyone something, no one is yelling, it's just the usual bickering during a gold medal game.

 

[Acetylene]

Clear penalties in both situations. Can we discuss the game instead of refereeing?

 

[PatrikBerglund]

Shots 25-18 despite all the pk:s fr Sweden.

 

[johnny_rudeboy]

Completely disinterested in discussing any embellishment. Both situations were clear penalties, and both were utterly unnecessary.

Hear hear

Dahlin has been great but that was a stupid penalty he gave Canada.

 

[Sher-Wood]

Must say not too worried on Sweden taking/getting* penalties, we are lethal in shorthanded scoring department

 

[eviohh26]

Honest question. How many beers deep are you guys? Im at #5!!!!!!

 

[icebluuu]

There's WAY too much embellishment, and too much diving as well. There needs to be some education for the refs, harsher consequences, or maybe more to take care of it. I haven't seen a single embellishment call yet, but some obvious embellishment, and some diving.

 

[Daximus]

100% eh? What was Hart’s job on the play?

Not get hung out to dry on the PP?

 

[PatrikBerglund]

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

They did and they all agreed it was a clear penalty.

 

[SenzZen]

No, Renberg saw it how it was. Dahlin has to reign it in a little. That was too easy to call.

Thanks for the clarification!

I thought it was a dive initially, too- but the replay showed it clear as day.

Now get Clague off the PP!

 

[NyQuil]

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

Don’t worry - he’s still the best undrafted player on the planet.

 

[sandysan]

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

Slow your roll.

Its 1-1. Going into the 3rd. Would be nice to see the Whistle go away and let them duke it out.

 

[Slimmy]

People that complain on Dahlin not being good enough: What do you expect? He is a possession beast, his passes are on point, and he is great in defense. Are people expecting him to be a Norris trophy caliber defender already?

They don't know what to look for.
