GDT: 9/24 - Canada vs. Russia - Pt. II

[cave troll]

What a brutal domination.

What line can you really focus on if you're playing Canada? You can shut down 3 but get burnt even by the 4th. Amazing. This national team since 2010 has been incredible. Not even the 1984-91 group can compare as they had more hiccups in the Canada Cups and the Gold medal team of 2002 had a lot of troubles and older players. But man, looking ahead to when some of those Team NA kids can make Team Canada (hopefully at an Olympics too) it could be a few decades of brilliance on the international stage. Crosby will always be there if he wants to be. I could see at 37yo Sid as a 3rd line shutdown centre in a 2024 WC. And by then, McDavid should be this country's offensive catalyst internationally.

Well, we know McDavid is on his way.

Then you'll have 2 Crosbys out there.

At least Kucherov has looked good…. PLEASE SIGN WITH TAMPA ALREADY!! its killing me

Ovechkin has been completely invisible when Sid has been the best player for Canada.

Ovechkin? What about Malkin? Not generation much at all.

 

[Confucius]

God has not helped Russia.

Looks to me like the refs just aren't calling things. Both sides.

I dont understand why people are shocked Ovechkin has been a ghost. He's always a ghost against Canada, has been since 2005

 

[Fantomas]

C'mon Russia. Make this close. Let's have some fun.

Business as usual for Ovechkin in international tournaments.

Better than Ovechkin.
