GDT: CAN vs. GBR May 11, 2024

[jonas2244]

Team GB sent France down once, I wouldn't be surprisded if they would be able to challenge Austria, norway and Denmark. Especially with their strong goalkeeping, where they might have the edge especially over Austria, who is mediocre there.

 

[Summer Rose]

Hagel makes it 2-1 for Canada.

 

[Orr Fourever]

Yay Hagel...

Floodgates are now officially open... jk

Nice work by Hagel down low and in front of the net.

Canada I think is a bit like the USA in that regard at these tournaments as they come over and adjust. They'll warm up eventually. USA didn't look cohesive at all yesterday.

Yes both should improve. There's naturally going to be a bit of an adjustment for players less accustomed to larger ice, plus they haven't been over in Europe as long in preparation as some teams have been.

I think both are more invested in the party element of the tournament than some of the other teams are but more power to them.

 

[Orr Fourever]

Canucks are hemmed in.

 

[JackSlater]

Oleksiak and Parayko are a lot down low on the penalty kill, even when they're just standing there.

 

[Summer Rose]

What a shift by the Brits! No goal to show for it though.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

fun game so far...feels like nearly every shot on both ends of the ice could go in

 

[Summer Rose]

Is it just me or does Hofer look a little slow to react to... well, everything?

 

[cave troll]

Bedard !!!

 

[Orr Fourever]

The other Conor...

 

[JackSlater]

Bedard sneaking in for a goal. Went for the top corner snip anyway.

 

[Sweetnut]

Wait a minute here....doesn't all those people skating around on that ice have the same king? And some of them even speak french, but still have the same king? How is this even possible? I call shenanigans!

 

[HabSgt]

Canada up by 2 but full credit to the Brits who are putting up a hell of a fight.

Canada: "Who do these guys think they are?"

Great Britain:

 

[Summer Rose]

Ping!

 

[cave troll]

Bedard again

 

[Summer Rose]

Another goal for Bedard.

 

[JackSlater]

Really nice pass by Paul to Bedard for the easy one.

 

[Troya]

Bedard again. 2 goals 3 sog.

 

[HabSgt]

Le Bedard is a team of his own.

 

[Summer Rose]

Le Bedard is a team of his own.

Truly a great Canadian talent. He has an exciting career ahead of him!
