GDT: CAN vs USA Part II

[John Agar]

Stamkos hasn't played a lot of hockey for a while...

Rusty... not a curse... not the yips...

I envy TB, he is just another shark cruising with other sharks in Tampa...

 

[TLeafsFan]

Stamkos can't buy one.

And I hope that becomes a trend every time he visits the ACC now.

 

[Semantics]

Do you think its Torts last international tournament?

Yes. If I were Jarmo I would just fire him now as well.

 

[PWJunior]

Stamkos can't buy one.

He's bringing down that line, they could be even scarier if he could do anything.

 

[kingsholygrail]

In a game where we looked dangerous for all of what, 5 minutes?

If you watched the game you would know USA had almost no good scoring chances.

Team USA has never ever been a powerhouse...ever... in international hockey. Losing 1-0 is an incredible game for the US.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Lol if usa blames not having the u23's it shows how clueless they are

 

[Steazy Doo]

Between the 2015 SCF and the World Cup, Stamkos being snake-bitten on the biggest stages is becoming a bit of a pattern.

No worse then Toews at both of those particular events. (so far)

 

[Little Psycho]

The problem is team USA hasn't had anyone who can score over the past few season on a consistant basis. Kane has 1 goal in three tourneys now I believe.

Kane can't shine in USA hockey

his last not including the prelims was Vancouver's semis I believe.

 

[ijuka]

Oh, Stamkos with 4 takeaways, #2 on team is shared 1 takeaway. I guess I haven't been paying attention to the right things.

Only ~1 week less than anyone whose team didn't make the playoffs so no that's really no excuse

 

[BruinsBtn]

He's bringing down that line, they could be even scarier if he could do anything.

He's the weakest player on the cycle on the team.

 

[Del Preston]

That Swedish fan was standing on the arm rests.

 

[MentalPowerHouse]

Except for McDavid I think Canada's guys are a step under the Americans at that age group.

Ekblad?

Can't blame the u23 team when you refuse to take the best players available.

 

[John Agar]

I disagree...

You guys have a great future...

We have 2 of your future, Kyle Connor and Jack Rosolovic for the Jets...

More coming, much more... then we will suffer...

 

[syc]

stamkos seems to have lost a step.

It's all that money weighing him down.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Canada too clinical

the games are BORING apart from team NA

 

[Pablo El Perro]

No worse then Toews at both of those particular events. (so far)

Fortunately or unfortunately, in order to compete, the US team needs more from Kane than the Canadians need from Toews.

 

[I am not exposed]

Exactly.

As if they would have chosen Jonny Hockey for this squad. I mean, look who they left off who isn't under 23!

 

[John Agar]

Only ~1 week less than anyone whose team didn't make the playoffs so no that's really no excuse

Injuries take time... not an excuse, a reality.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

I disagree...

You guys have a great future...

We have 2 of your future, Kyle Connor and Jack Rosolovic for the Jets...

More coming, much more... then we will suffer...

and we have Connor McDavid

 

[John Agar]

and we have Connor McDavid

Well they have Kane...

 

[I am not exposed]

Yeah, I was hoping USA would do something.

Hoping North America beats team Canada.

 

[canuckster19]

Team USA has never ever been a powerhouse...ever... in international hockey. Losing 1-0 is an incredible game for the US.

By powerhouse though do you mean an extended period of dominance?
