GDT: Canada (5) vs. Czech Republic (3) • Quarterfinals • Jan. 2

[Killahpunk]

I'm hoping Canada brings their A game. I'm guessing 5-1 Canada.

 

[sanitysrequiem]

Hart or Ingram starting?

Ingram.

 

[czechcanadian]

95% sure it'll be a blowout. 5% that Czechs can keep it close. Not necessarily win.
Myers out. Pressure of being home.czech pp finally comes through. Highly doubt that though.

 

[jj cale]

I think it will be close, 4-2 or 4-3, just a hunch but I can see the Czechs getting on the board first and then keeping it close as Canada fights for and ekes out the win.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

I kinda figured Ingram would start. IMO Hart hasnt nearly been as good as im used to seeing. I love the guy on Everett but myself and many people feel Ingram has been the better goalie this year and last in the WHL. Obviously coaching staff with Canada feel the same way at this tourny too

Hoping to see them fast out of the gate and fast through the neutral zone tonight as a bounce back from the Americans.

 

[OilerPensfan97]

FYI, game is also going to be on TSN3. GO CANADA GO!

 

[Hemsky001]

F it... 5-4 Czechs

 

[Snippit]

I think this game will tell us how we play against the Swedes.

Get the cycle game going, play a high intensity game, and forecheck them to death.

4-1 Canada

 

[General Zodd]

Montreal's skyline so small compared to Toronto's

 

[scotian1]

Bell Centre looks empty.

 

[Hemsky001]

Skarek in the net. Well okay, I guess we already gave up on the SFs.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Bell Centre looks empty.

It isn't going to be good.

They've both been very underwhelming. Ingram has slightly better so he's getting the chance. Our goaltending needs to be a lot better if we make it to the semi's.

Canada wins 4-1.

Stroke, Jost, Dubois, Raddysh

Who cares about the score, let's count empty seats.

Winner should get a prize.

 

[OilerPensfan97]

Wow, so many empties.

 

[Hemsky001]

Canada wins 4-1.

Stroke, Jost, Dubois, Raddysh

Kase

Stroke?

 

[Fried Tree Sap]

I hope the Czechs can keep it interesting, but I don't think it will be all that close. 6-2 Canada.

 

[Captain Bowie]

Let's have a strong, clean outing here boys. Ingram please be perfect.

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

I hope everyone realizes that the semi final and final will be empty too even if Canada makes it.

Look at the prices.

Hand out free tickets or this is going to be a further laughing stock.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Not offside, puck got into the zone in front of him even though he had no clue where it was

 

[TheBeastCoast]

It is literally half empty. This is a clear message to Hockey Canada.
