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

[landy92mack29]

great back check by Dubois to force the offside

 

[yvrtojfk]

So empty

 

[General Zodd]

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

Winner should get a prize.

Ottawa would have been a better choice

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

Good.

Hockey Canada is a bunch of buffoons.

This isn't the Olympics, you can't price it as such.

 

[ObscureAlien]

damn attendance is sad

 

[PG Canuck]

Damn, it's super empty in that above picture.

 

[General Zodd]

Good.

Hockey Canada is a bunch of buffoons.

This isn't the Olympics, you can't price it as such.

Montreal's a joke! Pathetic!

 

[TheBeastCoast]

So safe to say Montreal won't be getting Hockey Canada events anytime soon

 

[Pure Laine]

It's like Canada is playing an away game.

 

[Riggins]

What were the ticket prices?

 

[scotian1]

No flow yet to the Canadian game.

 

[donghabs98]

This tournment should be for NON-NHL markets anyway. That way the tournment will be the focus point of the city. Halifax and Saskatoon were fantastic

Clearly not a hockey town. Habs town, yes but not hockey town

 

[Alerion]

We look just as slow and disjointed as we did against the Americans. Fortunate to not be on the PK right now.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I get that there is a lot of politics behind why people haven't turned out but I feel bad for the players. They have been looking forward to this for a long time being on home ice and they get this turn out. Has to be disappointing.

 

[joe89]

I know it's just QF, but it's also very quiet. Takes away some of the intimidation factor for sure.

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

Montreal's a joke! Pathetic!

It's cheaper to fly to Europe and watch the whole tournament then sit beside the glass at this game.

This is kid's playing Hockey.

That's why i wished they would hold that stupid nhl competition in Montreal, the world cash grab would have been just as empty!

 

[donghabs98]

So safe to say Montreal won't be getting Hockey Canada events anytime soon

It can be argued Montreal/Toronto should have only gotten the tournment once and more twice

 

[that is unfortunate]

So we've gone from Necash to Nechash, they'll get it right at some point

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Kinda sloppy so far.

And yeah, HC needs to drop prices. You're not getting the big bucks when the tourney is in Canada every second year.

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

What were the ticket prices?

Price for 12.

 

[Alerion]

Mute button is getting worn out from all the Nike commercials.

 

[General Zodd]

It's like Canada is playing an away game.

Aren't they in Quebec?

 

[Pure Laine]

Clearly not a hockey town. Habs town, yes but not hockey town

Quebec in general is just not a good host for Canadian national teams. I remember a World Cup Qualifier (soccer) in Montreal where Canada hosted Honduras. Stadium was 98% Honduran.

 

[Patera]

I just hate that Nike commercial.
