GDT: Canada vs Denmark

[expy]

Embarrassing.

 

[Brunkmeister]

Omg Canada will end up at fourth. I don’t want to win the group anymore.

 

[Bounces R Way]

 

[PanniniClaus]

There is simply no chemistry at all here. None

 

[HersheyBob27]

rofl Michigan attempt

Canada can’t score the regular way we just have too young kent johnson trying to score michigan goals

 

[expy]

There is simply no chemistry at all here. None

Or skill.

If they get fourth there is no reason to overly fear them either

 

[expy]

It's been tough to cheer for the men's Canadian teams over the past few years, not only due to no NHLers at Olympics, but also these C to D-tier international rosters.

 

[Elvs]

Or skill.

The Canadian team has way more skill than Denmark. The issue here is mainly effort, or lack thereof. Canada is getting outworked.

 

[expy]

Finally a decent shot on net.

5-3 Canada-Germany +2 Canada (-1 Canada)
3-1 Denmark-Canada +0 Canada
0-1 Denmark-Germany 0+1 -1 Denmark

So Canada +0, Denmark -1, Germany -1

So Switzerland, Canada, Germany, Denmark

--

So I believe Canada can lose this game by 2 goals and still be 2nd in the group if they beat France in regulation and Switzerland beat Germany on regulation.

And now its 3-2

Riiight, the annual Canadian "Team suck!" comment, before winning the championship.

Bad teams can make finals, see the Habs last year.

 

[Phil McKraken]

Wow I'm stupid. I thought "Why are Team Canada pulling their goalie with a 3-2 lead?". I put the game on just after Canada scored.

 

[expy]

Dubois makes the worst possible pass play rofl

 

[Antiillafire]

Slovaks are done. Would need to beat Danes by like 6 goals.

Edit: Actually looks like Canada would need to lose to France for this to be the case

I don't think that is how it works. If making finals is bad then what about relegated teams ?

I'm all for relegation in the NHL actually.

lol terrible performance.

Deserved though.

Nope. We need to win by 3 to make sure it's in our hands. If we win by less than 3 (in regulation), Canada will have to take at least a point against France.

 

[canswetoxic]

does it means we drop to fourth?

 

[LKI]

What I meant was you can only determine how good or bad team is by comparing it to others in the same coemption. Does this Canadian team look worse than last years after group stage ?

 

[Phil McKraken]

Nope. We need to win by 3 to make sure it's in our hands. If we win by less than 3 (in regulation), Canada will have to take at least a point against France.

That's pretty much a given I dare say. So you basically just need a regulation win.

 

[The Real Guy Lafleur]

Totally outplayed Denmark but no luck. Canada will still win the gold.

 

[Finnswiss]

Uups!! Denmark wins against Canada what a surprise. Denmark can now even lose against Slovakia in OT and they would reach the quarterfinal.

 

[vlady]

That's pretty much a given I dare say. So you basically just need a regulation win.

I dare not take anything for granted. But seeing the way Denmark defends, I have no idea how we are gonna beat them. Our offense sucks even against much weaker defense.
