GDT: Canada vs Denmark

[Bounces R Way]

Team Canada got what they deserved. Selfish stupid hockey game from them.
Danes played great.

 

[tobu]

Switzerland can still end 1st or 2nd.
Germany can still end 1st, 2nd or 3rd.
Canada can still end 2nd, 3rd or 4th.
Denmark can still end 3rd, 4th, or 5th
Slovakia can still end 4th or 5th.

 

[FinPanda]

Denmark has one of my favourite national anthems. I fell in love with it during the football Euros.

 

[Brunkmeister]

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

You just know they will step up as usual. Kanada in Round Robin isn’t the same Kanada as in the playoff.

Germany can even win the group

 

[tobu]

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.

Yeah I too fear that we'll struggle against Denmark's defense.

Germany can even win the group

Ah right! Editing.

 

[Antiillafire]

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.

Just noticed. I had tv muted when they mentioned the France game. I hope we come out and play our best, and pray for Canada success

 

[Bagge]

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.

Still, you would imagine they were able to beat a Danish team consisting of players from various European leagues, including the Danish which is like 3rd or 4th grade in Europe.

 

[Antiillafire]

Yeah I too fear that we'll struggle against Denmark's defense.


Ah right! Editing.

What’s worse is that we can’t rely on a powerplay. It’s terrible. I too am worried about our goal scoring. Could need a very good performance from Huska or Rybar.

Such nastiness... LOL

Sucks that we have the early game and can’t adjust to results.

Its very unlikely Canada will be 4th. If Canada beat France on regulation and Germany takes even one point from Switzerland and Denmark beats Slovakia in regulation, then Canada is 4th.

I expect the group will be:
Switzerland
Canada
Germany
Denmark

I can't see Slovakia beating the defence of Denmark.

 

[BruinLVGA]

Hey that’s good for me! Could really use a Canada win here

Holy smoke, I am starting to think that you have some paranormal powers!!!!!!

 

[torero]

Germany can even win the group

They will have to win against Switzerland by 6 goals.

 

[Puck Dogg]

Slovakia is rested tomorrow so they are favorites against Denmark. Canada will tomorrow outscore France and have a strong comeback. Or they should.

 

[canswetoxic]

Danish are out of gas, seem like Slovakia is the favourite.
and I don't see Germany will win againts Swiss.

 

[torero]

Red flags with a white cross are Canada's cryptonite

Take it easy ... whatever ... the later we play you, the better i will feel ... nothing has changed.

 

[Goalie Trapezoid]

Winnipeg should consider Heinz Ehlers as an assistant coach. They have a history of players dads coaching in the organization.

 

[BruinLVGA]

They will have to win against Switzerland by 6 goals.

Is there something that I am missing? By the rules, if Germany beats us tomorrow, they‘re first in the group.

“The tie-breaking system for two teams with the same number of points in a standing will be the game between the two teams, the winner of the game taking precedence.“

 

[SoundAndFury]

They will have to win against Switzerland by 6 goals.

No, they simply need to win by a hair in regulation.

 

[member 305909]

The scheduling is awful. Tomorrow Denmark have another game they need to win while their opponents rested today.

a copy paste from the iihf rules :

In the semi-finals the best-ranked team - criteria: 1) placement in the group, 2) points in the preliminary round, 3) goal difference in the preliminary round, 4) goals scored in the preliminary round, 5) seeding coming into the tournament - will play against the lowest-ranked semi-finalist. The 2nd-best ranked semi-finalist will play the 3rd-best ranked semi-finalist. Both semi-final games will be played in Tampere. The host if qualified, or otherwise the best-ranked semi-finalist according to beforementioned criteria, shall play the early game. The time slots will officially be determined after the quarter-final games.

You are very wrong about the Vikings

But the rule I quoted comes from the official webpage of THESE world championships. I think that supersedes what you quoted. Look (under „tie breaking formula“):

Yes, like someone else below my post said, what you are quoting is for the SEMIFINALS.
