GDT: Canada Vs Finland | 12/31 @ 6PM ET | TSN/NHLN

[J1mLahey]

Levi has yet to be truly tested. Its going to be key to stay out of the box and avoid Lundell going to work. Lots on the line for that cross over quarters matchup.

Hope everyone has a few cold ones (adult or just basic pop) and hopefully this game can live up to the show RUS SWE put on last night.

Happy New Years Eve everyone!

 

[ChicagoBullsFan]

Tight and close game coming for sure.
But Canada is the favorite so i say 5-3 for Canada.

 

[Kezaster]

I'd be positively suprised if fins can keep up with canada. I'm expecting something like 5-1 or 4-1 to canada.

 

[Jaska]

Kind of a funny thought. We in Finland will watch this game live in 2021, while they are playing it in 2020.

Hoping for a good, clean game with minimal referee interference.

 

[Zub]

Sweden and Finland wins tonight and i'm 500 dollars richer lets go!

 

[crump]

Great New Years Eve warm up. 2 top teams go at it. First big test for both teams. Cheers everyone.

 

[Auston Marlander]

Finally a Canada game that's interesting. 4-3 Canada.

Both underdogs, both played last night. That's a bold bet, good on you.

 

[Stoat]

Levi has yet to be truly tested.

Happy New Years Eve everyone!

I have tested Levi many times on New Years celebrations. It is really fun place to get wasted with friends. However due to covid, I'm not able to test it tonight.

Happy New Years Eve!

Go hard or go home as they say

 

[Eye of Ra]

looking forward to this. i think canada wins but im cheering for finland.

 

[The Blue Baron]

After what I have seen from both teams

5-2 Canada!

Perfetti Tomasino Guhle have big games!

So the trick is to start drink at 3:30PM central?

The Finns have been drinking since December 21st.

As a Florida fan, two dogs in the fight, but some patterns are unavoidable:

Lundell will have the first goal in the game and four points continuing his upwards progression from 1 to 2 to 3 pts. Levi will play well but Canada is no match for the Lundell

 

[ORRFForever]

5-2 Canada!

Perfetti Tomasino Guhle have big games!

This feels right to me.

I don't see Canada giving up more than 2 goals.

 

[ORRFForever]

I see Canada fans are getting carried away after their team demolished lesser hockey nations. A rude awakening awaits them.

Such bitterness towards Canada and their fans. Don't hate us for feeling good about our team.

 

[NyQuil]

Don't hate us for feeling good about our team.

Please, the only reason we ever win anything at hockey is because of the sweet, sweet bribes we pay to the IIHF and to the refs.

incorrect, before you posted there was a single poster from helsinki saying 7-1 Canada.

No need in making things up, wait till it actually happens before saying that.

All true.

I think there are a lot of U.S. fans (not directed at ViD) who are angry because their "dream team" hasn't aged well - our 2019 draft players look (much) better than their 2019 draft players and few would have predicted that in the summer of 2019.

You don’t need actual facts when you have already made up the storylines in your head.

 

[NyQuil]

All true.

I think there are a lot of U.S. fans (not directed at VID) who are angry because our 2019 draft players have overtaken their 2019 draft players.

The real tournament starts very soon.

I can see a number of teams ending up standing by the end, including the US.

I just can never understand that mentality of some fans here, I mean, why do this?

Of course. 5 teams have a chance of winning. If I was a betting man...

Canada
---------
Russia
U.S.
----
Finland
Sweden

 

[ghostnights]

Hoping Byfield keeps his momentum going .

5-1 Canada

Byfield, Cozens , Drysdale, Tomasino 2

Lundell

 

[Gold Standard]

I just can never understand that mentality of some fans here, I mean, why do this?

it's just the age we live in... got an agenda, but don't have the facts to back it up, make up your own facts.

Looking forward to this...won't have quite the drama and intrigue of a Canada v USA New Year's Eve tilt, but should be a close, competitive game. and that's what we need. Canada for the W 4-2.

Happy New Year!
