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

[Belial]

23-0 high quality shots. Yikes

Massacre...

 

[McDrai]

50/50 jackpot at $4 million!

[Jagemon]

The reffing hasn't been bad ... can't use that for an excuse in this game come on

Think no one is using that as an excuse, but just because you are outplayed doesnt mean you are not allowed to call a shit call exactly what it is.

 

[Satan]

Finland is sick

 

[ORRFForever]

That 50/50 is enticing, damn.

"If I won the 50/50, I spend half the money on drugs and strippers and blow the other half " - old joke.

 

[iCanada]

Getting hemmed in your own zone is energy depleting in beer league, I can’t even imagine how gassed those Finnish players must be at best-on-best type level.

Yeah, these kids are likely just sucking wind in the dressing room. Just being smothered.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Canada is just too stacked this year

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Think no one is using that as an excuse, but just because you are outplayed doesnt mean you are not allowed to call a shit call exactly what it is.

It would be a complete anomaly for someone to complain about the refs

 

[Opak]

Anyway ... 3-0 is not insurmountable. Canada has to show up for the 3rd

C'mon man. With how much problems we've had with offense in this tournament, I can't see any way Finland pots 4 on Canada in the last 20 minutes.

Congrats on your group win, good luck in the QFs.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

For all you advanced stat geeks out there, the following.

I'm very concerned about Cozens Corsi numbers, every Canadian forwards zone entry numbers and Holloway's Fenwick number. And the Corsi for even strength shots is concerning for our defencemen.

First world problems.

 

[joe dirte]

The problem with this is, this grouping has really 9nly had one top level team while the other has 3. The other group has 4 of the top 5 teams..... its very hard to figure out how good they are in comparison to the other groups teams.

 

[RJJ]

Finland is sick

Sick of chasing the Canadians around their own zone.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

This is an absolute masterclass from Canada.

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

Canada is just too stacked this year

Imagine Lafreniere on the team

 

[Rabid Ranger]

That Friends commercial. I'm not entirely convinced in how well that show has aged.

Not at all in the current political and social climate.

 

[Jagemon]

Buff wanted to play in Wpg......if anywhere

I'd like to tell you about a joke that flew way over your head. Also it was directed to one waaaaaaay too excites homer on this thread.

I will leave you to find out that individual if you are interested. Hint: He also took the bait, hook line and sinker.

 

[1OApick]

Well as a fin no need for any excuses. Canada is this much better and we’ve been really lucky it’s only 3-0 could be 6-0 easily.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Yikes.

Great news for the Zamboni driver! He’s only had to clean half the ice each period.

 

[Arhidia]

Respect to the ppl in finland
For still being up
Happy New Year

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Imagine Lafreniere on the team

Lafreniere and Dach.

It would be a complete massacre.

 

[ViD]

It’s pretty clear Russia, Sweden, USA are all a level above Finland this year. It will be a major shock if these 3 countries plus Canada don’t make it to the semis

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Respect to the ppl in finland
For still being up
Happy New Year

The Finnish know how to party!

 

[Zamuz]

canadians cheering like championship victory over meaningless game

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Respect to the ppl in finland
For still being up
Happy New Year

More respect for the Finnish team who are willingly going to the 3rd to get slaughtered once again

 

[NyQuil]

Finland outshooting Canada in this period.
