GDT: Canada vs Sweden, Dec 29, 1pm EST

[HabSgt]

You guys are all losing your minds at Canada's power play.

Habs fans see this as just a normal power play, don't they all look like that?

 

[TimeZone]

Likely a Sweden/USA final

Shame Russia isn't involved, I think they would easily be better than Canada, Finland and have a solid shot at gold.

 

[GlassesJacketShirt]

this has to be the worst coaching staff canada has ever had.

my god.

Not a good look on them, but it's hard to beat Steve Spott. He had a dream roster to work with and they were trounced.

 

[D0ctorCool]

GG Sweden! you're lookin' primed for a Silver or Gold this year if you can keep up this play!

"A boarding penalty will be assessed to any Player who checks or pushes an unsuspecting opponent in such a manner that causes the opponent to hit or impact the boards violently or dangerously. The severity of the penalty will be based upon the degree of violence of the player's impact with the boards."

You're kidding, right?

Beck knew that hit was coming. Nothing unsuspecting about it. If you don't like hard hits along the boards, watch women's hockey.

Team Canada turning in a complete gong show game
no McFlurries for you boys

Well done Sweden, better team deserved the W

Sweden doing well when it counts? Don’t bet on it

 

[Chainshot]

It’s the round robin.

Grab a Joe Louis and a Pepsi and relax.

We've seen plenty of times where Canada uses a loss in the round robin to rally for the rest of their run into the medals. Wouldn't surprise me if this is similar.

 

[Panthaz89]

why wouldn't you pull your goalie there?

I mean they got to get the puck out for more than 2 seconds...

 

[Czechboy]

Third Swedish shutout?

Yikes! That D is exceptional.

Good job Sweden!

Good luck with Finland on NYE.. I expect a great atmosphere!

I'll be in the bathroom puking. We'll see what next game brings.

 

[MM917]

Absolutely embarrassing

Sweden did nothing but didn't have because Canada decided to absolutely suck and the coaches looked like they had money on Sweden in that game.

 

[Canadian Finn]

Amazing crowd atmosphere

it's amazing what can happen when you price tickets from $30CAD to $60CAD.

absolutely amazing.

hockey canada is an embarrassment.

 

[Master P]

Better team won

Nice game from Sweden

 

[nucks88]

Yep, they looked good.

They always do in the Round Robin…..

 

[Auston Marlander]

That outcome matched exactly what we saw on the ice. GG Sweden.

 

[Vegan Knight]

And they shouldn't.


And they shouldn't.


And they shouldn't.

I agree with you but I don't see it stopping.

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

And they shouldn't.

Ok

And they shouldn't.

Ok

And they shouldn't.

Ok

 

[hak]

Good game. The first two periods were very entertaining.

 

[snipes]

Congrats Swedish fans. Well earned win.

Lots to work on for Canada, they played way too cute and passive. Zero desperation in the 3rd and they deserved that loss. Completely flubbing or passing up grade A point blank scoring chances was unacceptable.
