GDT: Canada vs USA, Group A, Dec 31 2024; 20:00 EST

[SanDogBrewin]

Canada was absolutely in this game. But took some bone head penalties. Pinelli is a pinhead. Trying to do his best Matt Cooke.

 

[Takeahnase]

Not at our best today and while we were good enough to beat minnows like Canada we will have to be much better against the top teams like Sweden, the Czechs, or Finland.

 

[Jussi]

Oh well, this means we'll play Slovakia, so this will do.

 

[hockey20000]

Guys don’t blame the players please, this is at the top and with the coach. You just don’t have this lack of discipline and lack of cohesion and organization without senior leadership involved. This isn’t on our kids. Blame everyone else, it’s a needed wake up

oh so its dave cameron who made cowan hit the us player from behind causing penalty was it? please there plenty of players to blame also

 

[Dominance]

Celebrating getting bullied by Canada’s laughably inept, genuinely mentally challenged B team!

 

[5 14 6 1]

Easton Cowen is the worst player in Canada WJC history. Just completely brain dead all over the ice and still get ice.

 

[End on a Hinote]

Hockey is Americas game! Happy New Year

Never

 

[Divine]

Well that may be an excuse for his underwhelming play, but not the dumb and costly penalties. Nice assist he had just now at least

He took 1 penalty in 4 games? Be real, you hate him because of who drafted him. There's other players that took more penalties than that this game alone.

 

[Beerz]

Nah I have lots of gold medals to keep me company, let me know when you catch up.

Alright Alright Alright

 

[trilobyte]

Heard some U S A chants. You gotta love it.

yes, you would

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Better high end talent on Russia, I think the tournament has generally been pretty ass since they've left unfortunately.

It was already top heavy

Demidov in this tournament would just be cheating

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Yeah? Did you expect him to be the best player on the team? He was picked 28th in a team full of top picks. Including Yager, who was top 10 in Cowan's draft.

He definitely was expected to be a top player for this team yep.

Yager wasn't a top 10 pick, he went 14th. That draft was almost two years ago, you're gonna try to tell me Cowan hasn't been getting tons of hype since then?

 

[TimeZone]

Canada sucks this tournament. Woof!

They were trash last year as well, though this time it seems self inflicted considering the talent left at home.

 

[Stelmacki]

Canada needs to stop playing half the game shorthanded and they'll win the tournament

Nah. They don’t have the offense for it.

 

[McMozesmadness]

Americans deserved it. Canada completely unravelled

 

[Bounces R Way]

Those loonies have come home to roost Hockey Canada.

A very deserved result.

 

[5 14 6 1]

He took 1 penalty in 4 games? Be real, you hate him because of who drafted him. There's other players that took more penalties than that this game alone.

He was god awful and single handedly handed the game over in the third. Horrible penalty, brain dead turnover and putrid PP

 

[PWiz30]

Not really decisive either way. Both teams were undisciplined. Canada was a bit more undisciplined. McKenna looked awesome for Canada and it's huge for the US that Augustine found his A game.

 

[TonsofPuppies]

Honestly, I'd be somewhat worried were I a team USA fan. They didn't play that great tonight and couldn't score even strength against a team that lost to Latvia. Lmao I expect the American team to be better going forward, or else their tournament will be short as Canada's will be.

 

[Lenny Levino]

lmaooooo get out of here Canadians.

FREEEEEE BIRDDDDDDDD

OH SAY CAN (YOU) SEEEEEEEE

 

[hockey20000]

embarrassing i hope they feel it 2 time to start babying the players show up in the qfs or get boo'd out of the building your choice boys

 

[Jordan Belfort]

Culture is broken. What coach allows players to continuously take penalties and then keeps putting them out on the ice.

Hopefully they lose against Czech to send a wake up call

 

[MXD]

Honestly, the only way hockey canada will give up their moronic old school "play the right way" is it they lose again in the qf.. maybe..

There was nothing right in the way Canada played.

 

[north21]

Canada needs to stop playing half the game shorthanded and they'll win the tournament

If they can score.

 

[Divine]

He definitely was expected to be a top player for this team yep

Among all the players picked above him. No one hates on Yager because the Penguins drafted him. If he was Leafs prospect, then he'd be the one costing them the tournament. Same with McKenna.
