Olympics: Canada vs USA

[Angry Little Elf]

Time to hold another hockey summit.

The state of hockey in Canada at the highest level of competition is lacking.

This is like our Z team dude

How do the playoffs work? I assume Canada plays China next. If we win, even if we lose to the U.S., do we advance?

It's an unusual roster composition circumstance, that's for sure.

Should’ve brought as much of the WJ team as you can, and fill the holes with vets. Not the other way around.

Reverse jinx hopefully

I like that idea.

David Desharnais on the Z team? Surely you jest!

Anyway, it is what it is.

I can cheer on Jake Sanderson.

 

[PG Canuck]

I like that idea.

The sport is a young mans game. Maybe the vets prove me wrong but not a fan of this roster makeup

seems like the US may have kinda done that but haven’t dove in deep to their team

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Just doesn’t feel like the Olympics without the best players.

 

[PG Canuck]

Glen Healy should not be on my tv right now.

“Pasquale was really good at dodgeball there”

He had some huge saves...

 

[Mainiac]

Everybody advances. It's actually not thst bad to lose a game or two in the prelims because then you have another game to get your lines/taxi squad sorted out.

 

[Fogelhund]

These Canada jerseys are terrible.

Both jerseys are terrible. Can't see the numbers clearly on either team. But yes, Canada are worse.

Canada's goalie isn't very good.... This isn't a very high level of hockey.. but.. nationalism yo.

I like that the US is up 2-1, but I don't expect a 1 goal lead to last.

I missed most of the first period. I assume that is Eddie Pasquale in net? I saw him playing for the Chicago Wolves and the Grand Rapids Griffins of the AHL.

 

[Canucks LB]

Man it hurts watching this, Yet here i am

Yes

 

[Canucks LB]

Does anybody have the lineups?

 

[NyQuil]

More Rush!!!

 

[danyhabsfan]

At least good enough to start the Farrell, Primeau and a 2nd package posts, right?

Jack Quinn available?

I find it best to open that tweet and then shut my device off because it's similar to looking at the uniforms on the ice.

Edit - the US one:



Stair at a bare lightbulb for about 10 seconds. Then try to see if you can read their names/numbers.

I think the game is pretty entertaining the jerseys are awful though.

I guess I'm not the only one who finds it hard to get emotionally invested.

 

[PG Canuck]

Old bastard vet Canada can’t keep up

 

[NyQuil]

Yikes Pasquale.

He slid right out of the net.

 

[Chainshot]

Jack Quinn available?

Heh.

No.

 

[GoBluz24]

GOAL USA!!! 3-1
