GDT: Canada vs USA

[trilobyte]

This is out house!

Holy cow, remember that sign held up proudly? Died laughing.
Legendary

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

USA outworked Canada, but they are lacking skills, espacially at shooting at the net

They did outwork them at times, but timely saves and not being able to finish huet them. You could see they backed off forechecking as the game went on.

Congrats Canada... Before the tourney I said you'd win, after your only loss I said you'd win... Still saying you'll win this.

 

[nucks88]

Confirmed the officials are on team Canada's side.

No but God is…..

 

[HabSgt]

Good game USA, you played well, hope you win tomorrow. No joke.

It's a game of inches.

That started on THIS board.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Good job Canada. Good luck in the Gold Medal game!

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

gg ez get wrekt

 

[GermanSpitfire]

USA’s best players this tournament have been 18.

Next year‘s USA team is going to be very good - just a year too early.

 

[NyQuil]

Milic kept us in it.

Great to have some solid goaltending with all the hand-wringing about our development at that position.

69.1. INTERFERENCE ON THE GOALKEEPER This rule is based on the premise that an attacking Player’s position, whether inside or outside the Goal Crease, should not, by itself, determine whether a goal should be allowed or disallowed. In other words, goals scored while attacking Players are standing in the Goal Crease may, in appropriate circumstances be allowed. Goals should be disallowed only if:

(I) an attacking Player, either by their positioning or by a "relevant contact”, impairs the Goalkeeper’s ability to move freely within their Goal Crease or defend their goal; or

(II) an attacking Player initiates intentional or deliberate contact with a Goalkeeper, inside or outside of their Goal Crease

I think it was pretty clear that the first disallowed goal fit (II).

They played really well, and they are well coached just like always. A really good team. Played well and with class.

 

[JackSlater]

Credit to USA, certainly closer than the score. Canada took advantage of good bounces and got the deserved win. Credit to the depth guys for pulling that out. Milic was a bit of an adventure but he made some huge saves. Roy was the best player in the game. Gaucher's line was again quite good. Beck was good in his shifts. Del Mastro, other than his stupid over the glass penalty, was great throughout the game. Nice improvement for Zellweger over the previous game as well.

Infer? I'm flat stating it. Just more of her to love baby.

this deserves an Al Bundy reaction (if you know, you know)

 

[Chainshot]

I just have to say it because everyone hates it…THIS IS OUR GAME!

But is it out house?

 

[HabSgt]

I want a cool painted stick & a Tissot watch

 

[MichaelFarrell]

I didn’t think we’d win gold this year. I’m hoping Cooley stays in college and can play next year. I wasn’t a big fan of our offense overall.

Hughes had a bad tournament considering expectations. Cooley was far and away our best player and one of the best of the tournament. He’s improved so much.

It was going to be really tough to beat this Canadian team.

Looking forward to the rematch

They were lacking high end creativity as well.

Pastujov and Voit are absolutely better than the vast majority of these American forwards.

They let politics get in the way of selecting the best players available, period.

 

[nbwingsfan]

You’re kidding yourself if Canada had those goals called back you’d be in your moms basement shedding tears and wiping your wet snots on your autographed John Tavares jersey

I’m no coach or anything, but maybe USA should try scoring more legal goals? It truly helps your team win, I swear

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Anyone know anything about watches ? How much would those go for for ?

 

[Tobias Kahun]

the first one was definitely legal unless you are blind dude barely even grazed the goalie that bumped into him.

The goalie bumped into him, in the crease.

You know what the blue paint means right?

So you're telling me if a goalie is hugging the post and a player plants himself in the crease and the goalie bumps into him sliding across that it's the goalies fault?

 

[Svedu]

USA’s best players this tournament have been 18.

Next year‘s USA team is going to be very good - just a year too early.

I believe Sweden and Finland could be just as good though.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Undrafted in two straight drafts......cause he is too small for the NHL.

Reminded me of Dustin Wolf in this one. Economic movement, tracked the puck well, kept his feet well, and controlled laterals.

 

[Smif]

At least half of the Canadian fans are Leafs fans who had to live through the disallowed game 7 goal against Tampa, so that's something at least.

The first goal should've counted, and even if the second should have been overturned for this to happen twice is both optically embarrassing and incredibly unlikely.

Optically embarrassing?? lmao, ok.
