GDT: Canada vs USA

Yeah I think that Roy was the best player tonight, but I watch him in the QMJHL and he barely looks like the same player. He himself said during his interview with TSN that he doesn't kill penalties, yet there he was being a weapon on the penalty kill and otherwise making hard plays.
Sherbrooke has plenty of PKers. Would not make sense to use our best player as one when we do not have to.
 
I'm a Team Canada fan but it was a pretty even game and that disallowed goal was absolutely the turning point.

Refs are deciding games again! We still may have won but can't say for sure with how momentum and frustration shifts on a bad call.
 
Congrats to Team Canada. I didn't like the first goal overturned, I understand the second one. IIHF a little too strict. Your goalie was outstanding. You scored six goals and we didn't really hear Bedard's name a lot. That's impressive. Good luck tomorrow.

Sapovaliv's team is in the final. His team won against Canada and now Sweden as well. He logged most minutes in the semifinal which they won.
Cooley wasn't even close. You guys lost against Slovakia, won against a weak Finland and the worst quarterfinal team ever in Germany.
Also, Slovakia gave a better match in the quarters than the US did today. Also, I was just as impressed by Mesar and what he was able to create against Canada without having teammates on the same level as Cooley.
But I get if your biased or didn't actually watch the games.
Don’t act like the Czech won some huge game against Canada. It was the first game of the tournament. And don’t act like Sweden isn’t a shell of what they were last year. That weak Fin team scored as many goals against Sweden as the Czechs managed to and that weak Slovakian team took Canada to OT.

USA was a very young team with very few returning players. I’m taking Logan Cooley over anybody on Czechia and everybody but Bedard. Revisionist history already because the Czech were lucky enough to not have to face Canada in the 2nd round.
 
Wow that game was closer than the final score .... Canada's goalie and some opportune goals was the difference. Good luck to USA in the bronze game--- scared to death about Czechia. This was a very emotional game for Canada. Hopefully we have more in the tank

The OHL is the best junior league in the world, and it's leading scorer (Ty Voit) wasn't even invited to the US camp.

But that's US hockey politics - favour players in the USHL, even if it hurts the team. Voit may not have the same NHL potential as other guys, but he's clearly quite dominant at the junior level.
Is it me or is the US team too fixated on college players
