So is Virtanen the 13th man or is the fourth line just not getting any ice?

 

[199991]

How did gauthier even make this team. Just terrible

Yeah he's so terrible in this game he made like 45 turnovers.....

post-head-post

lol that some luck

 

[Lehner]

Man I'd love to see McDavid play with Duclair, both can fly and have size.

 

[JimboA]

I will never understand how a goalie can be beaten if the puck never crossed the line (Ray on Nylander's post).

Point is the 13th forward....1 or 2 shifts in the game

 

[EK47]

Going forward, if this is the goalie we're gonna ride the skaters will have to score a ton of goals.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

I'd get bored on the bench was I Virt

 

[1Gold Standard]

didnt canada need to score twice in the last minute or so just to get to OT?

pay attention. I said replay that game 10 times, U.S. will win 3. that one + 2 others. You don't agree. I don't care.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

Duclair has been Canada's best player so far.

Nurse is everywhere as well. It is a very talented team.

OT is a crap shoot... **** happens. replay that game 10 times, Canada wins 7.

I agree. On paper, now, it looks like a walk for Canada.

Carlson, D'Amigo, and Stepan played out of their minds....and our goaltending was just a hair less brutal than yours.

The beginning of Canada's goaltending woes.

both goalies were shaky that game if I recall. Both goalies got pulled and Jake Allen had a stupid goal where he couldn't catch a simple dump in and dropped the puck in front of an American player. Also, in overtime all it takes is one shot.

I have never had the courage to watch that game

didnt canada need to score twice in the last minute or so just to get to OT?

Yup. Just looking at the teams in hindsight.

 

[Coaches Coroner]

It's the second pre-tournament game, and people are already crying over the ice time of certain players like we're in the medal rounds. Hilarious.

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

I think he'd be pretty stoked he's playing world juniors.

 

[scotian1]

Wow, what a move by Nurse, looked like Serge Savard.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

I think he'd be pretty stoked he's playing world juniors.

Getting no ice time sucks..

 

[Get North]

Sweden getting dominated like Russia.

 

[Tv9924]

Hopefully this is just the coaching staff playing their rusty top guys to get them into game shape, because we can't be a two line team against the US

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

Getting no ice time sucks..

I don't think it's so bad when your playing on the national junior team.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

Are they only playing the first 2 or 3 lines?

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

Hopefully this is just the coaching staff playing their rusty top guys to get them into game shape, because we can't be a two line team against the US

Paul and Fabbri line have been decent.

 

[GTA]

Lollipop what do you think of the game so far?

 

[Jtown]

nurse is a stud

 

[Davebo*]

Run the score up, Canada, swedes are asking for it...

 

[cneely]

Nurse looks really good.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

LAzar... pass

 

[Alerion]

Who took Canada's penalty there?
