GDT: Exhibition • Dec. 21 • Canada vs. Sweden • 7:00 PM ET

[VictorLustig]

4th exhibition game for Canada, 1st for Sweden. It shows.

 

[scotian1]

They having playing on the edge since the start of the game, this could get out of hand before it is over.

 

[Get North]

Sweden put too much emphasize on physical play that Canada is just faster than them IMO, probably because they wanted to make sure they could match Canada's physicality.

 

[Craz1bo1]

Liking Hicketts so far

 

[BigBen]

Swedes need to **** off - that was a dirty cross check just then.

Yeah Ritchie and Crouse need to run someone over

 

[ulvvf]

Haha what?

Yes, the first 8 min sweden was a lot better than canada even if canada lead by 2-0 and iM very happy with those 8 minuts, but the last minuts canada have been better.

 

[Future]

Sweden doesn't look that good tbh

It's their first game and it's exhibition. It's just rust right now. They will be able to start making passes soon

 

[scotian1]

Another dirty hit.

 

[SurMartin]

So

Norell-Aho
Forsling-Englund
Lagesson-Bergman
Kylington

?

 

[EK47]

Sweden look terrible, the defence wtf?!

They're not even in the game so far this is actually pathetic.

 

[y2kcanucks]

Yes, the first 8 min sweden was a lot better than canada even if canada lead by 2-0 and iM very happy with those 8 minuts, but the last minuts have been more even.

lol what?

Canada has dominated this game so far. It's still exhibition though so I don't put too much stock in it. Sweden isn't this bad, but I do think Canada is going to be a very good team.

 

[Tyrus]

Yes, the first 8 min sweden was a lot better than canada even if canada lead by 2-0 and iM very happy with those 8 minuts, but the last minuts canada have been better.

Sweden had a single shot on goal...

 

[Get North]

Yeah, it shows why Sweden is slow out there. I think they were too high on "physical" and "big players" because they didn't want to get beat up. Sacrificed skill and speed.

 

[Alerion]

I fully expect Sweden to be strong once the tourney begins. I'm not sure when they arrived in Canada but it's after midnight in Sweden so the time difference could be making a difference as well.

 

[Peen]

So

Norell-Aho
Forsling-Englund
Lagesson-Bergman
Kylington

?

Is Kylington not going to be playing?

Damnit I just picked him in fantasy.

 

[BigBen]

Yes, the first 8 min sweden was a lot better than canada even if canada lead by 2-0 and iM very happy with those 8 minuts, but the last minuts canada have been better.

Yeah, that's absolutely false. If anything, Sweden started slow and have gotten better, but have been far from the better team out there.

 

[MuzzaFuzza]

Yes, the first 8 min sweden was a lot better than canada even if canada lead by 2-0 and iM very happy with those 8 minuts, but the last minuts canada have been better.

What? Sweden has looked awful

 

[larmex99]

Sweden had a single shot on goal...

Pretty sure he is watching a different game.

 

[Snippit]

It's so nice to have 3 offensive lines for once.

 

[CalgaryLeaf*]

Sweden doesn't have a good D-core.

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

Another "dirty" play. Swedens gonna be shorthanded alot this tournament if they keep this up.

 

[Davebo*]

Yes, the first 8 min sweden was a lot better than canada even if canada lead by 2-0 and iM very happy with those 8 minuts, but the last minuts canada have been better.

Damn...

None of what this poster is spouting is anywhere close to reality, so those of you without streams might want to look elsewhere for their opinions.

 

[Novak Djokovic]

Swedes are chippy.

 

[Ari Gold]

Yes, the first 8 min sweden was a lot better than canada even if canada lead by 2-0 and iM very happy with those 8 minuts, but the last minuts canada have been better.

LOL WTF ?

You don't set the bar very high sir..

I would award you an 9th place ribbon but it might go on your mantle.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

PP looks really good.
