[IDuck]

You mean kane right? their only top player

[GoldiFox]

Is there even enough Crow to go around?

 

[jj cale]

Suck it Canada!

Be sure to stick around for your payback.

I am sure I don't have to worry about that with a class act like you

 

[General Zodd]

Suck it Canada!

See you tomorrow night. Tourney on!!

 

[Nalens Oga]

Perry over Getzlaf please. Or give Thornton a rest but I can't believe Team Canada considers Getzlaf a better player than Perry at this point.

Also, I can see why coaches would like Weber and I don't mind him if he's defending a lead but he's such an ordinary dman now, gimme Letang/Subban over him any day. Pietrangelo also needs to play a bit quicker, he's better than this.

 

[RattsSSV]

A team Canada with Holtby or Crawford in net wins that game.

They weren't so stop with that stuff.

We lost.

 

[ijuka]

Is it tommorw or Sunday?

Tomorrow.

 

[wonton15]

Pietrangelo was actually very frustrating to watch this game. Hopefully it's just the rust but he needs to be better. Very entertaining game!

 

[MardyBum]

This game didn't happen. Canada is supposed to dominate every best on best game with their C team, at least from what I've read.

They've only won 3 of the last 4 Olympics and the last two WHC's.

Try harder.

 

[clydesdale line]

US needs to stop winning these exhibition/preliminary games. Save it for when it matters.

Agreed. We always beat Canada in the preliminary and then lose later. Hopefully this year is different but I'm not holding my breath. But it is nice we can always get up to play the Canadians.

Pretty sure if the chips are down, you'll see all 3 in there.

 

[The Toews Era*]

what game are you watching he was one of the better ones while toews was fishing for the puck all game skating like an 80 year old

The one where he skated the puck into a 3on1 the other way into an empty net

 

[snipes]

Is it tommorw or Sunday?

Tomorrow night in Ottawa.

 

[Blitzago*]

The better team always wins.

What... This is not true.

Can't hear you as those 3 Gold Medals are blocking the sound waves bro!

That is correct. It's an exhibition game, I doubt we lose this game if it meant something in the points table.

 

[MardyBum]

Agreed. We always besmat Canada in the preliminary and then lose later. Hopefully this year is different but I'm not holding my breath. But it is nice we can always get up to play the Canadians.

Lose the round robin, throw the game. Pull a Sweden.

Guaranteed championship.

 

[flaneur]

sloppy game. well at least there is a lot of tape to review and study for Canada.

 

[New User Name]

One day, the world will be just as good or better than the USA in basketball.
That is how Canada must be feeling these recent years. Not much difference, if any, between USA and Canada these days, hockey-wise

No one will ever be better than the US at basketball.

As for your second point.....I agree.

 

[hockeygoon15]

This is some great hockey I must say. As someone who was skeptical of this competition I must say I'm entertained.

...and if Getzlaf gets injured and miss half the season?

Ya know, it is possible to actually like the sport of hockey and not just a specific team. Would I be upset if my guy got hurt? Sure. But it's hockey. That happens. Regardless of who did or didn't get hurt, this was a highly entertaining game.

 

[The Price is Right]

Stupid too play Canada vs USA for pre tourney
.. the risk of injury is too high... canada should of played team Europe instead...

 

[lakai17]

Big rebound game tomorrow. Even an exhibition loss I don't like to these guys.

 

[clunk]

These American fans seem to forget the last two real best on best tourneys... Hmm..

 

[DearDiary]

Why are people acting like this was the world cup finals?
