GDT: Exhibition game - Canada Vs Russia

[Just Linda]

Is there any streams for the game?

I'll hook you up

Good shift for McMicheal line

Before determining who WILL be the guy, sure.

But for people who know a lot about these prospects... any likely candidates?

It's a tough call. Before this game, a lot of us were questioning Byfield but he has looked great, today. Let's just give it a bit of time because with so much talent, it could be anyone, or it could be by committee.

That Byram giveaway to open the period was something

Byfield has been a horse below the dots physically at both ends of the ice. Love to see it from him.

Tad off topic, but why is this tournament billed as Edmonton and Red Deer? Will some games be in Red Deer? Thanks to anyone who knows the answer

 

[ORRFForever]

Save? Goalpost?

Edit : The latter.

 

[snipes]

Tight checking game both ways.

Good chance by Russia just now. Off the post. Each team with a post.

Byram is careless in his zone lol they need to split up drysdale and byram...

Byfield looks much better than last year, I agree.

I noticed because I focused on him. He looks solid. Still not a big fan of how he plays, but he is less passive than last year, so that's a plus. I'd like him to move his feet even more. The icing was a lazy play IMO... but those happen haha.

I have never seen a good skating D get beat wide as much as Byram

 

[Statsy]

Dach really wants to dangle people but Russia is doing a nice job on him.

 

[bsu]

Drysdale is being limited because he has to babysit in the defensive zone... Put a defensive defensemen with byram....

The nice thing is, with all this talent, we don't need one player to dominate.

Once this team gels, it could be something very special. Let's hope!

Let's get some looks happening here boys.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Ok, that back pressure by Byfield was great.

 

[canuckking1]

13 for Russia has been good

 

[LFCTML]

Enough with the no-look passes, boys... just keep it simple and keep the cycle going if you have to. It works. If we avoid those senseless turnovers, we're gonna be fine. Seems like a few guys are trying a bit too hard to make something pretty happen.

The defensive d don't look good enough to get that promotion yet.

 

[GAGLine]

Schneider is quicker/more agile than I expected.

Good shift for McMicheal line

Only started watching since the start of the second but the 2 McMichael Perfetti Krebs shifts look really good

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Byfield playing with a lot more energy

 

[snipes]

Good job by the Newhook line hemming the Russians in

 

[ORRFForever]

Anyone know the shots on goal?

 

[Nickel eye Heel hers]

nice pass by Perfetti.....so close...
