GDT: Game 10: Canada Vs Russia | 1PM EST 7PM CET | RUS 6 - 0 CAN

[The Drop]

Oh wow one out of ten. If every tournament was played at European soil you guys wouldn’t win much.

Canadian Jrs have won 8 gold medals on European soil.
You literally have no idea what you’re talking about.

you’re also comparing all European teams vs Canada. Which should tell you how inferior you feel

i dont think laf is injured that bad , just lots of drama because hes a big star

Hard to say but he was clearly in immense pain on the ice, never like to see that.

Future 1st pick...

In what world?

I'm guessing the world in which he decided Laf just had a career ending injury IDK

If we cant score,can we atleast goon it up and beat the Russians to a pulp?

 

[Petrus]

What has happened to the goalie program in Canada? It seems every year goaltending is a big question mark in this tournament.

 

[DuklaNation]

Bet they're regretting not taking Newhook now.

The good news is that if Canada wins their last 2 games, I think they are guaranteed a top 2 finish.

We would have 9 points, and if we beat both the Germans and Czechs neither could finish with more than 6. Plus because US/Russia plays each other, one of them will finish with less than 9.

So if they can take care of business, they are probably going to play either Slovakia/Switzerland in the quarters, and both of them look like dog ****.

You had me right up till the point you started insulting other nation's teams.

 

[Alerion]

how is this on coaching/gm?

I just don't think those guys deploy systems that use all the skill on this team optimally, Canada looks like a bunch of grinders out there and did last year as well when they couldn't score goals to save their lives. If 2020 goes at all like 2019, I don't want their hands on this team again. Just my opinion.

Did Carter Hart not play in this tournament? Am I getting tournaments confused or something???

they can try, but what if the Russians answer back?

 

[The Drop]

Yes. Newhook would have this game at 3-3.

Not sure if serious.

First off, hopefully those days are behind us.

Secondly, with the way this game is going, the Russians might beat us to a pulp.

 

[Artanis]

Is Byfield injured or something? Was hoping he'd step up with Lafreniere's injury. He's been a ghost.

 

[jaloviina]

Since USA lost to Canada, Canada loss to Russia, and Russia lost to the Czechs, that only means one thing: Sweden or Finland will win the gold.

I like the way you are thinking!

17 to 1 vs Sweden in the 1976 tournament.

1976 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships - Wikipedia

“Canada was represented by a club team, the Sherbrooke Castors, while the other four nations were represented by teams of their top under-20 players.”

Now it makes sense why this happened.

Bet they're regretting not taking Newhook now.

Would he have put up a 6 or 7 in this one?

Hey, way to go Canada at the Spengler.

 

[Petrus]

Did Carter Hart not play in this tournament? Am I getting tournaments confused or something???

Good point. Carter Hart is probably the only exceptional one the last several years.

 

[NyQuil]

We need a separate thread for: “If (insert my team’s neglected prospect) was here, things would be much different” posts.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Hey guys, does anyone know what time the real game starts?

 

[DuklaNation]

Yes. Newhook would have this game at 3-3.

I'm referring to scoring creativity depth with Lafreniere's injury. Just proves my point in the earlier post. Of course, would not affect the outcome in this game. Please continue .
