PGT: Game 13: Canada 5 - Czech Republic 1

[Junohockeyfan]

Could you imagine this thread if Comtois was a Habs prospect. Good Lord...

Comtois dropping like a fly as usual. Really unfortunate to see from such a talented player.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Czechs just look too slow. Too slow against Canada & the Americans. I can't see them finishing 3rd over USA like Button predicted.

 

[Captain Bowie]

Have you ever been punched before? It doesn't shoot you off your feet like a Hollywood stunt.

And definitely not when you're a pro athlete with excellent core strength.

There's one in every crowd, let's not encourage him.

Fun period, glad Canada took advantage of their chances. Needs to tighten up defensively though.

comtois is awesome the ones whining about him on here need to grow up.. any one of you wouId take him on your nhI team and you know it.

You are correct.....that doesn’t mean people can’t call him on his diving nonsense. (Tonight wasn’t a dive though)

Oh, and as far as Comtois goes, i dont care if he was the guy that shot Kennedy, hes our best player hands down.

 

[Outofbodyinhungary]

Love the spirit from Necas, if only Adam Ruzicka had such aggression and seemed like he cared. Go Czechs go!

Yep and when you are actually KO'ed your body goes stiff and you don't get up afterwards.

Some people should watch boxing or MMA if they want to see what happens when someone actually gets hit hard and knocked out.

 

[snipes]

Bet Bouchard is concussed. That's a huge blow

He’s been out there since that hit.

Comtois has been the best player at the tournament so far.

 

[Christien]

Czech coaching is so against putting Necas with Z

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Comtois is a cross between Claude Lemieux and Mike Ribeiro. lol

(I deserve likes for that post).

 

[CycloneSweep]

Has he, I haven't seen him. Must be a super quiet game from him.

Yup. Comtois, Glass, Tippett and Smith have all been amazing.

 

[Pip]

Comtois might not have expected to get punched in the face. He was facing the other way. Definitely changes how one reacts.

I think people are bringing out their pitchforks a little too quickly here.

 

[czechcanadian]

If coaching had half a brain they would be doing better. Not putting the best guys together is clearly not working. Starting next period they have to stack top 2 lines or its over if it already isn’t.

I agree with you, but he hasn't exactly earned the benefit of the doubt, so I understand it.

 

[Get North]

IIHF is a joke, still can't believe somebody is allowed to continue playing in a game after punching somebody in the face. What does it take? It'll only take a Canadian taking 5 strides before hitting someone to kick him out of the game, but an European will have to shoot a Canadian to get kicked out of the game.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Yup. Comtois, Glass, Tippett and Smith have all been amazing.

Smith might end up as the second best defender in the draft.

indeed he has been.

 

[Pip]

I agree with you, but he hasn't exactly earned the benefit of the doubt, so I understand it.

That’s a fair point.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Comtois, Glass, Brannstrom, & Quinn Hughes have all been amongst the best players in the tourney so far IMO. Maybe UPL also.

 

[jj cale]

Sure would like to see Lafreniere have a strong game tonight, potting one would be extra nice. Need to get him and his confidence going, we need all hands on deck out there.

Nice to see my wish granted.

 

[Scrantonicity 2]

Kondelik is an intriguing prospect

don't you think you're overreacting a bit? We can talk about a bigger penalty for the punch, of course.. But at the same time, if you see Comtois shoving his hand into Necas' face whilst pushing him into the Czech bench, you'll see things a bit less dramatic, dont you think?
