GDT: Canada-Finland, 3:30 p.m Local Time

[Cono]

Canada seems to have the most talented junior team, ever. I think that without lockout 6-7 players of Canada´s team could play in NHL.
Finland´s players looked like an ass at this game. I promise to eat my hat if Canada don´t win gold medal in this tournament.

amen !
Not that Crosby is a bad player, but this is coming from a guy who is quite close to Crosby's complexion (5'10", wish I was 190 lbs :lol )

There is.

Sutter is a good Canadian coach, and he thinks Crosby is a bad Canadian player (too small and too light).

He prefers to give the better players more ice time.

It is that simple.

This has degenerated into one of the most ridiculous threads ever. Crosby hasn't been benched and he hasn't been playing poorly. What the hell have you guys been watching? If, in fact, you've been watching the games at all. Crosby is leading the tournament in goals as a 17 year old. He's a threat practically every time he steps on the ice. The fact Sutter kept Crosby off a couple of power plays against Finland had more to do with wanting to getting Dawes and Stewart going before the medal round than anything Crosby is or isn't doing. A previous poster said it best. Some of you guys overanalyze. And enough with the Crosby vs. Ovechkin crap. They're both good. That much is obvious to any one with half a brain.

No one is comparing the two, at least in this thread yet. I don't.

however, I m just sick and tired after every time Crosby on ice, the commentators won't stop praising his "phenomena" etc.
