GDT: Germany Vs Canada | 12/26 @ 6PM ET | TSN/NHLN

[Rob]

Absolutely classless

no classless would be celebrating after ever goal.

 

[kudla]

Is it just me or has Byfield barely played at all?

He is just being respectful

 

[John Agar]

*Canada has a 15 goal lead*
some HFBoarders: what's going on with Byfield bro

And he is the youngest on the team...

 

[Langdon Alger]

Byfield is the only canadian keeping his honor intact here. He's been playing at 30% all game, if everyone did like him the score would be much less embarrassing.

Do the honourable thing and don’t try too hard guys.

 

[Snipes45]

No he’s not. Hell at last glance he wasn’t even capable of playing in the NHL

Somebody is salty right now

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Byram legit has no hockey IQ.

Agree 100%

 

[Lambo]

2019 Canada beat Denmark 14:0 and in QF were end of race. Now .............

 

[jc17]

Fun fact: no one has ever blown a 16-1 lead.

The leafs, however, did blow a 3-1 lead

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Ok does anyone really think Canadian goal differential will matter at all though?

If you don't want them to back off, that's fine. But there's no way the goal differential is relevant anymore

The teams get reseeded after the quarters. So there is a extremely likely scenario of a tie breaker coming into play with the 1st place team from Group B.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Gord Miller said that GF/GA is one of the tie breakers, however it's rarely ever been used.

i also think he's been talking about water purifiers and air fresheners for the last 4 mins

 

[GreatSaveEssensa]

Absolutely classless

Then maybe the German goalie should make a save. In the third all Canadas done is put the puck on net. Not picking corners or anything. Not their fault the goalie is a donut

 

[brendan smith]

IIHF rules stipulate that if a goal is reviewed and deemed to be illegitimate due to a clock discrepancy.

Then, both teams must restart play from the time at which this discrepancy occurred.

In short, both teams will have to play again tomorrow and start from the beginning of the 2nd period.

This is a total troll.

 

[sandysan]

Yeah and playing defence has it's consequences as I mentioned in my post.

I don't see that as "salty" at all which would imply they are upset they are losing... It's practice for the teams that will actually matter.

I don't want to see any kids get embarrassed either but it shouldn't be up to the Canadian players to "let up". If the IIHF has a real problem with it create some sort of mercy rule at a 10 goal differential. Even that would be silly though imo.

Playing defense against a team that has thrown in the towel isn't all that hard nor dangerous. Germany isn't taking runs.

And practicing against decidely outmatched opponents doesn't make you any better becuase you can do the exact opposite of what you are supposed to, and STILL score.

 

[McDrai]

Absolutely classless

Whine some more

 

[Daeni10]

And also as a German I have 0 problem with running up the score. I would rather lose 20-1 while my opponent gives everything than go out 8-0 knowing my opponent played at like 50%. It's a competition and imo the most respect someone can give you is when he is giving it everything he has. As long as you dont celebrate every goal like its the game 7 ot winner its fine

 

[NorCalhockey]

Canada will be a legitimate threat with the US and Mexico within 3-5 years #Hottake

I wouldn’t mind if Canada dethrones Costa Rico/Honduras as the third representative from Concacaf for World Cups.

 

[Maplebeasts]

Fun fact: no one has ever blown a 16-1 lead.

The leafs, however, did blow a 3-1 lead

4-1. If you're gonna chirp, you gotta get your facts straight.

 

[snipes]

16-1. This feels like the kind of result you'd see if Germany was playing Canada in international soccer.

We don’t give a shit about mens soccer in Canada.

Womens soccer is bigger here than mens.

Football (the real NA kind) >>>> Futbol AINEC

 

[Langdon Alger]

Canada even being on the ice right now is classless!

Am I doing this right?

 

[krishiigonzalez]

kinda disrespectful but whatever payback for world war 2

are you really that kind of dumb?

 

[Daeni10]

This is a total troll.

Imagine our guys have to play the 3rd game in 3 days with 14 skaters lmao. That would be a next level troll job from the IIHF

 

[Mandar]

It’s really only 15-1.

 

[nickp91]

Team Canada with the Boxing Day knockout!

 

[Sensinitis]

Canada has more goals than Germany has players lol.

 

[Snipes45]

Canada should have just 1 skate rout there for the last few minutes to show some class
