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

[brendan smith]

Hockey gods are just getting Stutzle ready for what life is gonna be like with the senators.

I agree. He is getting ready... To turn that franchise from rebuild mode to playoff contender.

He through the entire weight of that shorthanded squad on his shoulders tonight and looked like the 2nd coming of McJesus!

He was Resilient, Persistent and showed a lot of character tonight.

Kids a shoe-in for the Hart one day.

Are the German players laughing about this game? To me there was a lot more going on tonight than just Canada v Germany.
Why did some of our guys work so hard to run up the score?

They didn’t. Could have been a 25 goals game if they wanted to.

Their goalie was horrible. Should have been a 10-2 games. Canada scored many goals on what should have been routine saves.

 

[ORRFForever]

Can we please stop talking about the goal differential?

 

[Ginger Papa]

The funny thing is that Stutzle likely missed out on the real dark Ottawa days. They won’t be too bad once he arrives, and he will help them improve.

Really excited for him to join your young core. Hopefully MM can get his game back as well.

Just calling out a dumb argument.

This wasn’t a blowout because:
- It’s Canada vs Germany
- Germany played games with just 14 players two nights in a row
- Germany’s goalies had a combined .500 SV%.

It’s because Canadian players thought they should have been drafted over one German.

Makes sense.

What Canadian players think they should have been drafted over Stutzle? Where did Holloway, Mercer, and Schneider say "I think I should have went 3rd overall". I'd love to see that quote.

Again, you just sound really insecure about Stsuzle's standing. Obviously Germany had no chance going into the game, no need to get worked up about it

What would you rather talk about?

Nah it's clearly a conspiracy to punish players drafted third or higher. Third overall Stutzle suffers the utter humiliation of an unprecedented and unpredictable blowout from vengeful Canadians. Dach has his arm literally ripped off by Russians who were foaming at the mouth. Canadians won't even pass Byfield the puck or finish off his passes, hence his lack of points against Germany. Lafreniere, Hughes, and Kakko all knew that they wouldn't make it through one game unscathed and stayed home.

Think about it. It makes a lot more sense than team Canada going through the motions and pounding shorthanded Germany.

Because goal differential matters?

If you dont want to get scored on 16 times, find a goalie who can stop a beachball.

Im a Jets fan Gpaps. So i dont think Stutzle will be joining us anytime soon

But, never say never because (unpopular opinion alert) I would trade Laine for him in a heartbeat.

I think you’ve misread the thread. I was specifically replying to a poster who said that Canada ran up the score to “prove a point” to Stuetzle because some players didn’t think he should have gone #3.

I said that was a dumb perspective that is extremely unlikely to be true. There is likely no Canadian player who thinks they should have been picked above him, and even if they did, draft position had zero to do with the score of this game.

 

[ORRFForever]

You have a point.

Still... there has to be something.

 

[Machinehead]

That's the worst goaltending performance I've ever seen in hockey.

D’oh, missed that, I knew @Darcy Loewen was a Sens fan & hit your Multi quote to add in another comment. I’ll edit.

We can discuss our greatest fears if you like.

 

[Dack]

That's the worst goaltending performance I've ever seen in hockey.

If both teams had Levi in net Canada probably tries harder and ends up only winning this 8-2 or so. It was like watching Junior B goalies.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Don't understand why Byram's getting so much ice time when he looks like T.J. Brennan out there

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

As a life long Canadian hockey fan I'm left both embarrassed and humiliated tonight. Not a good look at all. On the team and as hosts.

Disguting.

Well if you have no chance of losing the game and he's supposed to be one of your bigger players, it seems like a good idea to try and get the kinks out.

[snipes]

How did that Caufield not score? Ahh replay showed an Austrian got his stick in there, good defensive play.

Big hit by Kleven

Edit: this should be in the USA v Austria GDT.

We can only hope you’ll recover

Okay... You first.

Wrong thread.

If God created the universe who created God? And what about gravity? If this a digital projection of my physical self how am I even breathing?

 

[Langdon Alger]

Okay... You first.

Honestly, heights would be my greatest fear. Now you go.
