This honestly looks like a badly coached team with effort against a horribly coached team without effort.
Canada's talent will probably come through in the end but it's insane that Germany is still in the game after all these penalties.

Yeah Canada’s system has been terrible. Even with these players they should probably still play better. Don’t fault all the guys cause many of them have given an effort but overall the way they play isn’t working. Their powerplay strategy is horrendous.
 
I really wanted Rieder to score there because well a) I'm a german and b) it would have been fun to make a pun about Rieder destroying 2 canadian teams. First he made the Oilers lose the playoffs, then he scored a shorty on Team Canada
 
Canadian PP is what I imagine a PP would look like if players would shoot the puck every time when a fan screams shoot in the stands
 
I do not feel any negativity towards all these young Canadians who are here at this tournament, They were asked and stepped up, I would like to know the names of all those who said they wouldn't represent Canada.
Plenty of other nations are missing players, no excuses. Even lower ranked nations such as us, are missing all our (limited) NHLers. I’m surprised by our Slovak league youngsters looking better than recent high NHL picks. If anything this shows that European leagues are much better than many North Americans think.
