GDT: Germany Vs Canada

[NyQuil]

Canada is lucky there is no relegation this year

I don't think anyone is lucky that a global pandemic has affected sporting events.

 

[Tomas W]

Sweden vs Canada in the relegation round.

Edit: oh..no relegation, I forgot. A pity.

 

[McDrailers]

Half of them? Aren't half of them NHL players, followed by soon-to-be stars like Perfetti and Power?

Danforth will be playing for the CBJ next year, too.

Jack Johnson is a NHL player. Doesnt mean team USA should have called him

Canadians better start taking things seriously at the start of the game.

 

[Lambo]

half our roster could have been replaced with high level AHL guys. Not really sure why Bobby Lou didn’t go after guys who were familiar with the big ice surface. Luke Adam, Eric O’dell, etc

16 NHL Guys!

 

[Edenjung]

Now i have to run down my street only wearing my jersey...

 

[canswetoxic]

The Canadian roster isn't great and all but the team should've be able to score more than 2 goals in 3 games .

Excuses.
These german players wouldn't even made into this Canadian team roster.

McDavid will appear like Jesus when Edmonton gets sweeped

He could share a jet with Drai

[Antiillafire]

I’m sorry but I’ve seen enough. Reichel > Perfetti

Bring Nurse and Kahun while you're at it!

A bunch of grinders and kids.

Good learning experience.

Some North American hockey fans are funny. First they say top European leagues are weaker than AHL. Then they send a team of mid-6 NHL players, lose to European teams and then say: Oh we didn't have top NHLers

Couldn’t have said it any better

 

[Cruor]

Seider looked like a seasoned pro out there. Impressive.

Well Seider and Reichel are recent first round picks. There's a decent chance they end up better than most if not all of this Canadian roster.

In the end if a team doesn't score on 2 full two miute 5 on 3 powerplays there must be something very wrong with the coaching and the effort.

This! It’s always boasting about “even a Quebec only Z-Team would compete for gold”

But Germany almost a DEL-Team.
It's not that bad for the much-mocked DEL.

 

[Zamboni Parade]

German players being interviewed atm seem really into this tournament. Great to see, I was kinda worried about how motivated they'd be playing this weird edition in front of empty stands.

 

[Hiukafen]

Jets are definitely ready for that.

I don't know what you want to hear.

This team looks worse on paper than the one we sent to the last Olympics.

Canada probably would have been better off icing a european league team with a proper camp.

They just don't know much about hockey outside of their own bubble, meaning those are just some preconceived opinions based on the sense of complete superiority to lesser hockey nations.

So this is good for learning
