GDT: Gold Medal Game • Jan. 5 • 8:00 PM ET • 02:00 CET • III (Mod warning in OP)

[Novak Djokovic]

No that can't be true, the refs are out to get them

You still haven't answered my question.

 

[FirewagonChange]

This is biblical when you're a fan of another country

 

[Wilma]

Bowie, in particular, has been SO bloody terrible tonight

 

[Kresnik]

Renberg and lindros togrther in the studio epic

 

[Binary Code]

Comrie is not better than Fucale, why would Canada pull him?

 

[xxxx]

Oh, this is tough. But this team is strong, believe!

I BELIEVE FOR A GREAT 3RD PERIOD FROM TEAM CANADA!! GO CANADA!

 

[CH25]

a Powerplay is pretty much a guaranteed goal with this D

 

[Sam Spade]

This is one game where I don't think the refs have anything to do with it.

You can tell they almost DONT want to call anything but Canada is making it so blatant.

 

[hirawl]

Choke job well executed. Russian zone entry is too much for the Canadian system and D.

 

[Jeti]

That period was on Canada's coaching staff putting Gauthier's line out way to much to the detriment of McDavid's ice time. Brutal coaching decision.

Agreed, really weird decision.

My fears about the defense (outside of Morrissey) have all come true.

 

[Del Preston]

Nurse has been our best dman

He made a bad pinch. Gotta take an opportunity to make an old, unfunny Oilers joke.

 

[Bluejaysfan*]

are people actually blaming Virtanen LMFAO

for real? for a CLEAN ****ing hit? these refs are handing the game to the russians, blame them, or our ****y defence.

Goes for a hit where it's questionable if it was clean or not, Russia proceeds to score on penalty and then add 2 more...yeup, as much as Canucks fans hate to hear it, that penalty is a big part of Russia's comeback. It gave them life right as Canada was about to run away with it.

 

[JustGivingEr]

Need some luck to avoid the collapse

Have donned my autographed 2010 Toews Olympic jersey.

We will win now

 

[TootooTrain]

Where the **** are the PPs for Canada? Refs doing their best to tie it up.

Maybe if canada tested russia in the offensive zone on a consistent basis they would get some.

 

[Kamiccolo]

Those penalties were the right calls.

Fucale is terrible. what a terrible player. This is an epic collapse.

Does that mean we can conclude that McDavid and Nurse are bad leaders and players? That's the logic used with the leafs and Kessel and Phaneuf.

 

[Lehner]

Can they sit Bowey this period please?

 

[Scotty B]

WOW what a crazy, frenetic game...that was two periods in one. Our guys been getting outa position, looking for the hit a little too much. Anyway, nice feed by Morrissey to McD and nice finish. Once again Crouse ( damn this 17 year old is good! ) sets up his centre beautifully. Gauthier, where glorious scoring chances go to die! Point nice game thus far. Great game by Duclair, Reinhart and Domi. Again wonderful push back by Russia. Kinda lucky for them, with that last goal off Gauthier's shin.

 

[13 others]

No kidding. Play McJesus more in the 3rd please.

 

[habsterr]

Madison Bowey is complete garbage

 

[Canadian Finn]

Lol Eric Lindros and Mikael Renberg on SVT sounds like to lovers that havent seen echother for years

Big E is on SVT right now?

Awesome.

 

[JayKing]

Can we make Morin-Heatherington a pair since they're not playing abysmal, and leave Bowey-Hicketts for Russia's 4th line? Please?

This.

 

[tmlms13]

McDavid line gets benched, give up 3 goals, McDavid line comes back spends 60 second in Russian zone.

Let him and Lazar kill penalties they will probably score a shorty

 

[YandlesMother]

Good lord my stream kicked out - anybody have a good one?

 

[FLYLine27*]

Russia would be tied or winning right now if they didnt pull their goalie off of 2 unstoppable shots 3 minutes in. Terrible coaching move, he should have just called the time out.

 

[WaltWhitman]

why does James Duthie keep calling North Dakota, " Dakota". Like exclusively.

So weird.
