GDT: Gold Medal Game • Jan. 5 • Canada vs. Russia • Part V (Mod warning in OP)

Godla for days. He is up there with Conz!

 

[Exastick]

I thought Reinhart was better than Domi all around. That being said, it was VERY close and Domi played a very good game by playing on the edge but not really taking tons of dumb penalties. Agitated the opponents, drew penalties, had skill, drive and chemistry on rushes, and wasn't afraid to put his body down for the team. Both very good players, and jealous of Buffalo and Arizona.

Give the Russians their medals and let them go. Why patronize them?

its always like that. its the world jrs. I always say I feel bad for the loser in this tournament. least in the nhl they can leave quicker

This just in: Nurse is a giraffe

 

[Prntscrn]

Dude, they do it for best F/D/G and Domi won best F

Yeah. But Godla got MVP too.

 

[IHaveNoCreativity]

This game was certainly a classic.

 

[Quinning]

"can you believe it?!?!"

cause of the fact! Kulipkin! Iced the paak!

 

[KPower]

Congratulations Canada! Best team this year.

 

[RattsSSV]

Well deserved. Great game Russia.

 

[CH25]

I have to say Canada did NOT deserve to win that game... they had what, 4 shots in the 3rd? Russians just kept bringing it but it wasn't enough for Canada's defense

This mentality is ****ed. It's not all about the shots...

 

[Novak Djokovic]

Strongly disagree. That was a well reffed game, imo.

Disagree. Period 2 and Period 3? Sure. Period 1? Hell no. They let go of several Russian infractions when Canada was up 2-0. Much easier to make calls against a team that is up.

 

[Matt24]

Reinhart was better than Domi but who really cares? It's a pointless award that made for a nice moment considering where the game was being played.

 

[DFC]

Hopefully someday those Russian kids will be able to be proud of that effort. One of the best games of hockey I've ever seen purely because of the guts they showed.

 

[BlitzSnipe]

Nice, the players hugged each other. Respect! Canada and Russia - the world's best!

 

[777]

Strongly disagree. That was a well reffed game, imo.

Agreed. Refs can never win on HF that's for sure

 

[DeYarmond Edison]

Right. You could literally hear the pain in the announcers voices trying to say something good about someone not from Canada.

 

[karnige]

This mentality is ****ed. It's not all about the shots...

Russia played better in the 2nd half. Canada was up so big they definitely took their foot off the pedal.

 

[Weast]

Agreed. Refs can never win on HF that's for sure

agree +2

 

[KCC]

This just in: Nurse is a giraffe

lol. Damn good skating giraffe then. Played an amazing game.

 

[OilyPaperBag]

Nurse should get to know his NHL teamate McDavid

Probably true

 

[Gormo]

Well gratz to the gold Canada and see you next year! i am all retering from this forum until next WHJ! take care guys !

Thanks, I remember living in Sweden as a kid, great country.

 

[scotian1]

Players showing great sportsmanship going thru the line. Nothing is better that Canada vs Russia.

didnt deserve to win? so you just ignore the 5 goals they scored?
