GDT: Gold Medal Game | Canada vs. Russia

[admire]

looool....great penalty to take

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

ror please stay in colorado PLEAAAASEEE

 

[Callista Rhian]

Damn Russia is getting SLOPPY

 

[canadianmagpie]

Too many men lol

Probably the best sustained pressure by Russia and they're the ones taking the penalty!

 

[Zybalto]

Coaching fail....

Russians finally have some cycle time and a tired Canadian unit and too many men penalty?

 

[Sentinel]

Wow, russia still doesn't have a shot on goal this period. Has that ever happened to them?

They actually had a couple. They just weren't credited.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

And then you look at all the guys that aren't in the tourney. Canada could probably enter another team and still win gold.

It is general consensus, that if Canada puts up two teams, they'll both play the final against each other. I'd even go as far as to say three teams.

top 6

Can A - Can B
Can C - Schweden - Russia - US

 

[Fabs]

Geez. Russia finally has a good shift and does that.

 

[Canucks LB]

uh nevermind

I saw that

 

[Daisy Jane]

Holtby is #2, Bernier definitely doesn't crack my top 3

Holtby's Canadian?
wow. i just learned something new. I don't know why I thought he was from the States.

 

[Aceonfire*]

lol he meant to say that he himself has 1 IQ

Seriously. Some posters just look to hate on the Oilers for no reason.

Cherry pick? He was coming out of the box off a penalty.

Low IQ? Feeds a pass to Seguin that nearly scores.

 

[FVM]

Canada is playing amazing hockey. So ****ing beautiful, I get goosebumps here. Big Red Machine, version 2015.

 

[doubledown99]

I seriously have a mancrush on Barrie, Does the kid ever make a bad pass?, So damn patient with the puck also.

While Hamhuis and burns will get a ton of the credit on the back end (as they should).

barrie has been imo the standout D-man this tourney, just a hell of a hockey player.

I've also loved Barrie. Great dman. I do think Burns and Hamhuis have been slightly better but it's close. Barrie's passing and offensive IQ is impressive

 

[stokes84]

Fun to watch. Almost like the dream team in '92. Just so much high end skill from top to bottom.

 

[Pandaman11]

uh nevermind

You were quick to edit...

 

[An Argument For]

Holtby is #2, Bernier definitely doesn't crack my top 3

Definitely.

Price.
Holtby.
Luongo is still legit.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

That Russian girl in the stands they just showed is so damn cute

 

[McYoungGuns]

Seriously. Some posters just look to hate on the Oilers for no reason.

Low IQ? Feeds a pass to Seguin that nearly scores.

dw man , he thought it was basketball

 

[Tripod]

Giroux coming up massive when it matters. What a monster game so far.

Hopefully this will end people thinking he is only an offensive player.

Giroux is probably the top defensive player from the elite guys.

 

[Pandaman11]

I don't think any Canadians hate Crosby.

Where did I say Canadians?

 

[Hemsky001]

Hats off to Team Canada. Their skill is incredible.

it's the Olympic team playing their own game you know

 

[ItWasJustified]

This might be the best outing for Crosby all year. He's just flying out there.

Well he has teammates who can play hockey. Unlike his situation in Pittsburgh...And Rutherford will just continue to slaughter that team in the years to come.

 

[Like Wall]

Canada is so lame at PP. It hurts to watch.

 

[DrunkPerrinFan]

I wonder, is this tournament a fluke or a sign of things to come? Have canadian players started caring about this tournament and we can expect to see this every year from now on?
