GDT: Gold Medal Game - February 25 - Russia vs Germany

[PG Canuck]

Biggest whirlwind I’ve ever been on

 

[Filppula]

Can't believe this.

 

[Summer Rose]

Whyyyyyyyyyyy

 

[Albatros]

Dumb Germans. They lost their patience.

This, instead of playing it safe they tried a normal power play and it cost them everything.

 

[Fantomas]

I don't understand why Znarok did not take a timeout when Germany went up 3-2. He is an awful coach and simply got lucky here.

 

[danron1376]

was the fault of the german defenseman for taking the shot that got blocked and got the puck out

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Why would you ever dump it in on a powerplay and give up possession when you need to play keepaway.

 

[EdJovanovski]

One of the best gold medal games of all time

 

[Alex K]

Gusev is the man on a mission

 

[Henderson33]

I'm honestly so proud of both of these teams, all of them actually. This is what is so fun about these Olympics, nobody was the clear favorite and it made for fantastic, dramatic, games. May the best man win!

 

[TLEH]

Why were they playing that PP to take a shot or even letting Russia touch the puck??? Christ idiots.

Yeah. That shot by Seidenberg was just a bad decision.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

That's what happens when you're a chicken without a head in that sequence

 

[Firsov99]

Congratz to Russia - that was a bold move ... and it paid of.

They had no choice but to take the risk.

 

[Osprey]

This German goaltender plays so deep in his crease. He barely even challenged Gusev.

 

[Gnome17]

55 seconds away from winning the gold, with a powerplay.
If Germany doesnt win that will sting...

 

[Stive Morgan]

Absolutely brutal finish by the Germans. No reason to dick around like that on the powerplay. Didn't need to take those shots.

 

[Cloned]

This game reminds me of why I miss Cuthbert. His Muller call and his Gusev call were AMAZING, spine tingling really.

 

[FlareKnight]

Well this remains interesting.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Most insane game ever wow.

 

[Yarborough]

I just don’t want this to end with a fluke shootout

 

[Sam Spade]

1:3o am on the east coast and this is the number one Twitter trend right now:

#OARvsGER

I am so tired right now but how could I possibly go to sleep?

 

[PenDuhNotPittsburgh]

Very disappointing power play lol

Germans only have to blame themselves

 

[BerSTUzzi]

Hell of a game though....

 

[Stive Morgan]

This game reminds me of why I miss Cuthbert. His Muller call and his Gusev call were AMAZING, spine tingling really.

Him and Gord Miller are my favourites. So energetic and passionate.

 

[Canuckistani]

And here I thought Germany would be happy with a silver.

They won't be now.
