GDT: Gold Medal Game | USA vs Canada | 1/5 @ 9:30PM ET| TSN/NHLN

Hold on, Canadians are having a hissy fit over this? good grief, as a player you should always have the expectation of winning and playing well

Him saying Canada hasn't faced a real test yet is the part where goes off the plot to me. I love that he said it though, add some juice to it. I appreciate someone so confident they can be wrong with that much conviction.

I think Canada has a good chance to win tomorrow and have to be the favourites.

5 0n 5 favours Canada heavily, and I think Levi has been significantly better than Knight over the course of the tournament. Only place I really think the US has an advantage is at special teams and the tournament has been reffed fairly Laissez-faire.

But its a BO1, anything can happen.

There is no favorites right now, each team have equal chance in my opinion.

Most close competition ive ever seen in this mondial since 2017

Lol.. at folks talking about "extra motivation" in a Gold Medal game..

Yeah, if you need extra motive in the final game of your tournament, you're not gonna make it. lol

I am sure Canada is going to try EXTRA EXTRA EXTRA EXTRA hard now that Zegras said that.

Canada was only going to try 70% before, and win 4-3. But now they are going to try 95% and win 6-2.

 

[topshelf15]

I like Zegras,and like his confidence...I wouldnt want a player to say anything different TBH

 

[John Agar]

You don't be talking about the Hip like that, they are a god damn national treasure!

I couldn't give two shits about maple syrup but come on.

New Orleans is sinking... man...

 

[The Kingslayer]

Man lets go already. The hell is up with this late ass start time.

Either team could win, but the smart money is on canada

You are gonna get what you ask for buddy!

 

[Hooz]

People who never played competitive sports will tell you that it’s not true and they don’t care lol

Exactly. Like they weren’t motivated for this game already?

Doesn't matter what Zegras said, he's obviously backed up his words this tournament. But I hope Canada uses it for some extra fire, if I was coach I would have that interview playing on loop in the locker room right now.

 

[novisor]

They beat Finland (who were better than Sweden) and Russia. Germany, Slovakia & Switzerland > Austria. Oh and they also beat the Czech Republic. Not really sure what else Canada has to do to “be tested.”

This. Canada has played and beaten every relevant team the Americans have, minus Sweden.

 

[Math the wild rose]

This matchup always gives me anxiety.

Nervosity should be acurate

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

you have to understand he is a typical American,

Ain’t that the truth!

 

[jj cale]

Yeah, if you need extra motive in the final game of your tournament, you're not gonna make it. lol

Pissed off is always a good motivator.

 

[JPeeper]

If Canada hasn't played a "real" team, have they?

It's funny because the States squeak by Russia and Finland in their games while Canada straight dom'd both of them into submission in theirs. Canada hasn't played a "real" team because everyone else in this tournament is a joke in comparison, literally everyone.

 

[bsu]

I can't believe a chirp triggered so many Canadians, it's hockey. GO USA!!!!

 

[HolyCrap]

Can we all just agree Canada has better beer. I mean that’s what matters most.

 

[Skolman]

you have to understand he is a typical American,

What are the traits of a typical American?

 

[The Blue Baron]

New Orleans is sinking... man...

I’m gonna pull out on the Hip for intermissions!

“Yeah I’m going to see my highway girl............yeah,she just got back from around the world....”

i missed it. What did he say?

We already not only poked the Bear... we skewered it and cooked it and ate it last night...

Now it's Elephant tonight... or is it Donkey... It's so confusing...
