GDT: Group A • Dec. 26 • Canada vs. Slovakia

[ThrashersfanSVK]

Unfortunately, that's all. Bondra is also worth to watch.

Sukeľ might be a surprise of this tournament.

EDIT: in the Slovak team, of course. I don't mean he will be one of the top scorer, but he might be something like Richard Mraz in Alberta 2012.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

3-2 Slovakia.

 

[Stats01]

6-4 Canada

Morrisey, 1 goal 2 assist
Petan, 4 assist
McDavid 2 goals, 2 assist

goaltending is a weak spot but I'll eat a shoe if Slovakia scores 4

Anything can happen, but I'm very confident in this team's both defensive and offensive play and I disagree that goaltending is a weak spot this year. I'm pretty confident in both Comrie and Fucale, even though even I think Jarry could've been on the team, but that's HC's decision and I respect that.

Anyway, respect for Slovakia, still among the relatively best with a 5-6 milion population?



GO CANADA GO

 

[Czech Yourself Pal]

It's really shame Dano is too old. But I hope slovakian players will perform a brave struggle. I think it won't be so easy for Canada how most of people thikn.

You're right, Slovakia has given Canada fits in the last 2 meetings.

[izzy]

I think Theodore is going to dominate this game.

 

[ATBLeafsTyler]

I think Theodore is going to dominate this game.

Agreed.

Him and Fabbri I think will have good games. Just a random call lol.

I think Fabbri could be one of those Canada surprises we see every year.

 

[fmrdh]

6-0 Can

 

[Johnny Canucker]

5-0 canada.

Kassian-2
Horvat -2
Virtanen-1

 

[Alerion]

Reway scares me. I'm calling 6-2 but it's close for a very long time until Canada pours it on at the end. Similar to the Switzerland game on the 23rd.

 

[landy92mack29]

9-1 Canada. mcdavid 4 pts

 

[DyerMaker66*]

Feel the same way. Bottom 6 just looks poopy, imo (besides Virtanen).

If McDavid takes this tournament over, though, we win.

I'm not a fan of our goaltending either.

 

[PecnoTrunk]

Im going to ALL the games....Will be there tonight and all others....cant wait for the USA-CAN game

By the way, Canada needs to dominate today...what im scared of is the following...if Canada dominates all their opponent, how will they prepare themselves for an opponent like the USA ??

Canada plays Finland on the 29th, pretty good opponent and then the US two days later.

 

[chunkylover53]

So I finally got a chance to look at the roster... and well guess I should be surprised at some of the picks...but knowing TC, I'm no longer surprise by the decisions anymore...

 

[ecemleafs]

is nhl.com streaming this game too?

 

[Bad News Benning]

heard they changed up the PP units. Anyone know what they will look like?

 

[Novak Djokovic]

Can Finland donate one of their goalies to us?

 

[irunthepeg]

So excited for this game.

Mark Masters @markhmasters

Canada tried out some different PP combos today w one interesting one being Morrissey-Lazar at the point w Domi-McDavid-Duclair

11:27 PM - 25 Dec 2014


Personally I think they will go with Domi-Reinhart-Duclair and Petan-McDavid-Lazar, but who knows both are dangerous as hell

 

[HopefulCoach]

Any streams? I cant get TSN Go and Telus to work right now and I am about to punch baby kittens
