Virtanen obsession this thread is... the whole team is playing like garbage.. I'd put majority of fowards in tje same category as virtanen this game

 

[BlueSaint]

What's that bald dude running around for? He must be auditioning for something....

Looking for Harry Potter.

 

[Lehner]

Chabot has been terrible this period, wtf happened :\

 

[The Winter Soldier]

I don't like to second guess coaching. But I will be interested in Lowry's comments about his player selection today.

 

[Battle Lin]

i dont know how mcleod didnt make it over some of these forwards

 

[Tripod]

Hicketts playing bad again

 

[scotian1]

Canada's team is totally disjointed at the moment.

 

[Canuckistani]

Imagine this Canadian team vs Russia or Finland in the QF

Done like dinner

Not even close. Virtanen is easily the worst forward. A negative impact.

 

[bennysflyers16]

How can you shorten your bench and lean heavily on struggling players ?

 

[Striiker]

Lowry tanking for a draft pick.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Right now he's not. Didn't like the pick

No different than Lazar .

Didn't know he was playing... but if you think there is no difference I am not going to waste my time

Hicketts playing bad again

TSN has really been hyping him up this tournament.

 

[The Drop]

Honestly, I was expecting the score to be 5-1 Canada after 30 minutes of play.

Not going to be the case when your skill guys aren't skilled enough

 

[JimboA]

Very low.

The chances are low, and therefore the odds are high.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Whoa, what a save.

 

[Jetlaggedoil]

He isn't yet. He was playing in the AHL before now.

19 NHL games 2 AHL games this season. He's an NHL player this season. Can't be in the AHL for more than a condition assignment, he's either NHL or chl.

This teams positioning and play away from the puck is brutal. Not giving themselves any options.

 

[FlareKnight]

How many terrible clearing attempts has Canada had this game. If you are going to move the puck out of your zone....do it!

 

[LeafsMonster]

Jeez what a pass to JV

 

[shaner8989]

Much better from Virtanen

 

[Mitchy]

how did that not go in?

It's crazy, I don't think I've ever seen people critize literally every thing one player does while completely ignoring the rest of the team

 

[BlitzSnipe]

WHAT????? That was insane!

 

[BertCorbeau]

Crouse is having a good game

I think it's the ice time he gets, clearly not working yet coach won't adjust
