GDT: Group A - February 17 - Canada (2) vs Czech Republic (3) SO

[JackFr]

Gragnani and Goloubef with some very unfortunate turnovers... Gotta tighten it up in the 2nd.

 

[NeoCanuck]

It seems 5 years ago people generally agreed he was very good, and now I've seen more people disliking him in the last year or so, way more than ever before. To call him totally horrible is baffling to me.

Ray Ferraro is the hockey dad for all of Canada.

 

[Captain Bowie]

I suspect it's because more people are voicing their feelings about him?

But it's all cool, not everyone likes the same things. There will always be some people who like or dislike anyone in media type jobs, there will never be 100% agreement.

It's just as baffling to me that anyone doesn't think he's totally horrible.

Who do you like instead, in terms of colour guys?

 

[NeoCanuck]

Is it just me, or are there four former Vancouver Canucks on the first unit power play for the Canadians?

This entire team is basically former Canuck legends.

 

[Get North]

All these Canadian teams play the same way. Same as the World Junior team in 2015 and 2017. Same as those WHC teams. Every little thing is the same for these teams.

*glass breaks*

BAH GAWD WHAT'S BYRON RITCHIE DOING ON THE POINT ON THE POWER PLAY

 

[PG Canuck]

welp

 

[Polar Vortex]

Scrivens has horrible puck awareness. No wonder he's not in the NHL anymore.

 

[Captain Bowie]

2-2??? What happened?

 

[ShameOnYouZidlicky]

This Canadian defense gives the puck away way too often. I think Noreau is the only guy without a blatant turnover so far.

You're going back too far. These are Gillis era flops, not Nonis era flops. Needs more Jeff Tambellini.

 

[jj cale]

They will have to think hard about scrivens going forward, hate to throw the poor guy under the bus but we have games we have to win here.

That certainly wasn't all his fault but.........................

 

[PG Canuck]

This has been some good hockey.

 

[McDonald19]

It's on NBCSN now. Figure skating is done...

 

[NeoCanuck]

You're going back too far. These are Gillis era flops, not Nonis era flops. Needs more Jeff Tambellini.

 

[Captain Bowie]

Need some Wolski magic right now.

 

[jj cale]

On defense there is some real lazy low i.q plays by our guys tonight, gotta clean that horseshit up right now.

 

[GloveSaveFuhr]

Meed more Hodgson and O'Brien. Volpatti for the hell of it.

 

[Captain Bowie]

Canada pressuring right now, but no luck.

 

[Territory]

Some nice puck possession by Canada.

 

[Jablkon]

common coaches, show us some B plan.

 

[Captain Bowie]

Hodgson retired a couple years ago. My Hodgson jersey will never be worn again.

 

[leafsfuture]

Why is Brule on the top line???

 

[jj cale]

common coaches, show us some B plan.

It doesn't look like you really need one, the czechs have been pretty good and the game plan is solid.
