cmon foudy..................wide open net. You will only get that so many times, you have to capitalize.

I’d like to see Byfield drive the net once in a while with that size and speed. Seems like he’s always going around the net or dropping it back when he rushes the puck.

 

[jj cale]

Pretty good game so far, both teams skating and passing well, moving that puck around, some nice physicality.

 

[Kamiccolo]

So can someone ELI5 where these players are from? Like is this U17 or something from every country? How "important" is this tourney? Do we see top prospects here all the time?

 

[jj cale]

Not much happened on that Russian p.p. good job.

 

[snipes]

Couple good chances in close there

Yeah, significantly less effective than he's supposed to be with his set of tools.

Canada really amping up the physicality and controlling the play.

Askarov has been solid early.

 

[jj cale]

Good Russian team, today will be a tough one. Canada had it's chances but no dice.

Quiet period from Perfetti, needs to get unleashed.

 

[Kamiccolo]

What? That's a "shot"? lmfao

 

[snipes]

Stupid play by the Russian shooting the puck on net after the buzzer. Even if it was just a tap.

PP to start the second. I thought we controlled the play especially when the boys started laying big hits and playing the relentless Canadian way.

Askarov has been as advertised, he’s made some big saves.

 

[Dominance]

What? That's a "shot"? lmfao

Definitively, yes. The player’s stick propelled the puck directly toward the net. That’s what a shot is.

Worthy of a penalty? This is trash hockey.

That’s a penalty at any level of hockey.

Trash hockey? Are you confused?

 

[jj cale]

No, it's called a penalty.

 

[snipes]

Byfield!!!!

1-1

 

[jj cale]

He seems o.k to me.

Goal, Byfield.

Looks foggy at ice level

Looks foggy at ice level

Very cloudy indeed.

p.p coming up.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Soft one

 

[Daximus]

Bad play by Poirer there... gotta keep him to the outside.

 

[jj cale]

Nice work bu the Russian player but cmon Garand, very stoppable.

 

[Erikfromfin]

Seppälä is crap... I wish there had been Simontaival or Tuomaala on Rätys and Lamberts wing

 

[jj cale]

Kuzman gooning it up, would be nice to make him pay for that.
