Don't you start stirring up trouble where there is none CB.

If you're comfortable playing in the finals with a guy 'like this'.. then I'm cool with it...

When It comes to Canadian goaltending I have to become comfortable with anything.

It's a discipline........much like Tai chi.

It really annoys me that there is a board ad for the WJAC in Camrose and yet Hockey Canada hasn’t updated their website with any reference to the upcoming tournament whatsoever

I'm obviously kidding.

We've been reduced to an organization now with goaltending where last year at the WJC we picked our goalie by bowing to the demands of a teenager who said......" if you want me to be your guy you gotta play me every game"

Let's see what you got first attitude not required.

And they went for it........................can you f***ing believe that?

The HC website is really subpar.

Pretty bland period from everyone on Canada

This is why I say exhibition means nothing.. I think Canada smoked them 10-1 in exhibition.

Now they are going into the third period 3-1. It's a good achievement for the Slovaks. Glad they are keeping it close. They score early in third and watch out.

Be gone with that period.

Pedestrian evening from Mckenna.

No people in the crowd, some games aren't televised, statistics aren't working correctly.. my goodness this is a shame Canadian organisation is embarrassing Please bring back this tournament to Europe.

Yeah but by doing that there would be less opportunities to dump on Hockey Canada, don't think that would fly with much of the hockey public.

They've boxed themselves into a corner i'm afraid.

Schaefer is a beast

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Slovaks, not Slovakians. C'mon Dustin Nielson

 

[ORRFForever]

That 5-hole was huge!

 

[BigRangy]

Hehe, love the ice ninja with the follow cam on the penalty shot

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Penalty shot denied on Desnoyers, nice blocker save there. Canada pouring it on but not getting it past the goalie.

 

[jj cale]

Back to playing good hockey, let's get something to show for it.

Slovaks, not Slovakians. C'mon Dustin Nielson

Thank you!! I hate when people say this haha

The lack of crowd really kills it, feels like f***ing covid era all over again.

If this is going to be played in Canada bring it to Atlantic Canada.

The Slovaks look pretty damn mediocre despite the score.

Really good goaltending, should be much worse.

The Slovaks apparently also have a teenager coaching teenagers by the looks of him.

Canada needs to rework its offense a bit. Pedestrian evening from a skill standpoint

 

[Czechboy]

That was ridiculous!

 

[Czechboy]

Pradel in the Prdel.... konec

Slovaks can blame this comment for those last two goals

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Feel for the young man on that one, pulled right after is going to make that really stew in his brain.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Roberto Leonardo Henriquez.. Been following Slovakia since their independence and that would be a unique name for them. Dominican Republic, represent!!

 

[jj cale]

A slovak player with a latin name? that's a first.
