nice pass by kadri to hodgson

 

[DenisSamson3]

European fans are great! A happy bunch I must say. They cheer for the sake of the atmosphere. Similar to soccer. Chanting songs and stuff. Sometimes when I travel to watch games in North American cities it's silent after being scored on. Like a depressed state.

 

[Budddy]

Nice pass from Kadri....

Sucks for Slovakia. They had a very good stretch of play there and then Canada scores on a rather innocent looking play.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

uneventful PP

 

[Indicate]

[Win One Before I Die]

Yeah bieksa

 

[LeafsMonster]

Bieksa! You could feel a goal coming.

[Budddy]

Shots are going in....way to go boys

 

[tucker3434]

[Indicate]

Really broke it open late.

better late than never

 

[Budddy]

Scrivens played well today

 

[begbeee]

Meh, I don't care. This Slovak team is "C". Not the best on best.
:sarcasm

 

[Win One Before I Die]

Little worried there, maybe the team found its identity. Scrivens held the fort when it was needed.

 

[Indicate]

mvp should have gone to ward

 

[rasarhdasd]

Marincin player of the game for Slovakia? Awesome to hear.

 

[DenisSamson3]

Good game for Ward. I'm happy for him. Also enjoyed watching Slovakia play.

 

[Hesher]

Just like I said yesterday I can't fault the effort. Hopefully the results will come in the games we need to win.

 

[Territory]

Meh, I don't care. This Slovak team is "C". Not the best on best.
:sarcasm

It's true though.

Still a good hockey game.

 

[slovakiasnextone]

Marincin player of the game for Slovakia? Awesome to hear.

His mistake lead to the 2-1 Canada goal though.

 

[Scotty B]

Thought it was kinda a tentative/ scrambly start to 3rd period by Canada...But all's well that ends well.

Turris and Schenn both looked good...Nice snipe by Hodgson... MacK seems to be trying to do too much at times...quite understandable for an 18 year old who has to be affected by all the press he's getting

Scrivens looked good...nothing wrong with Reimer last game either, but I like the former going forward as his rebound control is better...ditto his glove...

To be fair to Slovaks... Canada had more of the puck luck this game, although our Boyz were certainly better overall and fully deserved the win...
