GDT: May 4 • Canada vs. Czech Republic

[jcbio11]

Canada looks like they mean business this year. No quarterfinal exit this time around. Certainly not the way they're playing. And they're only going to get better.

Also that Giroux to Crosby goal warmed my heart

Alabama Shakes are a good classic-sounding band also. Seen the Sheepdogs live with Monster Truck. Unreal performance.

I've listened to a bit of them as well

We shall see. It's not the first time the last 5 years they have looked good in the group stage.

that might be the hardest hit I've seen the old man throw in all his career.

One of the hardest for sure - he was really fired up tonight...but anyway congratz Canada, you were the better team for most of the time.

Slovakia 2019 so come to it guys

 

[MessierII]

Hopefully they keep this up. No screwing around this year when the going gets tough.

Man I wish I was in O2 right now..

I was there and it was... awesome. The crowd, the arena...exciting, really.

also, what an applause for Sidney Crosby (when the rosters were announced, before the game)

If they beat the Swedes and finish 1st in Group A, they are most likely about to face either Slovakia, Belarus or Denmark in QF. There is no way in hell they would lose to any of those teams.

It gives me internal strife

Fair.

 

[Bures Elbow]

Damnit really regret not going to this in Prague, a gorgeous city with great people.

Waiting for Paris might be too long as who knows if I'll have time.

Yeah...I said that earlier too. I have been to Paris before so not my first choice, but Slovakia would be cool I think...

 

[Cellee]

Switzerland would be cool. If I was a millionaire.

Hmmm. I may plan a Euro trip around the 2018 one. Copenhagen is a gorgeous city and I would love to watch hockey in Europe.

So weird that all the big teams are resting on the same day.. Maybe they all want to watch the Champions League?

"Denmark"?

 

[therealdeal]

Mad props to the Czech crowd during that game. The whole arena was jumping up and down in the last minute when they knew their team had lost the game. That was awesome.

 

[DrunkElkCZ]

I see what you did there ... but we didn't booed Smith when he was announced as the man of the match.

 

[NyQuil]

LOL, Jagr's hilarious.

 

[Stats01]

It's going to be a sad day when Jagr retires. I hope he gets into coaching in the future.
