GDT: Pre-tournament • Dec. 21 • Canada vs. Czech Republic

[John Agar]

We can adapt, it's our game

Sure, we don't bully them anymore the same way, but using our skill and non-stop forecheck has the same effect.

It's about breaking their will.

And some superior goaltending doesn't hurt either...

Nice save by the way on that break away... stood his ground... easy...

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

Nice save. I have zero concerns about our goaltending and I haven't had that in years.

Luckily we'll likely have Hart next year too.

 

[jj cale]

Jost is good.....................very good.

 

[snipes]

Just dominating in the offensive zone.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Strome and Dubois buzzing and coming close

 

[John Agar]

Jost reminds me of Brian Little... and Little is good...

 

[McYoungGuns]

As soon as our eyes open, 1972 Summit Series.

for the kids born after 2010 this is played over and over (clockwork orange style)



)have to have the pride drilled in early )

 

[Mighty Makar]

Just dominating in the offensive zone.

Yep! That was a treat to watch.

 

[jj cale]

That Joseph is really growing on me, always buzzing and competes hard.

what in the holy **** is this commercial on TSN right now.

**** off Nike.

Best goaltending we've had in years, I haven't felt this calm and relaxed about our goalies in forver.

I know how good Hart and Ingram are, these two are the real deal. Add in the effort and team first approach these kids are playing with, it's good to see.

Sweden likely is the only team with more skill than us, but if we play our way with 100% team effort, we can beat them.

 

[Tripod]

Keep our foot on their throats. This is about playing our game, bury them.

Wave after wave.

Wave after wave is exactly it.

TC has shot themselves in the foot in previous years by not taking good player. That's an advantage Canada has had...good depth. Then to take "muckers" lessens that gap. Take skill and speed and keep coming in waves keeping teams on their heels.

That was brutal.

As soon as they reach the age of awareness (3-4ish), videos of the 1972 Summit Series, 2010 Gold, 2014 Gold are to be shown to the next generation .

Hockey is Canada. It is who we are.

 

[chunkylover53]

Yeah wtf were they thinking with that nike ad?

have to agree , its going to be tough for the coaching staff to pick between hart and ingram , especially after the breakaway attempts in this game , but then you see how calm Hart is as well.... tough choice

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

That Barzal pass was a high skill play.

Wave after wave is the Canadian way (see 2010, 2014, 2015 WHC, 2016 WHC, 2016 WC). Non-stop forecheck and pressure on the other teams D. Relentless wave after wave, break them.

doesnt seem fair , 3-4 years without knowing you're from the greatest nation out there ???

Both can handle #1 duties. I literally don't have a single concern about our goaltending and it's been forever since I've had that.

Mentioned it last game.......................aggravating as hell isn't it?

 

[Thebesthockey]

[Sens of Anarchy]

That Barzal pass was a high skill play.

Best hands of the forwards imo

Maybe we indoctrinate earlier? In the womb? Headphones over moms belly.
