GDT: Pre-tournament • Dec. 23 • Sweden vs. Canada

[stavs*]

I'm sorry, are you not familiar with running borderline interference to provide a pick between your player and the opposition pursuing player? You should probably familiarize yourself with the concepts of hockey before you start giving out criticism

really because I've played competitive hockey my whole life and never heard of it. I guess you're the genius here so I should believe you right? If you're going to call it something, its interference.

 

[Prntscrn]

Oh yeah just so much awesome to have that guy coach the A team instead.

Yeah.. Hope he's gone before olympics but I doubt it. But it's probably a better fit. I don't think someone with his temper should coach kids

 

[Canucks LB]

This line is just dominating

 

[JFG]

Only good thing about this game is that it is an exhibition game.

 

[John Agar]

Canadian 5 on 5 PP... what the what the

 

[WetcoastOrca]

This is the best i have seen him this year.

His toolkit is going to be huge for canada.

He's played some decent games earlier in the year but hasn't been rewarded offensively.
I know these tourneys don't mean a lot but being a go to guy for Canada and getting some goals could really get his confidence going.

 

[TheGroceryStick]

It looks like there is 6 Canadians in the zone against the Swedes 4. There is no room out there and they are hounding the puck.

 

[ulvvf]

The goalie and d-men is simple to bad, kind of what I feard, and that Grönborg leaves the 2 best d-men out of the team shows to be a mistake. No one is good enough

 

[Territory]

I don't think Nylander has played since the turnover.

Nevermind there he is.

 

[Battle Lin]

marners passing skills are magical

 

[Hockey Crazy]

See I don't know if Marner will be able to do that kinda stuff in the NHL or if he'll get blown up, if he can he'll be great, but it's fun to watch for now.

The thing is that he never panics... he's a smart enough player to know when he needs to adapt.

 

[jdatb]

split marner and strome up already.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Only good thing about this game is that it is an exhibition game.

Sweden is still in "preseason" mode. Incomplete passes, dmen standing around, no urgency with the puck resulting in turnovers, etc

Interference is what it's called when you do it too heavy and get penalized for it. I'll assume you played forward then, it's something defence do much more regularly

 

[canwincup]

These refs are annoying

 

[BertCorbeau]

Dermott having a rough shift here yikes

 

[Alerion]

I was going to comment that Dermott has been solid but that was a brutal giveaway.

 

[Marlander93]

Needs to shoot more though IMO

I think he knows what he's doing lol. His biggest weapon is doing something unexpected. Without that he's just a regular undersized player.

 

[snizzbone*]

Well turning back into your own zone is never a good idea....how can anyone possibly blame the dman

What..?

 

[Steamwhistle]

Dermott better buy MacDonald a beer after that one.

 

[Knight53]

Dermott with a brutal turnover yikes

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

Dermott on the PP lol.

 

[1912]

Vejdemo should make this team.

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Dermott on the PP lol.

Why is that lol ?

He plays on it regularly on one of the best teams in the CHL ?

 

[John Agar]

Dermott with a brutal turnover yikes

Juulsen should have been selected over Dermott
