Hockey catching up...

I mean you can’t argue there wasn’t actual contact like you can here.

I guess Canada is to good at developing stars .....Bedard and Celebrini are still eligible to be playing for Canada.

We're too good at developing centers. We suck at developing every other position though .

 

[Knave]

How much do you think the country music has contributed to this gigantic failure?

 

[6ix]

2 points per game in the WHL as a 16 year old isn’t impressive enough for you? (I know he turned 17 a few weeks ago)

I’m talking about what trait separates him from others as being touted the next great Canadian. As I said McDavid had the speed that popped, Bedard had the shot, I don’t see any standout trait from Mckenna

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Alright, gotta play, no more ragging on Sikora.

I think if Canada scores 3 that counts as a tournament win

 

[CpatainCanuck]

Mckenna played it poorly but c’mon, Dickinson completely coughed it up

McKenna seemed to accept that he couldn't get back to prevent the cross ice pass, so instead covered the third man. Lots of blame to go around on that goal.

 

[TonsofPuppies]

Selfish play.

To be fair to Cowan, have you seen this guy pass? Taking the shot was honestly a better opportunity than if he tried passing, which would have ended up in the corner. Lmao

 

[Spektre]

Nice start. We need to avoid stupid penalties. Push for 4 but be patient. Canada will score again.. just a matter of how many.

Hoping for a 17-1 Czechia win

This TSN intermission show reminds me of propaganda from state run media. Jesus Christ.

Well it kind of is.


Tsn basically gave birth to the popularity of this tournament.

It’s best to not take it to heart.

 

[alphahelix]

McKenna thought he had an even 3 on 3 to deal with until he looked around and saw no D... He then didn;t know whether to track sale or the trailer... In the end he did nothing. All Dickinson to top off one of the worst periods ever by a Canadian D in the WJC's.

But under no circumstances will Dave Cameron give Beau Akey more than 2 minutes of ice time.

How much do you think the country music has contributed to this gigantic failure?

Most if not all of it?

Hoping for a 17-1 Czechia win

​

Are you kidding?

29–1 or the Czechs are disappointing.

America plays Free Bird and they soar like eagles

 

[dino200022]

keep your london players back in london next year please

Shows your ignorance...because it appears that two London boys are already in the semis....so clearly not a London problem sunshine.

 

[RayLeeCharles]

Even teammates are sick of Cowan

Goalie saw it was Cowan and knew not to worry about the backdoor lol

 

[landy92mack29]

Cameron is just playing 4d chess. Don't need to cancel practice tomorrow if you're eliminated...and we think he's stupid

 

[Some Other Flame]

This is the worst Canadian team of all time

 

[jj cale]

well Czechs, Finns, Swedes...........it's up to you now fellas.

Don't let me down.

 

[Blender]

I will hope for a bounce back period here, though it seems like low probability from a team that hasn't practiced and is coached by someone who has publicly stated he can't control his players.

 

[Larry44]

That probably shouldn't have been a major penalty, but Bob Mackenzie seems a bit of a homer here saying that was a "centre mass hit". You can't just go scissoring the opposition at full speed, it is dangerous. If there isn't a penalty in the book for that kind of hit there should be.

What, where you go to make a clean him and the chicken bails instead of taking the hit? No knee-on-knee contact at all. Beaudoin got 5 minutes for causing Sykora to crap his pants. Great reffing.

 

[Vipers31]

All started with a fake injury and bs penalty call

It didn’t start there, it didn’t go downhill there, and it didn’t end there.

 

[EK65IsAGod]

I blame the weird song for Team Canada's failures

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

This is the worst Canadian team of all time

somehow surpassing last years

 

[North]

It makes no sense cause if they did any of this stuff in London, Dale Hunter would staple their ass to the bench.

That’s not entirely true.

The reason O’Reilly has heated up with Cowan and Dickinson away is because he doesn’t have to focus on being the defensive conscience while the other guys focus on offense.

 

[NyQuil]

Imagine writing and performing that song and then having it inexorably and forever connected to this legendary WJC performance.
