GDT: Quarter Finals: Canada vs Czechia; Jan. 2, 2025; 19:30 EST

[Blender]

Best game of the tournament for Yager by far.

 

[Tanknation]

Canada is no threat to score. All perimeter play and the shots from the point are no where near the net.

Yup. They just all try wrist shots from 30- 40 ft out with zero traffic everytime.

 

[NyQuil]

more like the other way around, TSN made this tournament what it was. It certainly helped TSN become bigger. This tournament was a no name barely attended tournament in the 80s, 90s and early 00's. In fact TSN grew it so much the IIHF basically had Canada hosting it every other year because no one attended it in Europe.

It was the revenue they made from this that allowed them to get into the NHL hockey broadcasting.

Where are the goals coming from?

The players picked next year

 

[5 14 6 1]

Cowan and Dickinson making bad plays every single time they touch the puck and they are still getting fed minutes. Makes no sense.

 

[OttersFan]

This has to be the most uneventful game all day.

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Even teammates are sick of Cowan

 

[DeeQ]

I'm a bit conflicted. I really want to root for the Czechs but also kinda hoping for Canada to pull their head out of their asses and get the win so we don't have to face Sweden in the semis

 

[fahad203]

Like zero cohesion and chemistry from Canada.
Comical at this point

Is that important in hockey?

Doesn't hurt that a lot of Canadians used to pay extraordinary prices for tickets. The IIHF likes that and the TSN broadcast rights are bank.

 

[Monsieur Miz]

Are the fans booing Team Canada?

Nah, Sikora.

 

[nbwingsfan]

I thought SJ had the steal of the draft on Dickinson but good lord he’s had a brutal tournament is pretty much every single aspect

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Zzzzzzzz
Do something

 

[TonsofPuppies]

This Canada team is absolute dogshit

Now now, don't be unfair. Even dog shit has some value, as a fertilizer.

 

[hockey20000]

Are the fans booing Team Canada?

can't say they dont deserve it lol

 

[Oilslick941611]

You haven't seen social media comments, have you? It's never hockey canada or the players faults. It's the officials and the weak international rules.

no, i dont follow social media.

I haven't seen anything but blaming hockey canada and the players on here.

 

[Blanka]

What am I defending? This is the worst team Canada in a long time

It's all Cowan's fault because Leafs. I love these clowns' takes.

 

[MXD]

PbP guy on RDS just called Cowen completely lost on the ice. I have a hunch that broadcasters on TSN arent quite critical.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

The players picked next year

Hopefully they can muster more than 11 in 5 games.

 

[emptynetter3]

is the crowd boo'ing because he got kneed?

 

[Heldig]

Dickinson turns the puck over every time he has it. Lmao

Shadow of the player image watched in the OHL.

 

[shaner8989]

Why is Dickinson still getting shifts? Worst player all tourney long

Almost looks like they could have used a practice since the 27th

 

[William H Bonney]

Canada is lifeless. Look like the Americans did against Finland

 

[Evil__Homer]

I love you all here. Enjoy the game.

NHL games on so going to watch them.
