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

[Deep Blue Metallic]

TC just not on the same page so often. But canceled practices for more "team bonding".

 

[JimmyApples]

Canada is just a bad team this tournament, losing to another bad team tbh

 

[NyQuil]

I was going to say the crowd is just not into it. But then remembered it’s in Ottawa so that’s just normal

 

[Snippit]

Not having a practice since the 27th should lead to a top to bottom investigation

 

[le_sean]

This may be the least chemistry coherant team I've ever seen. Just randomly skating everywhere lmao.

Typically that just happens naturally when you’re very talented. But they decided to keep a lot of those players home

 

[lancepitlick]

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

The entire team looks slow as molasses.

 

[Bgav]

12 shots. Embarrassing

 

[landy92mack29]

So Cameron finally changes lines up a bit but seperates Mckenna-Catton who were the only 2 clicking together and keeps Cowan-Ritchie together who are very obviously the 2 that need to be split up the most. Impressive

I feel like....a practice could help with that. But I'm not Dave Cameron!

 

[fahad203]

Martone has done nothing

 

[le_sean]

Not bad for a library

 

[Rygu]

How are they ass? It can literally be both. A cross check was committed then the dive occurred.

If a crosscheck worthy of a penalty happened, then there was no dive... he got crosschecked. If there was a dive, then a penalty worthy crosscheck didn't occur.

 

[kris]

Not convinced they'd win a rematch with the Latvians

 

[novisor]

Worst team I’ve seen. They can’t get anything going. So disorganized. This is terrible coaching. They look like they’ve never skated together.

You gotta let dudes be dudes.

 

[Heldig]

Can't make a 5 foot pass. Can't enter the zone on-side. Can't retain possession. This is about as ugly as Team Canada hockey has ever been.

This.

They look like a team that got registered in the wrong tournament and are playing 2 divisions above their level.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Canada looks like a team that needed practice

im not even sure having that 1 practice would help. This team has no chemistry and looks exactly like a bunch of guys thrown together 2 weeks ago. They have not adapted to the circumstances like most WJC Canadian teams do.

 

[vildurson]

Martone has done nothing

Hard when you dont know what others should be doing.

 

[Tanknation]

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

I was never sold on him In London. Nothing special to be honest. I could end up being wrong and he turns out solid, just very meh to me.

 

[fahad203]

Dump and chase...... Except there is no chase

 

[WORLDSTARHIPHOP]

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

Nah it's actually his fault because he sucks ass

 

[heynowbababooey]

but why discuss them on here?

Why not? You're trying to sell a narrative that's not true. There's thousands of canada fans who are putting the blame solely on the officiating.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Martone has done nothing

Fanned on a one timer.. only thing of note.

 

[trilobyte]

That's a real failure from the top, better be noticed and acted on

 

[Lenny Levino]

Canada looks like a team that shouldn’t be at this tournament

Let's not exaggerate. They're not that bad. Still better than Latvia, Slovakia, Germany etc. No shame in a quarterfinals exit.
