Pounder is explaining basic hockey tactics.

Make her the coach.

 

[fahad203]

This is all Justin Trudeau's fault

You spelled Cowan wrong

 

[KCC]

Which D got caught up ice? Clearly McKenna thought he was just identifying the high man and realized there wasn;t a second d. With seconds left in the period... where the f*** was the D!!!!!!

Atrocious period.

Czech's have been stretching out the D the entire period with their great transition. Canada has no answer.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Like for real...there is talent on this team. Complete failure on the coaching front.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Dickinson was pinching which happens all the time....McKenna blew the coverage bigtime. Just let him walk right in. BRUTAL

Dude was pinching with a few seconds left in the period...

 

[Spektre]

On pace for a 9-3 Czechia win

Cameron cancelled practice this morning…

 

[ryan callahan]

The London knights would probably beat this team Canada.

They are already doing so.

 

[JackSlater]

Pretty much a picture perfect play by the Czechs at the end for the goal. Nice of Dickinson to make it all possible with the most dangerous Czechs on the ice.

Czechs are playing well, couldn't really script a worse period for Canada. Give up a goal right away. Take a dumb penalty to immediately negate a power play. Get a major penalty, with the opposition play acting to add some salt. Score on the team's own net during that kill. Then allow a goal with two seconds left in the period.

Other than Yager's line I don't know who has shown jump. Not much to do. Hope they play hard for the rest of the game.

 

[Rodzilla]

Heck its the first game I watch this tournament have they always looked this terrible?


i thought they’d be decent with the names they left out

What a bunch of clowns running this

Dickinson and Easton Cowan are horrible hockey players.

But the coach continues to let these bums play and cost the team. So it is what it is.

Go big or go home.

That last goals doesn’t look like it’ll matter. Czechs are not going to quit playing whether they scored there or not.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Maybe this will be the wake up call to not take worse players over better ones??

Let’s see who starts next PP - guessing it will be Cowans unit

Likely, hopefully they will have McKenna on that unit.

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

Another year without Canada in semifinals. Love it

After a 5th place finish last year they're somehow worse this year. Crazy to see.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

What a shitty period for Dickenson.

Also, Cameron needs to stop using that top unit on the PP. It's looked like utter trash the entire tournament. The London trio passing back and forth and then firing into skates is getting tiresome.

Cameron should be fired before the second period

 

[Gert B Frobe]

Where is Luchanko?

 

[Mr Kot]

You spelled Cowan wrong

Costin Trudwan

 

[Reality Czech]

This thread is more entertaining than the game

 

[Spilot23]

Haven’t watched Canada at all until tonight damn Dickinson is having a rough one and Cowan trying to do too much by himself. Really liked what I saw from Yager.

 

[North]

Why Canada is so reluctant to establish a strong net front presence on the pp remains a mystery to me.

You mean perimeter play and weak passing is not a recipe for success on the PP?

Good thing you missed the last game
Stupidity at their finest

 

[kudla]

I guess the canadian coach is getting fired lmao

 

[Garo]

He’s not the problem

McKenna was like the best player against the US, outside of George of course.

If he was playing on the second line behind Cristall - Misa - Sennecke, it would already be an improvement

Yes, we all know our 3x multiplication table.
