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

Do yourself a favour and watch the play again. Not Dickinsons fault on this one. Not having a great period but this was McKennas fault not covering the guy.

 

[Chainshot]

We make our own fun.

I hope we won't have to revert to beer conversation... again.

 

[fahad203]

Have you watched this team play? Not convinced we have the offensive talent to get 4, and that's assuming we only need 4.

There's hope, and then there's delusion.

I live for Hopulision. Let me believe

 

[Beerz]

Not a bad period by the Canadian National Team

-Rob Ray somewhere

 

[Spektre]

It wasn't even a penalty though.

Checking scoring sheet

 

[trilobyte]

Cameron cancelled practice this morning…

Not a serious team...seriously

 

[OilersFanatics505]

That 5 min penalty was such a joke

It got Canada their lone goal…

 

[5 14 6 1]

Even teammates are sick of Cowan

Hockey Canada operates like they are entitled to success. Catching up with them now

It seems to catch up to them every few years. The worst part though is the coaching. This team isn’t playing like a typical team Canada. They aren’t getting to the net, they aren’t physical and they keep the perimeter. They have no shape in the D or O zone and seem to wing it out there.

We knew the result that was coming when this team was announced and we knew it with greater certainty after the USA game. No use in crying spilled milk.

 

[pgcougsfan]

Where did I say he’s the problem? I’m simply asking what stand out trait does he have when being claimed the next great Canadian.

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)

 

[shaner8989]

All started with a fake injury and bs penalty call

 

[Nogatco Rd]

Every kid probably reading social media the whole time between games where they are being brutalized too. Can't be good for confidence. Up to coaching staff to help that. But coaching staff has done nothing to bring team together. Not a single practice since the 27th? Hilarious.

Yeah what’s the justification for that? Trying to keep their legs fresh or what?

 

[Bounces R Way]

"I'm not going to call the guy a faker but he sold it perfectly."
-O'Dog

I think team Russia led by Demidov would take gold in this tourney

Guess we'll never know

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

This team plays like a group that doesn't skate or practice in-between games. Weird.

If I did the amount of work Cameron hasn't this tournament, I'd be refreshing my resume with my ass out the door.

Indeed, no chemistry whatsoever.

 

[EK65IsAGod]

I hope we won't have to revert to beer conversation... again.

I'm drinking pilsners.

 

[Gert B Frobe]

These TSN guys are such pathetic homers. Who is the blockhead that said the refs have never seen a thunderous check before and called it a major penalty? Love seeing them cry.

Don't they realize this is OUR SPORT??!?!?!?

 

[mogs]

They are already doing so.

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

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

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

 

[OilersFanatics505]

Even teammates are sick of Cowan

f***ing tap in goal.

 

[JPeeper]

Tons of cope from the panel, I also agree that shouldn't have been a penalty, but the team is losing because they have stupid turnovers, don't play defense, give up odd man rushes and play hero hockey from bum players like Cowan. They f***ing scored on the 5 minute penalty ffs.

Don't even mention the complete incompetence from the coaching staff.

 

[1989]

Also, leave the kids alone.

Sure, they make mistakes but they don't get to choose the how/when/why they were picked to represent the team. They don't get to choose to be underorganized, undercoached. They want to be successful more than literally anyone in the moment, but they need some direction, analysis of the opposition, etc.

I wouldn't even play Dickenson the rest of the game. He's probably so rattled.

They're already down a player tonight, so how is benching another going to help?

 

[5 14 6 1]

Yeah what’s the justification for that? Trying to keep their legs fresh or what?

Cameron is in over his head. Who knows. He hasn't done a semblance of coaching this entire tournament.

 

[ZDH]

This always happens in the WJHCs. It used to be waaaaay worse but if you deliver a huge hit its a penalty.

 

[Alienblood]

Pounder is explaining basic hockey tactics.

Make her the coach.

He might do ok

 

[North]

I wouldn't even play Dickenson the rest of the game. He's probably so rattled.

Cameron doesn’t believe in benching players…except for the seventh d man.
