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

[EK47]

Like men against boys out there. So many errors forced by the Czechs great display by them so far.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

If there's one thing this team is good at is shooting it right into other players.

And the glass behind the net.

 

[trilobyte]

The lack of offensive talent on this Canadian back end is so apparent. Absolutely incompetent moving it through centre ice.

very thin for sure. Enough firepower up front if they get the mental part working

 

[NyQuil]

Cowan doesn't pass

You haven’t been watching the game.

 

[ZDH]

Cowan has had some nice dishes to Mckenna. The young phenom has yet to make good on them

Cowan is a skating dumpster fire.

 

[Alienblood]

McKenna being punished now, playing with Cowan and Ritchie.

keep them together

 

[bobber]

Who is or has been the best d-man for Canada with the puck?

That is a million dollar question.

 

[pgcougsfan]

I feel like you could say this exact same thing about a number of guys on the team.

How many of the other guys on this team bowled a puck into their own net?

 

[OilersFanatics505]

headlock hello? refs? jesus

Bro your homerism is off the charts today… are you even watching the same game?

 

[6ix]

Don't try and make it look like Cowan has been useful.

Who the fk are you to tell me what to do

 

[NyQuil]

Damn… “TSN Pub Nite”… they must be hard up for quality programming. I remember seeing lots of ads during the WC’s for some type of quilting competition.. the Great Canadian Quilt-Off or something, couldn’t believe that shit was real

I mean back in the late 1980s.

Canada winning 5 WJCs in a row starting in 1993 is what built TSN.

 

[LeafGrief]

Cowan has made some good passes this period.

Mckenna is expecting high IQ players to be where he puts the puck and they aren’t there.

You’re not wrong, but he’s been whipping a lot of passes into shin pads as well. Smarter teammates will help, but he’s got to manage the puck better because smarter opponents will be happy to take the turnovers.

 

[jj cale]

Cripes this is tough to watch.

 

[OttersFan]

Carter George would like to switch nationalities during the intermission.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

How many of the other guys on this team bowled a puck into their own net?

I am not trying to say Dickinson has been good tonight?

 

[hockey20000]

Bro your homerism is off the charts today… are you even watching the same game?

yes i am how about you get lost thanks

 

[CpatainCanuck]

Ref decided to grab a stick and join the game eh

 

[Alienblood]

You haven’t been watching the game.

I'm trying, keep that lime together

 

[Evil__Homer]

Both these teams suck... wow. This is sad.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

Who the fk are you to tell me what to do

Leaf avatar… not surprised you’re defending this shit show

 

[Tanknation]

It's sad when the best player on this team, during the whole tournament has been "Price"
And that's not a knock on Price. I think he will be a real solid D in the NHL

 

[Jordan Belfort]

This is some horrible hockey

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Canada can’t even put up a high volume of shots.

 

[North]

His whole shift in the first period may have taxed him.

The thing that gets me is it was a good shift.

He got the puck on net and then played well defensively once the puck went the other way.

Oh look he has a shift this period.

Maybe he’ll get four minutes this game.

 

[Oilslick941611]

A lot of Canadian fans seem to have the mentality that everyone is out to get us and we should be praising everything Team Canada does and never criticize bEcUz ThEy'R'e kids (news flash, these are multi millionare young men, f*** off) when in reality the team is poorly constructed, the coaching staff is clueless, most don't understand IIHF rules are different than NHL rules, and the players themselves are playing like shit.

It's why I feel half our fanbase has turned to laughing at this pathetic mess.

i dont think i've seen a single Canadian fan think anything but the bolded.
