I hate to pile on him but Cowan just had to whiff eh

LOL our play by play guy said "he wasn't expecting it"

so where was Cowan skating too? Dude is lucky as shit he's not a Canuck prospect.

 

[trilobyte]

Martone knows what the f*** is required

 

[NyQuil]

Leaf prospect bad

Not bad, just miscast.

 

[therealdeal]

Okay boys, let’s f***ing go. One period, play like it!

Cowan isn't having a great tournament but looks like a good player to me. Good sense, fast, skilled, but has made some undisciplined plays for sure. Calling him trash is dumb.

I feel like he gets tunnel vision quite a bit, don't see the good sense. But then again, could just be the nerves/wanting to do too much

 

[thaman8765678]

Why was Martone a healthy scratch when we have absolute bums with no hockey iq like Cowan getting ice time?

 

[OilersFanatics505]

The same refs that issued that bullshit five and a game?

The same 5 and a game that gave Canada one of their 2 goals?

 

[lawrence]

Martone Yager McKenna and Catton.. it’s on you boys to tie this up, hopefully you get the playing time

Catton, Mckenna were their guys that was generating offensive ice time last game. Those guys deserve to be out there to chase the lead. Not grinders, f I hate dumping on Cowan so much, because its not his fault either. Its the coach! but still, let those guys chase the lead now!

 

[Zippgunn]

They call that a Necas.

I call it a "Burrows"...

i can't wait tell he plays some games for the leafs it will be amazing if he plays like this

 

[jj cale]

Probably playing hackey sack in the dressing room.

TC is right back in this game. All will be forgiven if they miraculously win Gold. Very short memories in sports.

Miraculously is the right word for sure.

 

[eviohh26]

Just rewatched that tripping call a few times. It was a bad call. Canada got lucky. Now they gotta get 1 more.

 

[gritdash60]

If that soft ass call would've gone the otherway Canadian fans would be shouting "IIHF CORRUPT!!11" now you are "hmm. what if we put this dude in this line" insufferable clowns.

Yeah, then nobody would care or notice him. Now the whole hockey world has to pile on him because his coach seems to think hes the greatest player to ever put on the Canadian Jersey.

If this team has any nuts at all it's time to show it.

I mean just a round about way of disagreeing and saying I didn't think it was all that impressive. Good tip, but I don't know that I would personally say it's the most impressive I've ever seen.

Like just a couple off the top of my head.

The first one you posted is much more of a backhand swipe than a deflection. If the PBP calls it as "batting it in" and the motion certainly matches it to my eye, it's not really a deflection or tip-in.

The second one looks more lucky than very intentional but they don't ask how, they ask how many.

You like them both more than the Martone deflection, that's fine. I literally called it "pretty" as in "aesthethically pleasing" and I certainly don't think either counterexample as being pretty. You might, and that's fine with me.

Flames game is on so no Canada propaganda from TSN for me.

lol... this guy was completely left off. why? I have no clue. His linemate made it though. this guy would have also made any other team if he had a different nationality. Only Canada is stupid enough to screw up its selection process, proceeds to play bumbs to chase a 1 goal lead.

Bit of a makeup call. Ref was thinking "oh ya, I've seen this before".

Don't get sidetracked.............................your team has work to do, and you better f***ing do it.

It looked like a knee on knee , thus the call.

Unexpected itt ... Roger Daltrey doing cartwheels on the beach.

 

[Czechboy]

Czechs without a scoring chance in the 2nd... I hope that isn't the third period plan.

No it did not. It was a shoulder to the chest. Thus the wrong call .
