GDT: Quarterfinal • Jan. 2 • USA vs. Russia

[New User Name]

Again, not surprised.

DeAngelo on the board. The Canadian viewing party retreats for a few minutes.

From what I've seen on here most Canadians want the US to win.

I don't mind them, but I really can't stand the people who complain about people complaining about other people complaining about other people complaining about penalties.

That really grinds my gears.

Russia playing much better 5v5 now.

 

[DaveH]

Question for team USA followers - why didn't Cole Cassels make the team? He's got 40 points in 24 GP in the CHL and he is an older player as well. I've seen him play a few times and to me he seems like he would be a lot more effective than a handful of guys on this US squad.

Chosen Canada?

Much better game now towards the end of the period.

 

[JoeyBeans]

The Bell Centre can sure pack a house.

But continue with your "everyone hates us attitude"

For spending half the game on the PK, this game is there to be taken. Just show up and don't let them call anything.

 

[JoeyBeans]

but if they did complain it would be justified right?

You are correct!

 

[Jackets16]

Russia just hit the USA goalie. Where is the penalty? If hitting the goalie with your stick is a penalty once, it is a penalty EVERY TIME.

Players keeping their sticks to the ice...

Predicting U.S. will tie before the end of the 2nd.

I was wrong. This game has been disappointing. Soooo sloppy on both ends.

lol, Montreal is a Habs and concert town. As far as I'm concerned these tournaments should be in junior cities only. The environment is way better for this tournament.

Predicting U.S. will tie before the end of the 2nd.

Great prediction

 

[NyQuil]

Yeah okay, big guy.

Rodney Dangerfield is jealous of your schtick.

 

[Dolemite]

This is like watching Team USA at the Nagano Olympics. So much talent playing for themselves and not their country.

Predicting U.S. will tie before the end of the 2nd.

Well done Nostradamus!

 

[c9gunner]

Looks like Russia is picking up its game. Go Russia!

 

[SabresBillsBuffalo]

Not the end of the period we needed

 

[Lime]

So how does this work? the winner of this game plays the winner of?

 

[Czech Yourself Pal]

If Russia wins, we get the winner of the FIN-SWE I don't like that

 

[JoeyBeans]

lol, Montreal is a Habs and concert town.

Everything but a hockey town.

 

[Fantomas]

Kamenev is such a stupid player. Words can't express.

 

[shortshorts]

Russians are playing a very pro-like game. Short changes, hard forecheck, conservative short passes and minimizing turnovers. It is really negating the US on the rush.

 

[JoeyBeans]

If Russia wins, we get the winner of the FIN-SWE I don't like that

Would you rather Canada?

That really grinds my gears.

Stop complaining about grinding your gears.
