GDT: Quarterfinal - February 21 - Canada (1) vs Finland (0)

[BB88]

...then a turnover.

He didn't do any major mistakes and got the puck out& flew into the offensive zone with the puck.

If you want to think bad think of the rest of the team.

 

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Meh, disappointed in our coach. Deserved win for Canada.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Well at least also Sweden is out.

Sweden lost to Germany. Sweden was such a big threat.

This tournament is different. There’s no clear cut favourite.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

Do you really believe this? I bet you don't.

And you don't have to worry about it anyway because Sweden is eliminated.

I would have layed my life savings on an elimination game between Canada and Sweden because well.......It's Canada vs Sweden, we know how that usually plays out in those games.

They’re obviously sad and bitter right now

 

[FinPanda]

typical little brother comment.

Yeah I needed to say that before anyone else. Really I don't care much about it.

 

[Hockeyisl1fe]

He always does. There is good thinks on his game, but his defense is pretty questionable at times. Poor man Ristolainen with much weaker defense.

f*** off lol.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

No doubt

Funny comments, seeing how Canadians go in a super salty meltdown mode whenever they lose a tournament. Or even a game. Same with USA

well, he seems to be for sure.

Canada with no chance to beat Sweden, yeah sure.

The difference is we go down in a super salty meltdown about our own play, not the ice, or the refs, or anything else.

We are accountable, we don't engage in conspiracy theories.

 

[FinPanda]

Oh well, congrats Canada. We just can't score.

 

[JJTT]

Sweden lost, Torille!!

 

[W75]

Ok.. Canada, Germany, OAR and Czech left. I think only OAR sounds too difficult for Team Canada in advance.

So I'd say there's a chance for them.

That's not what i've witnessed, but ok.

Tell me, do you see any finns here complaining about anything except the coach & the team?

 

[kirppu]

After how arrogant Finnish fans were, I’m pretty happy Canada put them in their place

The game was pretty even. I have not seen arrogant Finns here ... are you a bad winner yourself? Congratulations to Canada for a good game!

 

[jj cale]

Not surprised, you see what you want to see no doubt but o.k

and I agree, finnish fans here are only holding their team accountable today, there hasn't been any whining so hats off to you all.

Doesn't matter though, we are through, go Canada.

 

[Ducks76]

Is he going to coach the world championship?

Yes his contract ended after WC 18! But i hope he go before WC!

Here come the usual bad winners from Canada, haha.

Give your head a shake.

Yeah this was weird that we don't whine about the refs or something. We could've won this game.

 

[DoubleGold]

What the hell is wrong with Canadians here? We've done nothing else but put the blame on ourselves, our headcoach especially, and somehow we're whiny and arrogant. Time and time again Canadians display their cockyness and arrogance when it comes to national games. You guys should really look in the mirror.

I made my prediction at the start of this thread it would be a one goal game or possibly 2 on an empty netter and I am not surprised I was right, it was always going to be close, could have went either way.

First period was all finns, 2nd and 3rd Canada was clearly the better team.Today Canada goes through, another day it's Finland.

We both know how this works.

 

[JJTT]

Marjamäki saying there was enough scoring changes, just unlucky how they lost one draw

Can we finally move on from the 80's born "golden" era at the national team and rebuild?

 

[mattihp]

Good job Canada. Eeli wasn't enough this time!

You guys have been fine this game, no whining.

You have handled yourselves with excellent attitude today.

Idiots to smart posters is generally proportional to fan base. To think otherwise is generally wrong.

Thank you. Best of luck in the upcoming games.
