There used to be a joke that the worlds is for the Canadian players a holiday in Europe. In between nightclubbing there is some hockey to be played.

However these days nightclubs are closed because of covid. Still, the way Canada plays seems like they have had a heavy night.

If only Martin Pospisil was here, could have knocked Komarov around after the late hit

Being as enough of those teams won golds I would suggest this particular group actually go out tonight and have a good time, buy the booze at a store and sight see while washing the stuff down.

Herring salad

I could go for some Hering salad.

with some potatoes, tasty.

 

[mattihp]

What have Canada's D-pairings looked like?

 

[Rabid Ranger]

I think the NA teams are going to be in tough in this tournament.

 

[Antiillafire]

Tic tac toe 4-0

 

[garbageteam]

This is the worst Team Canada that has ever been sent to the WCs in the modern era I think. It's gotta be worst than even the Olympic year rosters they got in 2006, 2010 and 2014.

 

[Ivo]

Beauty of a finish.

Tic tac toe 4-0

Coach's challenge for an offside. Either way, was a nice play.

I'd give them a couple of games to find a bit of chemistry. Latvia taking them on first was certainly a good thing for Latvia.

Looked onside, Hrivik’s skate was still there

 

[Ivo]

Looks like a good goal.

edit. And it is. Free powerplay.

 

[tobu]

We have a good goal for Hrivik. Slovakia up 4-0.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Great save from Kuemper..

 

[Antiillafire]

Hopefully Ramsay gives Slaf PP time here

 

[Breakers]

Smart smart play by Owen power defensively

 

[Jon Riley]

Ahaha wtf the empty net posts

 

[DieSendungmitderMaus]

Lol Daugavins misses the open net, triggering 2013 PTSD in all Bruins fans

 

[Namejs]

Those 3 goalposts though

I remember a few years ago one of the Czechs posted a video from hotel room. I think it was gudas, pastrnak and Krejci and they were bombed and singing songs.lol

 

[PanniniClaus]

Full credit to Latvia..selling out to win... kept themselves in solid defensive positions.

 

[Antiillafire]

Refs doing make up calls for Belarus now

 

[jj cale]

Surprised we couldn't even snag a goal but not surprised at the result considering the circumstances. I am sure they will get better but this team is most likely going to have to squeeze goals out this tournament.

Congrats to Latvia.
