Russia - Canada GDT

[The Mars Volchenkov]

What the hell was that Gonchar?

 

[Roger's Pancreas*]

Gonchar, power play specialist indeed.

 

[The_Eck]

All Hail Todd the Thug.

 

[CUBErt]

Ovechkin

Now THAT'S how you fight for the puck.

 

[Den]

Ouch, that's a back breaker.

Not yet, not yet, wait. I can't watch

 

[GKJ]

a great feed by Kozlov. I guess he came to play.



Wow! what a quick whistle

 

[Nemchinov13]

Stupid Gonchar. Stupid Pens signed him for how much???

 

[MissCanuck]

Why can't we score? ughh

 

[joe_shannon_1983*]

Canada needs to tie it up now.

 

[Shane]

Great pick Wayne. Bertuzzi is the man!!!!!!!!1

And Pronger's turnover had nothing to do with it? C'mon. This is Canada's seventh penalty today, and only Bertuzzi's first. How come no one's ragging on any of the other penalty takers? Pat Quinn especially.

 

[Nordique]

Some how I'm sure it was Nash's fault, right?

 

[lennie]

Great pick Wayne. Bertuzzi is the man!!!!!!!!1

Yup its all Bertuzzi's fault. Forget the fact that %80 of this team is missing in action. Its all Bertuzzi's fault.

I can see this playing out.

 

[Nova88]

Ovechkin

Now THAT'S how you fight for the puck.

Tell that to the guy tha says that Pronger can shut down The Ovey One.

 

[calgarylen13]

Crosby > Ovechkin ...GO RUSSIA

 

[The_Eck]

Next games in 2010, don't pick players who take STUPID PENALTIES ALL THE TIME!!!

ie: Nash, Pronger, and Todd the Thug

 

[jd84]

How was that a turnover? Pronger put the puck in front of the net so one of the three Canadian players could move the puck down the ice. Doan completely whiffed on the puck (although he's been strong on the penalty kill besides that play) and it allowed the Russians to keep the puck in the zone.

Yup its all Bertuzzi's fault. Forget the fact that %80 of this team is missing in action. Its all Bertuzzi's fault.

He is easy to pick on. Hate'em here in Minnesota.

Of course not. Bertuzzi is the easy whipping boy.

Its all Bertuzzi's fault yadd, yadda yadda Should have had Crosby Stall yadda, yadda, yadda

 

[joe_shannon_1983*]

Canada looks tired and deflated.

 

[CraigC]

Crosby > Ovechkin ...GO RUSSIA



On a side note, 99% of the players on the ice would have scored there, its was a defensive breakdown by Canada, and Kozlov set him up beautifully, would have been hard to miss. He was in the right place at the right time though.

 

[The_Eck]

Only game Todd the Thug has been good in was against the weak Italians. The rest of the tournament he has been quite invisible to say the least.

 

[Nova88]

Canada looks tired and deflated.

Its not over.. but that was a big. To get the 1st one after 40 min.

 

[Kritter471]

How much time left/score update, for those of us following the scintillating game thread in lieu of having any TV or ability to screen our IP to stream the game.

 

[joe_shannon_1983*]

Canada is getting a powerplay. They need to take advantage of this.
