I don't get how that's remotely a slew foot.

Guy bumped into him and his leg went up to balance himself. Did it even touch the guy?

Looks like a move Tkachuk would pull with the masterful dive.

 

[Del Preston]

How dare you stop short with my wife!

 

[ViD]

Kill that penalty and then show them what the Red Machine is, boys

 

[snipes]

O.K, let's get this 3rd happening, good game.

Been an excellent game.

Russia has carried the 5 v 5 play. They really need to stay out of the box to take this one.

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

Great game!
Let’s go 3rd period now!

Hockey is better with hate.

Only to the untrained eye.

The greatest Hockey team of all time played the game within whistles, not one scrum in any game and with pure clean tactics.

Team Canada 2014 showed Hockey at its best is without such a stupid emotion called hate.

I think they are in good shape to win it, like you said, 5 on 5 they've been the better team.

I thought he had a strong 2nd period, if you can get 4 grade A scoring chances you are doing something right. With puck luck he could have 6 goals this tourney.

He missesd two open nets. Those are not puck luck all the time, maybe he's not a great finisher
A lot of people get a lot of chances, they just don't have the finish

 

[Startseva]

They got the powerplays because of domination.

Sweden dominated that period, just like Russia dominated the first period.

They got powerplays coz of many reaons) but if for u okay to say 4vs 5 its domination then ''okay'' *facepalm*
everyone has its own opinion. i wouldsnt say russia dominated if we had 4 pps and thats the difference between us/

 

[aphyro]

and the doctor is the assistant trainer

Well he got some good hockey knowledge playing in the Canadian league as kid

 

[Fatass]

You couldn’t be more wrong. Nicest guy among the prospects I’ve followed.

Nice off the ice is great, but if he is a bit nasty on the I ice that’s a good thing, no?

 

[NorCalhockey]

Assistant coach

Ok, thanks!

 

[Startseva]

And all the PPs were just gifted to Sweden?

No, it was fair calls. But not last.

 

[JimboA]

I see nothing wrong with a little swagger in what has turned into a really heated game.

I for one think the sport of hockey needs more trash talk.

I agree although I haven’t seen this specific interview. Just wanted to deny the description of him being “a dick”

 

[Startseva]

ohh sweden dominating 1st 2 mins of 3d

 

[McClelland]

Great intense in this game, playoffs started early!

Russia has 1 superline who create all their chances, sweden has slowned them down in 2nd!

If Russia lose, Can-Fin will be a game no one wants to win!

 

[ORRFForever]

There was time when Russia was ahead 12(?) to 2 in shots. IIRC, that means Sweden has outshot Russia 28 to 10 since. Not good.

 

[JimboA]

Nice off the ice is great, but if he is a bit nasty on the I ice that’s a good thing, no?

Yes but I think the comment was in reference to Holtz’ intermission interview.

 

[aphyro]

No, it was fair calls. But not last.

I agree last power play should have been a 2 min on the swede aswell.

 

[Deen]

Askarov for real might be a dynamo. A new Dominator.

 

[ORRFForever]

Might be a cardio thing, That's what I am seeing at least.

To my eyes, just undisciplined play by Russia.

 

[The Vasili Jerry]

How dare you stop short with my wife!

We have great taste in our avatars - same episode!

 

[Eggtimer]

Holtz talking some shit. Love it lol

Dammit I missed the interview. What did he say ?

 

[NoMessi]

Dammit I missed the interview. What did he say ?

That Russia should have been given a 5 minute penalty, the referees need to step up.

 

[snipes]

Soderstrom has been abysmal this game.
