GDT: Russia Vs USA - 12/25 - 9:30 PM ET - TSN/NHLN

[Auston Marlander]

This Russian team won Karjala Cup this November, a men's international tournament. They're pretty good.

They are definitely good. My comment was more about how bad the US looks.

Why can't Gord Miller pronounce Chayka? Just a simple name.

Especiually given this guy

John Chayka - Wikipedia

that Sanderson giveaway wasn't horrendous ...bad result but its a pass and its in the vicinity... What is that saying.. You can't give a good player a bad pass

That's a high risk play even if it works out, it wasn't the right call, he was pressured and wanted to get rid of it.

 

[ViD]

That was dirty from US #26

 

[SoundAndFury]

That was late as hell. Clear interference, classy USA players.

 

[GeorgeReznik1]

Genuine question: have those been competitive games in those 5 weeks? I ask because I keep hearing that most US players haven’t played competitive games (key word competitive) since March

Yes most colleges played their season openers early-mid November. That's not including the little bit of practices and exhibition matches before that.

 

[Stive Morgan]

This announcer is an idiot, a late hit where the guy left his feet is a "great hit"

Not sure if we're watching the same broadcast but if you're talking about Ray Ferraro he said "late" not "great"

 

[Sean Garrity]

WTF are these rec league warmup shots that the US continues to throw at Askarov? Like, what was the point of that Sanderson shot?

I agree just a bit unlucky and he had two team mates coming back but not ready for a pass

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Americans are trying to get one early? Faust its 5 minutes into the third)*&$%^%^&

There was no point.

Nah, NHL network dumb f***. He's been terrible, idk who he is.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

the americans are making so many bad passes

 

[Goulet17]

Great hit by Slaggert on Podkolzin? I really don't agree with the commentator on that point. It looked late.

 

[Big Empty]

Guy threw back one too many eh holy

York got played there

York had another one a few minutes ago. Americans actually were sustaining pressure for a shift. Puck came to him and lofts a wrist shot for an easy whistle for really no reason.

 

[mrmovies779]

Caufield been the best player for the US so far in this game

Boldy has

 

[Legend123]

I think you should take some time not looking at just the score sheet when you’re evaluating players.

He was quiet in the first, but he had a very good second period.

Well I clearly meant that he was literally invisible and that I had to check the starting lineup to see if he even was dressed. I still cant even notice him on the ice.

 

[NJ DevLolz]

LMAO Gritsyuk just broke York's ankles so badly there

 

[Stive Morgan]

Nah, NHL network dumb f***. He's been terrible, idk who he is.

Ah, that explains it.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Boldy has

no dangles no good

 

[SlafCaufield]

Boldy has

No.

 

[Tralfamadore]

Caufield been the best player for the US so far in this game

There's a hot take from you.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

the americans are making so many bad passes

Bad shots too.
