GDT: Semi-Final | Russia Vs Canada | 6PM | TSN/NHLN

[robertocarlos]

It is a Canadian network speaking to a Canadian audience. I mean...

More like brain washing.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

I just hope Canada keeps the exact same level of pressure up ... no cheating boys

3-0 in the 1st is the most dangerous lead in junior hockey... Keep your foot on the gas lads!

They better keep their foot on the gas in the next two periods, because ten years ago today, Canada had a 3-0 lead in the gold medal game against the Russians until the Russians stormed back with 5 unanswered and won the game 5-3. Hopefully, history doesn't repeat itself tonight as long as Canada plays its game and keep the Russians in check.

Great watching Newhook give a good interview (Newfoundlanders can't help but be good talkers!) in addition to helping this team out a lot.

Max Jones is 22....

What are you talking about??? I am saying Max Jones has no scoring ability and should be a 3rd line forward with 30-35 pt potential.

Perception is so much different now in hockey re: reasons why you fall like a sack of potatoes and do a death roll...

I am getting "older"... therefore My sense of fair play is different...

You didn't fall like that years ago unless you were already unconscious as you were falling..

I dislike it in soccer... I dislike in hockey...

Thus My point..

Control your stick ?

Control your sportsmanship...

If I wanted actors in sport... I'd watch Slapshot the movie...

You have zero argument, he was bleeding. Hard stop. It's pathetic you are trying to play this off as unsportsmanlike like after getting hit I'm the fave with a stick that cut his chin.

You are likely close to my age (37), so we grew up with the same game. The only difference is I'm being reasonable and understand the rules, where you are letting emotions get in the way.

Schneider has litteraly been Canadas worst player by far this tournament. Has no ability on the puck at all. Wouldn't have taken him in the top 3 rounds and I say this as a Rangers fan.

It's a good thing you're not on the Rangers staff then. He's effective not flashy but most here can't see that. Makes the safe effective decision every time and shuts down every attack by the opponents, he's the type who won't get headlines but is a key reason a team will win. Suzuki, Barron and Holloway have kinda been the clear worst(no canadian player has been overly bad tbh)

 

[BlitzSnipe]

Probably going to be 5-1 by the end of this period.

Askarov f***ING SUCKS!!! - Ray Ferraro

I'm trying to guess how soon he'll just come out and say something very blunt like "the kid sucks" or "he just isn't good" it's a comin folks

 

[Eegs]

Stop spamming the Reklaws TSN

So painful...

 

[nhlfan9191]

Levi has the benefit of a dominant Team Canada. Rarely gets tested.

I’m sure there were people on this board saying the same things about Glass and Pogge 16 years ago. Levi is nothing special but all Canada needs is someone who won’t give up deflating goals in big games. Which is something we deal with way to often in this tournament.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

More like brain washing.

Sure, but considering it is their most watched show of the year, I guess they have been doing what was needed

No dreaming... no mind wandering...

It nearly did in the 2015 final too!

 

[Bruce Granville]

He really should have gone second overall. A few teams really screwed up passing on him.

That‘s bs.
The only team taking a D before were the Sens. And obviously they preferred a bigger LD.

 

[Canadienna]

Canada has outscored their opponents 31-0 at 5v5?

Thats mental.

 

[Oilslick941611]

More like brain washing.

lol brainwashing us at what? a sport we already like?

 

[Zybalto]

He was terribly out of position on the second goal.

Puck went through him on the third goal.

I mean, it is not all him, but he is certainly not having a good game.

Thats a goal on any keeper in the tourney. Brutal D in front of the net.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

LOL Canada outscoring opposition 31-0 at 5 on 5

 

[Svencouver]

But that good old Canadian boy Levi... Have you ever seen a tendie swallow up so many pucks? NO REBOUNDS. ALL TOURNAMENT.

 

[Saitama]

Nice to have the early lead but I've seen enough Canada vs Russia games to know the lead will change another 2-3 times. Wouldn't feel safe with a 6-0 lead at this level, no matter how good the team has been.

I don't know if the leads going to change that many times, but I definitely will never count Russia out. I've seen too many games where they started roaring back after being down!

 

[Canada4Gold]

Whoa, that graphic. Outscored opponents 31 to 0 at 5 on 5 this tournament. I knew they only gave up 4 goals. I didn't realize none of them were 5 on 5

 

[joe dirte]

That‘s bs.
The only team taking a D before were the Sens. And obviously they preferred a bigger LD.

Or they screwed up. Or you think they wanted a left d despite the massive downgrade?

I was gonna say... Did I hear that right?

 

[Tripod]

No lead is safe when it comes to these 2 teams. Canada has to keep pushing for more goals.

I do not agree. Schneider constantly fumbles the puck on the breakout and ruins plenty of counter attacking opportunities. He has no creativity in the offensive zone and is clueless on the puck, making the safe play every time, sometimes failing with that. He is good defensively but that doesn´t compensate for being by far the worst player on the ice with the puck, both teams included.
