We can comeback for sure...

Just one shot and we are dominating possession.

The swiss play a frustrating game.
 
well, we have one period to get things together.

we absolutely need the next goal or this team is toast, they just don't have the game to come back from a 2 goal deficit.
 
Just need a good surge.

20 minutes is a long time.

The big thing is not to gamble like the US did against Sweden and make the lead bigger.
 
18 shots in that period.

I find it baffling the swiss havn't been given a penalty. I feel like International refs call penalties more based off of reaction than on infraction.
 
all it takes is a hot goalie in a 1-of game. that being said we are getting our chances. hope kuemper doesn't let in a softie

Canada has to work harder to earn one.

The best calls are hooks when Canada is moving. So far, the Swiss have been faster on open ice.

Yeah not a single penalty against the Swiss.

In fairness they've played pretty disciplined.
 
Lower hockey ? This Canada's roster (despite goalie) would probably sweep the ice with all four remaining playoff teams. Just compare Canada's 3rd and 4th line to 3rd and 4th line of remaining playoff teams.

No they would not. Their goaltending is so terrible that even with this domination, they would still lose to any team with Hellebuyck, Fleury, Vasilevskiy, and Holtby in net. They are dominating right now and still losing on the scoreboard and these NHL playoffs have shown that teams can win while being mostly dominated if their goaltending is significantly better. If you swap Fleury and Hellebuyck, Winnipeg is up 3-1 in that series, and the difference between those goalies is much smaller than the difference between Darcy f***ing Kuemper and any one of the 4 goalies I mentioned.
 
Can't even win against Switzerland hahahha
