The playoffs have been great, the hockey has been way more exciting then any of the games here, don't know what you are seeing.
I'm seeing more exciting hockey in this tournament than the NHL snooze fest playoffs where most games are decided by a blowout in the 1st period
 
Some of you really need to learn the game. Nurse played that perfect. The whole point of a Dman is angling a player off for easy vision and line of sight for the goaltender. No NHL goalie would have let that in he had vision the whole way. I would be shocked if a goalie let that in,in the AHL in that same situation.

I get it you Sens fans are mad because your guy sat again but seriously you make yourselves out as horrible students of the game.

nurse played that perfect. I don't understand. he have Kemp through perfect angle to see the puck

Ignore that guy. He’s an idiot. Go read his idiotic comment about McDavid.

Guy doesn’t know anything about hockey.

He made exact same comment for game against Russia about Nurse and Nurse wasn’t even on the ice for the goal against

I hate playing feisty euro squads, and you can tell the team does as well. Not because we can't match it, but with international refs Canada is always so tentative to match that fiest, because international guys let go a very different style of play than NA refs do.

You always see Canada or the US just getting dominated physically, or you just see Canada or the US just taking a parade to the box. IDK.

Even Finland was pretty good Euro team this year and still we lost quarterfinal.
Thanks for that belongs to clueless head coach who had zero reactions when game was 3-1 for Switzerland.
Canada doesn't have those coaching issues what Finland had and still they ( Canada) would been able to beat us if we would have win our quarterfinal..
 
Yeah a team anchored by Darcy keumper needs its own classification, "Uber talented".

On an ice surface you could land a jet on.

I get goosebumps just thinking about it.

the games here have been sloppy and boring.......the n.h.l playoffs have not.

case in point the swe-u.s game today versus the last wash-t.b game.

there is no comparision, the n.h.l playoffs have been better this year by a large margin.

a lot of years it's the reverse, but not this year, even the ice here in denmark has made for shitty games, fumbling all over the place.

I don't know what else to tell ya.
 
All lower hockey is generally more fun. More mistakes = more chances.

Tournaments fit too because you cant implement and perfect a system.

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.

Haha is that seriously the same guy? Then you have his sens friends liking and agreeing with his post. Jesus.

LOL, no.

Not with this defence and goalie.

I'd put Finland in the same category as Switzerland. Germany too.

Case in point, that game in the round robin against Finland was exactly what I was talking about, any time a Canadian player thought they were battling they got smacked with the box. You can see it all over the ice, Canadian players are hesitant to take the body.
 
Why is Canada the team that is playing with jitters?

They need to settle down in both ends.
