GDT: SF - CAN vs. SUI May 25, 2024

[jj cale]

I think I'll be gardening tomorrow and I'll miss the Sweden vs. Canada bronze medal game.

Unfortunately I have a yachting date at that time myself, sometimes the timing just doesn't work out.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

He carried it backwards so would't count even if in goal.

It would have counted.

 

[Dust]

I usually like Tourigny as a coach but there were a few headscratcher choices for the SO

Surprised he didnt used Tavares and Guenther, especially since he knows the latter really well

Tavares only has a 25% shootout goal rate, probably a good omission.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Good game by Switzerland. Canada wasn't going to be a very good shootout team so that result was not a shock at all. I'm disappointed that I don't have anything interesting to watch tomorrow.

Not with the players Dumbo put out there. Bedard and Guenther should have been in iit

 

[BruinLVGA]

Canadian NHL professionals vs Swiss amateurs.
5-1 to Canada easy.

How did this work out for you?

 

[Edenjung]

Well i am for the czech republic tomorrow.
It cannot be that the swiss get gold before germany.

 

[FinPanda]

Some other than Russia/Sweden/Finland/Canada will win the gold for the first time since 2010

 

[PanniniClaus]

Firstly - I want to congratulate the Swiss. I hope they win gold.

Second - I cannot believe Canada's players were not instructed to shoot on every shot. Did they not see Genoni's work on breakaways? That is pathetic from the coaching staff and the players to not be tuned into how you score on Genoni. Swiss scored on two shots.. They shot every time down

 

[starttomelt]

lol what kind of a question is this

 

[Smif]

Swiss were crap after the 1st period. If Canada had anyone who could finish and a real coach they likely win.

You seem like someone that has watched this game as their first game in the tournament.

You don't know anything about Suisse hockey and probably nothing about international hockey either.

 

[BusQuets]

I wonder, do people in Switzerland even know that this tournament is going on?

Hockey is top3 sport with football and alpine there.

 

[NyQuil]

Tavares only has a 25% shootout goal rate, probably a good omission.

I remember during the round robin, the announcers were talking about how few shootout guys were on the team.

The team didn't have a lot of stickhandling and puck control skill on the team (aside from Bedard) and that always affects your shootouts and PPs.

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

Well, Swiss playing for their 1st gold, Czechs playing for gold at home.

Should be a good one. I think the Czechs win though.

Incorrect Switzerland lost to Sweden in a final.

 

[NyQuil]

Incorrect Switzerland lost to Sweden in a final.

Read my statement again and tell me I'm incorrect.

What the eff does that have to do with anything? We are talking about THIS game.

 

[SwissLeaf]

AWESOME!!!

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

Capito

Reading is hard eh.

 

[NyQuil]

What the eff does that have to do with anything? We are talking about THIS game.

Teams try to turtle and hold on to their lead all the time.

It's why score effects are cited so often in NHL games where the team that is down in the game soundly outshoots the opposition.

We should have scored on the 4 on 3. Yes, we killed one off too after, but that was the game right there.

 

[HabSgt]

Sheez some poor losers in here. Have some grace.

 

[Czechboy]

Real game is tonight anyway!

Yup, 1-0 and no one believes we can do shit. Keep going Oilers! Ride that three headed dragon to the finals!

 

[EK47]

Congrats Switzerland!

 

[Elvs]

Canadian NHL professionals vs Swiss amateurs.
5-1 to Canada easy.

Swiss are a one line team and Josi is awesome. But Canada has so much more depth. This should not be a close game.

Some people never learn, lol.

 

[Smif]

What the eff does that have to do with anything? We are talking about THIS game.

Suisse has been dominant this tournament. They get a lead and they shut it down the rest of the game, Canada broke thru their amazing defensive game, very solid showing by both teams.

 

[Gilmour1996]

Dear Hockey Canada:

Never choose a coach who has been contaminated by coaching Arizona!

Sincerely,

Fans who want to win.

 

[agent082]

It would have counted.

Not by rules.
