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

We don’t have a lot of options.

Bennington has shown he shouldn't be considered.

 

[ORRFForever]

LOL, it's all I've got!!

You can't help yourself.

Canada will score the next goal and tie up the game at some point. After that, I don't know.

 

[albator71]

Gold is all that matters in Canada

Yes I agree but it's always better to win a medal then finishing 4th that's worst spot to finish

 

[Smif]

I never rag on Canada if they lose as long as they give their best effort which they usually do, but when they clearly don't..........................they are gonna hear it.

They're strategy in the 1st was to be flat footed and make blind passes.

"Allo I am Monty & I am used to skating with little to no defence in front of me!"

Well....................there was nothing positive about that period, can't change my ways with play like that.

Come on...

It didn't take long for the fans to turn on the team - NOT directed at you O941611.

We are worst fan base in the world.

 

[Smif]

He's up there.. I'd argue he might even be the best player in final 4. I'm a huge fan. But the 3 Swede D are amazing. Canada has some Beauts on the back end. US had some beauts as well. Plus Nemec on Slovakia.

Best Dmen I've seen at this tourney in a few years.

Josi is one of the best D in the world.

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

Montreal is the best in the Spring, Summer & Autumn.

Avoid the Winter though.

They’re like the French no? Won’t speak English.

He might play his way into the conversation but I can’t see him starting over more veteran guys as the #1 or the #2.

I find the Team Canada brass tend to be pretty conservative when it comes to goalie selections.

I don’t really think that it’s a good thing.

 

[Old Man Jags]

Goodness me, not a score I expected after the first period. But all still to play for.

The Swiss seem to have derived confidence from the fact that their quarterfinal jinx against the Germans did not kick in again this year.

 

[ORRFForever]

Well....................there was nothing positive about that period, can't change my ways with play like that.

 

[CuuuJooo]

How many times did Canada miss the net in the first?

If I weren’t going to a party later today, I would have already cracked open a beer.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Come on...

Binnington is not that good. Montembault is a better goaltender.

 

[snipes]

Josi is one of the best D in the world.

After watching the series against Vancouver, I’d take Josi over Hughes any day. Hughes was vastly outplayed by Bouchard.

Josi doesn’t get talked about enough for just how elite he is.

 

[Smif]

One thing I know for sure, Suisse viewers will not enjoy the game while we're down, this will be hell for them now.

 

[Mestaruus]

One PP for Canada and 1-2 would be good for the match now.

 

[NyQuil]

One thing I know for sure, Suisse viewers will not enjoy the game while we're down, this will be hell for them now.

I'll wager they'll enjoy it more than if they were losing 2-0.

 

[ORRFForever]

Binnington is not that good. Montembault is a better goaltender.

It's not the point. He's been good but, all you need is 2 goals that NO ONE could have stopped, and the Canadian fan base wants him tarred and feathered. We suck.

 

[Mathieukferland]

If Tourigny holds everyone to the same standard, McCann should have his ice time greatly reduced for taking a needless penalty, but something tells me that won’t happen

 

[ORRFForever]

One thing I know for sure, Suisse viewers will not enjoy the game while we're down, this will be hell for them now.

Trade ya.

The worst? Have you met us Czech posters, especially if the team selection is not what we wanted before the tournament? I refer you to our posts last year

Though I will say that the fans at the games are always amazing and support the team like crazy even if things are not going well. But us armchair warriors…

I am an esti Anglo. There are many Anglos in Quebec although the Francos are the majority.

The vast majority of Quebecers are bilingual, speak both French & English well.

The reason people think that it is only French is because of the political/social issues that are exacerbated by our politicians.

Yeah but I think Hughes played injured so he wasn't 100%, now I would take Josi before Hughes also Josi he's more complete defenseman

Better 2-0 up than 2-0 down but yeah, I'm nervous as hell.
