GDT: Sweden vs. Canada | 12 February 2025 | 8:00 p.m. EST, 2:00 a.m. CET, 3:00 a.m. EET

Weegar got jobbed out of a spot on this team. Guy is better than half the d-man playing for Canada this game.

 

[PaulD]

Marner is not the right player for McDavids line, put Point or Hagel there

I would have Hyman, Scheifele and Wilson over Marner on this team

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

The skill level is great...but it definitely feels two steps down from past olympics best on best.

The intensity and atmosphere just aren't there to the extent I was hoping, the skill is fantastic though.

Feels like somewhere between a regular season game and a playoff game. Really lame that ot is 3 on 3 though.

 

[johnnyonthspot]

ruh roh canada about to choke?

No choke when the tourney is a joke

 

[Blanka]

Huge kill boys. They showed toughness and gray. They didn't give up. They know what it takes to kill a penalty.

Are you typing this on a typewriter?

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Bedard would be ripping it up beside McDavid

I agree. Said so before the tourney started.

 

[Gnome17]

Have a feeling Canada will score before OT

 

[NinjaKick]

Kempe has been noticeable all game, very underrated player

 

[kingsfan2012]

Marner the perrenial big game choker should not be on this team

 

[ZDH]

Marner isn't helping the big moment narrative...

 

[ViD]

Sweden is now outshooting Canada

Shocking

 

[Theodore450]

Not a best on best without Germany

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Parayko, Doughty, Marner and Reinhart have been pure ass

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Stop with the damn excuses.

Does 'Canada's goaltending sucks' count as an excuse?

 

[heretik27]

I would Hyman, Scheifele and Wilson over Marner

Bedard on McDavid's wing to finish some of his setups would have been an upgrade on that line over Marner.

 

[Ghetty Green]

Sounds like he is always playing injured

Yet he plays every game. Why would an injured player be playing in this tournament ? His own teammate is sitting out and he actually is injured

 

[TonsofPuppies]

Just gonna say it. This team is kinda ass. Really bad lines by Cooper. Put Crosby with MacK and the Rat. Point with Marner.

 

[Killing Joke]

Zibanejad fails on every puck touch, cant control it

He skates about as slow as Remepes brain works.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Marner should be scratched for the next game. A complete non factor.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Three minutes left.

Go for broke. Stack McDavid, Crosby, Mckinnon together.

 

[Regal]

The skill level is great...but it definitely feels two steps down from past olympics best on best.

The intensity and atmosphere just aren't there to the extent I was hoping, the skill is fantastic though.

Definitely not the same but feels like it’ll be a fun little break still. Glad it’s a short tournament though. Would be a bit much if this was as long as the Olympics.

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

Does 'Canada's goaltending sucks' count as an excuse?

Sure, binnington is bad.

 

[onmygameboi]

Parayko, Doughty, Marner and Reinhart have been pure ass

Some asses are nice to look at.

 

[Nikki Potnick]

Have a feeling Canada will score before OT

Yea, me too

Casual fans

Same ones who think Bedard should be playing.
