Where's John Carlson when you need him?




Oh yeah, scoring against the Rangers

I've been on this board since I was in high school.

If people think this thread is heated, they should've seen the Vancouver 2010 gold medal game thread, or the Saskatoon WJC gold medal game thread.

Here's to a tremendous 3rd period, and maybe even some overtime to further this excellent rivalry.

 

[Leafs27]

I have a feeling that the Americans are going to light it up in the 3rd. But I'm a pessimistic guy

I am also nervous. We're playing sloppy. Not confident in our D. (Except King Chabot.)

 

[Anthony5967]

It is a period like this that turns these kids into stars. The Keller's , the White's, the McAvoy's. Let's see what they got here in the third. Keller has been relatively quiet.

 

[Hanji]

Great match up. But Canada's gotta stay on their feet. This is too good of a game to resort to stuff like that.

This is go time! May the best team win!

Or when Bettman rigged the lottery last year.

USA has a helluva team. Lots of talent there. Canada has to bring our A game in the third to have a chance at winning this thing.

Canada has not been diving.

Other than Chabot & Lauzon or defense has been Bambi on ice...

 

[GKJ]

Chabot is over 22 minutes already. He might not come off the ice the rest of the game.

I swear one day I'll learn the rules of curling

 

[McJesu]

It's pretty much in coin flip territory, tournament is going to come down to one or two moments in this period.

 

[Alerion]

We need to get back to the basics in the third. Dump, chase, out work, and create chances. We're not skilled enough to play how we did in the 2nd period.

 

[clunk]

What is The Weeknd doing on team USA?

 

[Confucius]

I picked Canada but it's really a coin flip anything can happen. Both great teams fun to watch but in the end it doesn't mean much anyway.

 

[jj cale]

They are trying to mesmerize the whole tournament with their Bruce Lee mythical moves...

LOL.

You're full of them tonight.

 

[Captain Bowie]

Where's John Carlson Jordan Eberle when you need him?

Not scoring against Boston.

 

[Weast]

I swear one day I'll learn the rules of curling

You mean the IIHF?

 

[Anthony5967]

I love the puck!!!!

 

[Jacksonbobson]

More Dube, Cirelli and Stephens

less

Jost, Strome and Speers

please.

 

[Beezeral]

Canada has not been diving.

Yea, ok....

 

[Rusty Shackleford]

Same here. It's sad though because they're missing a hell of a tournament. I look forward to this every year.[/QUOTE

Totally agree. Some of the best young players on display. I love the sport so much though that like you, I cannot wait for this tourney.

There's a reason that this tournament has long been a Christmas/New Year tradition in Canada, and is now blowing up ratings wise in Sweden, Finland, Russia..

Just excellent hockey, most people look forward to December for Christmas. I look forward to it for the WJC's.

Here's to an excellent 3rd period between two great teams.

Team Canada took Drake so he defected.

He's Brett Hulling that ****.

White and McAvoy had a good 2nd

Triple shift Cirelli
