GDT: USA Vs Czech Republic | 12/29 @ 2PM ET | TSN/NHLN

[ORRFForever]

The color guy is pretty unbearable. Pierre has got nothing on this guy as far as name dropping goes and he repeatedly talks over the game.

I like Ray - assuming your are watching TSN, but I miss Pierre.

 

[Czechboy]

Hugo Has and Kucerik looking really bad out there. Zero creativity or ability. Svozil and Niricek need more minutes. Kubicek as well.

More Kubicek for sure... Still not sure why Kucerik leads us in minutes?

 

[bsu]

I thought Caufield was really bad that period.

 

[Hooz]

Why are Zegras and Caufield not on the same line?

It’s weird today’s “prime time” game is Russia versus Austria. Prime tv time in North America I mean.

Dave Starman is the worst

 

[Satanphonehome]

From what I’ve seen over the tourney, the US really needs another RD. Faber has been good, but Lacombe has been skittish, Thrun just doesn’t look skilled enough and Helleson has bits of both issues.

Extraordinarily bad. Just needs to simplify.

 

[Tralfamadore]

Don't see anything more than a second liner for Turcotte. Doesn't have high end skill

LA fans can't wait for this tournament to end lol

Their prospects getting bashed constantly.

Byfield
Turcotte
Kaliyev

 

[bsu]

The whole top line needs to be blown up imo.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Why are Zegras and Caufield not on the same line?

Because Caufield has been bad.

 

[Mats26]

Maybe they sent the wrong Caufield?

They sent, Cold Caufield

Well it's nice for us Europeans atleast, not having the interesting games in the middle of the night

 

[GordieGallant]

Classic trap. Keep it simple, put the puck behind the D and forecheck.

 

[Chainshot]

I thought Caufield was really bad that period.

Looks like he's pressing -- overhandling the puck early, then winging shots from really low percentage areas later.

I like Ray - assuming your are watching TSN, but I miss Pierre.

I think he's talking about Starman, not Ferraro or Button.

Haven't seen Byfield much, but I think LA's pool gets very overrated. Although, I think Vilardi is a stud.

2 of the above are floaters

 

[GettingYourMoms]

It's like Raska can't get through a game without doing something dumb.

He´s asshole, and i love it!

 

[Tralfamadore]

Because Caufield has been bad.

I've been told it's the coach's fault tho

 

[NorCalhockey]

Dave Starman is the worst

Different strokes for different folks. I think he has some insightful comments, especially when he talks about a player’s college hockey career. But I still prefer the TSN crew.

 

[letsgrowcactus]

Well, so far we've been holding our own. Just don't collapse if/when the US score the first goal...

 

[Tralfamadore]

Kaliyev certainly is. Never been a fan.

 

[czechcanadian]

More Kubicek for sure... Still not sure why Kucerik leads us in minutes?

Makes no sense. Guess cause he’s the alternate captain? Lol

Actually looking forward to it continuing since it seems that every game features a Kings prospect.

 

[ValeriKamensky]

USA makes the same mistakes as Russia. They need more grit and power in front of the net - screen goaltender, create rebounds. Passing along the boards is not the right way to win against Czechs, Russians confirmed
