WJC Group A: Dec 31 GDT - Canada vs. USA

[spook]

D

If Canada has any chance of winning we must start to be more creative on the PP, # 6 & 25 for canada , all they do is slap shots, lets try and set some plays up, it appears that all we do is have these guys take shots from the point, we have so much skill in guys like Gogliano, Bolland, Downie, Towes & Boyd yet we take 20 slap shots to get one goal.???

This is gonna be one heck of a game.

It really is going to come down to what sort of reffing we get, and judging by how disappointed the IIHF has apparently been with the officiating I'm guessing they are gonna go with a more of a 'let them play' attitude. Which plays directly into Canada's hands.

The Canadian defense has thus far in the tournament been stellar in my opinion with Staal's awesome shut-down work, and Bourdon's team leading 5 points. I predict absolutely monster games for both these guys (Staal/Bourdon).

I hope they continue to pound out the forecheck with guys like Downie just destroying opposing defensemen. Big games are needed from Pouliot and some of the other 'big guns' who aren't really living up to what we expected.

GO CANADA!

Just a reminder as we get close to gametime:

Just a friendly reminder, this is the game day thread for the Canada/United States game tonight. This is not the place to discuss politics, if you want to discuss politics, you may do so here:

Anybody who chooses to turn this into a political discussion or flame war runs the risk of getting a 7 point warning for disobeying a mod. This is a big game and there will be alot of emotions, but please think before you type. Happy New Year everyone.

TV????????????????????????????????????

Television?????????????????????????????????????


Go Canada!!!!!!!!!

At least the freakin game is available on basic cable in Canada.

The USA should never be allowed to win a big hockey game if their Pejorative Slured tv networks won't even air the damn things.


That said, they sure do have a good team this year.


Wish I could effin' watch.

 

[gobolt7]

I think its safe to say they are letting them play so far.
