He's absolutely unreal. Future Art Ross winner.

Well I'll give you the early lead on your prediction, he just put us ahead, lol

Their not calling that at this point in the game in an exhibition.

Canada killing the clock beautifully.

The fact that the refs called 0 penalties this game is really stupid. Not only because there was missed calls, but because both teams need to practice special teams in the pre-tournament games. Missed opportunity for both teams.

Oh well, ready or not here we come Finland.

Night folks.

Night folks.

Now the real games begin.

Canada was clearly the better team tonight, looking forward to another WJC my friend.

Congrats Canada. The winner is a bit controversial but you played well. Your final minute was impressive as we couldn't even get a shot on net.

I could care less we lost. I thought we played well. Hrabal was great. I like how the team looked. Very happy despite the exhibition loss.

Need more from Sale, Jiricek and Galvas.

Didn't see any injuries. Happy.

Overall you can't be disappointed, you were calling 5-1 but you could have won that game just as easily as us.

Good luck in the tournament, I think you guys will be just fine from what I saw.

Nothing controversial at all about the final goal.

Yeah, odd sequence. Should have been at least one call there. Could argue Simek held the stick as well.

Canada wins the game, but Czechs win the best dressed contest.

I love the Canada Black Jerseys! I also love the Czech 'crest' jerseys. Thrilled they are back.

Looked like the Czech trying to draw a call, failing, then holding on to Gibson's stick for dear life.

Not really thrilled with that game, no special teams reps, goaltending was mildly weak, a few lines looked like they were just there to pass the time. Looking forward to the tournament starting Thursday night.

 

[Czechboy]

no special teams reps

This for sure. I wanted to see how our PK looked against Canada. I wanted to see how our PP looked too. I think Canada has a very smooth path to Semi's.
