GDT: WJHC: Canada vs Česko

[The Blue Baron]

Ondre Pavs old buddy. Laying off the Pils these days eh? lol

Good to see ex Jet there.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

You’re lame.

You think a .868 is alright?

yOure LamE!!!!!

 

[NewEraGM]

You can still see how they play. These players don't play like it means nothing they still try. Fantilli is just not up to snuff yet. I think he had very high potential and will be a solid player but hes obviously not good enough for this tournament. We left a lot of talent at home which would have been better suited.

How is he not good enough yet??? That makes no sense. He’s DOMINATING a league of 18-22 year olds

It’s not like the Czechs are loaded with stars. It’s probably similar in talent to what he would face in the NCAA, which he dominates. Have you thought that maybe it just an off night???

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

I watch Zellweger Korchinski Stankoven alot and they aren't doing anything like they usually do at all tonight. Haven't been impressed with those 3.... And those are guys that need to be going

This is all I picture in regards to this game:

 

[Czechboy]

No hate lol

We have enough problems these days

Future is bright!

 

[Svencouver]

Soft, zero intensity and playing extremely individualistic hockey. I don't know how many times I've seen guys try to go 1 on 4.

GG Canada

Also the vibe I got. Czechs are definitely playing a better system and have stronger team play. Very impressed with their defense

 

[DearDiary]

I disagree with the intensity They've worked hard. Nothing had gone their way.

I would never call a perimeter game hard work.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Welcome to IIHF rules. First time?

45th still dislike it.

 

[LemonSauceD]

Awesome game by the Czechs, enjoy the win Czech fans!

Is it weird that I'm kind of enjoying my own country lose like this? Let's see if they can get it together by the QF.

Definitely enjoyed the game, didn’t like we lost but I mean it makes games more enjoyable knowing it’s not some 8-1 cruise fest until the quarter or semi final.

Canada learned a huge lesson tonight.

 

[canucksfan]

I thought for sure Canada would score another goal by now.

 

[Realgud]

I did not say that. I said they make shit game altering calls.

Yep, I really hate when the refs follow the rule book. Much prefer the arbitrary "game management" and the playoffs rule changes that the NHL does.

 

[93gilmour93]

Well not a good start for Canada. Put this game behind them and go take it out on Germany next game…..

 

[Kcb12345]

I missed the 1st period and half of the 2nd but Stankoven has looked really good in the shifts I've seen

I’d like em all but I’m on trolling probation.

He's just not good here. Lots of these kids could go to Michigan and dominate. Thats means nothing. It's a good team. Stats watching isn't how you build a team.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

These entry decisions are bad

 

[Czechboy]

We're even now, lol

Enjoy the win, good game by you guys.

I am shocked.. when you win one in 30 years.. you tend to be skeptical. I think our keys are a very good D core. a hot goalie and the fact that most these guys played together in summer. I think 17 returnees. A lot of our guys are in form too.. and our 4th line is huge.. which helps in close games as they can grind away.. the short guy is 6'4.lol

 

[Master P]

Reffing in this tournament is outrageously soft

Almost as soft as team canada.

 

[HabSgt]

Suchanek was awesome at the Sabres camps he attended too.

He played in net against us & I was happy to see him (not against us but...you know what I mean)

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

canada sucks ass lol

 

[Panthaz89]

Stankoven was playing alright.

 

[ryan callahan]

Second knee on knee. Team Canada is dirty as f***. Is Subban the coach or what?

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Lot of things to fix for next game

 

[Sasha Orlov]

This Canadian team looks terrible

Bedard is the only player that doesn’t look totally disinterested
