Don't like the way the Canadians are playing. Too defensive, they need to keep attacking.

Also yeah, bad refs being bad. That was 100% a missed call against Poulin.

These girls the Americans have are flat out faster except for one of Canada's lines. Canada is going to rely on their transition and defending to win this.

Refs have the NHL playbook. Swing the pendulum one way then the other so at the end it looks semi-reasonable.

This is more exciting than any Oilers game this year

It's not so much that the Canadians are being defensive, the Americans are speedy and it's causing problems for the Canadians.

But they aren't creating a ton of quality chances from their speed.

Exactly, how many times have we all seen this before.

 

[wahsnairb]

that is one of the worst missed calls i’ve ever seen, but at least it looks like it lit a fire under USA who had been struggling before the hit to the head.

 

[PG Canuck]

canada sitting back wayyyyyy to much

Yup. One goal is a thin cushion.

 

[snipes]

Yanks pressing like crazy

 

[PBandJ]

This is bad.

 

[fahad203]

This is definitely Babcock hockey. Collapse front of net

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Canada is going to lose if they’re sitting back for the rest of the game

 

[kingsholygrail]

No one on the US to can lift the puck. It's just sad watching it harmlessly slide in those huge pads all the time.

 

[Sheppy]

Is Claude Julien coaching Canada. Straight defense mode after 2 goals.

 

[snipes]

Wow this forum is more heated than the game

It’s Canada v USA man

 

[TheNip]

Pierre calling a women's game is a sex crime. Feels wrong and gross.

 

[Bood12]

I doubt there's any big conspiracy, these refs are just bad.

it is the truth in reality, I am guessing these international refs are used to reffing a much softer game, and when these 2 teams are together it is another level, anyone who saw the game last week saw the refs are in over their heads in these games

 

[jj cale]

But they aren't creating a ton of quality chances from their speed.

Exactly.

It really hasn't amounted to very much all game.

 

[PBandJ]

Hockey Canada really needs to start emphasizing speed. The Americans have and it's causing them all sorts of issues.

 

[fahad203]

Jokes on you. Julien's team don't score 2 goals a game
