Man, with all the canuckleheads here you'd think there would be more posts by now. I'm impressed by the OAR girls. For a gutted roster they sure are playing well as a team. The goalie is pretty solid.

 

[John Price]

Canada just scored. 1-0.

Where is everyone?

 

[John Price]

Canada scores again. 2-0.

 

[TarasenkosForearm]

Hallo. I have no dog in the fight. Boo, closed captioned because USA channel does this when so early...

 

[Jussi]

Canada 1-0.

 

[John Price]

3-0 now.

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

-Nadezhda Morozova has been impressive for a young goalie in her first Olympic tournament. Can't blame her for any of the goals so far.
-Morozova is unique in the women's game as she plays on the goal line a lot
-Canada has looked in control the entire game which is very reassuring considering their struggles under Laura Schuler from the WHC
-Happy to see Ann-Renee Desbiens get the start as she's going to be one of the goalies for Team Canada in China 2022.
-Going to guess many people aren't here because it's assumed Canada will win
-You can see the advantages and disadvantages of having a youthful Russian team. If Russia can develop these players properly we'll see Russia reach Finland's status soon.

 

[Jussi]

Canada up by 2.

 

[Jussi]

Canada 3-0 at the start of the 3rd period.

 

[offkilter]

Honestly Morozova has impressed me more than Finland's Raty so far.

 

[Jussi]

4-0 Canada.

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

Morozova finally gets beat while using the RVH. She's been challenging the Canadian shooters to shoot high and Rebecca Johnston took her up on the offer.

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

The Daoust-MPP-Agosta line is a beauty. Sad to see Morozova get pulled though as the result wasn't her fault. She's got a bright future ahead of her.

 

[JackSlater]

Good to see the women win, I may watch the replay later.

 

[MasterMatt25]

Honestly Morozova has impressed me more than Finland's Raty so far.

Any relation to Aatu Raty?

 

[tony d]

Good win for the Canadian ladies this morning.

That was a wicked top shelf snipe.

 

[DakrSnooze]

Good job ladies!

 

[JackSlater]

Good hockey, they look prepared. I look forward to the elimination games.
