Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted January 4, 2014 Glad that little guy on Russia got the player of the game. He had a really good tournament up to now and he was one of the only Russian players that didn't act like a D-bag. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted January 4, 2014 Sweden - Canada is going to be an epic battle. I'm cheering for Sweden because they are the hometown team and for sure the underdog, but whoever wins deserved it. 1 Ekmanc reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm cheering for Sweden because they are the hometown team and for sure the underdog, but whoever wins deserved it. Once our Canadian boys dispose of your other arch rivals that is. They need to stomp Finland like the Czech's should have before they s*** the bed. I wouldn't call the Swedes the underdog in this tournament though. Top to bottom they're the best team. I really hope Sweden has no suspensions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really hope Sweden has no suspensions. I'm not from Sweden just cheering for them, because I think winning infront of your hometown fans is epic and just like the Canadians the Swedes should get a feel of that too. But for sure not going to be butthurt if Canada wins. I've seen how Canada handled a very good Swiss team so to me - once again- they are the team to beat. Sweden is going to have even more pressure tomorrow but the atmosphere will be outstanding going to DVR that game for sure. 1 Z Winged Dangler reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted January 4, 2014 I think the Fins are going to put a good fight and they certainly won't hand it to Canada, but with Sutter behind the bench there is no way they are going to take this game lightly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted January 4, 2014 What a brutal period of hockey! The announcers keep talking about how Mantha lurks in the shadows and you don't notice him too much until he gets on the board, well if Drouin passes him the puck earlier in the game he'd be far more engaged. I like Drouin, but his dipsydoodling around and not getting the puck deep or dishing it off is cooling off his line mates. Not impressed with Drouin's 1st period whatsoever. Make some passing plays and dangle from the corner or behind the net to get out front, not from the blue line in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ekmanc 586 Report post Posted January 4, 2014 Mantha has been really lazy on the backcheck, when he is the one who loses the puck he can't just slide back casually and hope for the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted January 4, 2014 Canada has zero offensive creativity this game. And Mantha just had a crap giveaway while no one attempted to get open. I don't wake up to watch Canada play for bronze. One thing I will not do! Droin finally shows this game what he's really good at. As soon as buddy on Finland cowered like a sissy, Drouin should have known to lay off the hit. Can't keep the momentum when you're head is up your ass. 2 and a 10 is when buddy can't take a hit like a man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted January 4, 2014 Thats Drouins's second 2+10 now... This one was crap though. He tries to finish a clean hit and buddy looks like a soccer player trying to avoid a free kick. I guess Petan and Drouin should be fresh for the 3rd . Good thing most of this team play centre usually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted January 4, 2014 These refs have been so soft. You cant duck like that and draw a call. Drouin is stupid for arguing to the point of a 10min. The first period the refs let the fins get away with loads. Also can we get some regulation glass height?! Jesus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is far from over though Canada is great at making late comebacks. If they can make the Finns take penalties like they are and sort out their crap PP, then we'll talk comeback.
