Game Thread: Canada vs. Norway

[dash]

A tentative first period and based on some comments on the CBC website, quite a few people need to be talked in from off the ledge.

Fire Yzerman!

Don Cherry was just corrected by Ron, "Norwegians not Finns".. Cherry responds "Same thing"

maniacal laugh by Pierre Lebrun at the intermission after being asked about his thoughts on the first period

"people have short memories ... we saw the same thing game 1 in vancouver versus norway - 0 - 0 after 1 period ... it ended 8 - 0"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH


/oh ... he sounds like hes in the vodka

Canada was just...off. I feel like Babcock needs to give lines longer shifts or something. I swear every time a line got on, they were immediately off.

 

[pixburgher66]

Also: take shots guys. SO much fancy, and very few shots. As I type, Kunitz shoots it quickly. There you go. Need that.

 

[pixburgher66]

Best shift Canada has had all game with the Crosby-Carter-Kunitz line. Cycled a bit, good possession. Hogan's Heroes up for the task.

 

[pixburgher66]

Refs sure seem very content keeping their whistles at their side.

Shea Weber makes it 1-0 Canada

 

[pixburgher66]

Weber UNLOADS one, and Hogan way too deep to stop it.

Whatcha gonna do when the Weber-maniacs unload slappers on you?

 

[pixburgher66]

I feel like Jeff Carter on the Crosby line is a good idea on paper, but man he's missed some beautiful chances on the ice.

Hide. Cry. Wet self.

Hide. Cry. Wet self.

not necessarily in that order

 

[pixburgher66]

not necessarily in that order

Wet self is likely first, but the other two are interchangeable/simultaneous.
