Game Thread: Canada vs. Switzerland - WJHC

Is it wrong to cheer for Slovakia to upset Sweden?

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Congrats Canadians!

Quick whistle wipes out a Swedish goal...and Sweden gets a penalty (goalie interference).

Sweden leads 1-0 as two Slovak players collide...

2-0 Sweden after one period and if not for some great saves by the Slovak goalie, it could be easily be 4-0 or 5-0.

Looks like Russia is going to get another crack at them.

/After the Russkies performance today, I'm rooting for Tre Kronor.

[jstewismybastardson]

they were saying on the radio broadcast that Sweden is really into this u20 tournament now ... that 2 tv swedish networks really bid up the broadcast rights for the tournament this year

nice to see another country care and it move away from being a tsn creation

That Forsberg for Erat trade looks terrible for the Capitals...

Button defending Wash on that trade right now. felt that Caps were close to contending for the cup and should have made that trade.

can I have Button Mute Button?

lol - Yeah I heard the case Button was making, but I don't buy it - C'mon, it's Martin Erat we're talking about.

Craig Button is a dunce

Forsberg goes roof daddy and Sweden puts another behind the Slovak goalie.

6-0

Oh and DaBolts - Griffen Reinhart was player of the game for Canada today. He sure has bolstered Canada's defense since coming into the lineup.

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Nice to see Reinhart have a good game.

 

[Judge Fudge]

i watched this game on DVR.

I think the big change happened when Suter smartened up and realized that Jake Patterson is not worthy of starting for Canada after the checz game(good riddence to them) and started a goalie who if he was not drafted last year. Top 15 this year

FU-CAL-EEE

Thanks dash. Sorry I must have posted just after you did. I don't know what kind of numbers he's going to put up, but he's so smooth & patient with the puck. I wasn't sure about the pick at the time, but I like it a lot now.

 

[puckhead]

how many games in now and puckhead still has not been on TV. hes been doing something wrong there

We got some screen time in the Canada-USA game, though maybe that stayed on the cutting room floor.

Meanwhile, Germany lost 3-0 to Norway in a relegation game earlier today.

That's great to see. The vikings here are hilarious, and generally pretty hammered.

Still think he is missing a step. Timing is off, skating is off. Room for improvement, and we are going to need it.


Liking bo's game more and more.
Petan is picking up steam as well.
