December 27, 20177 yr comment_311057 Canada's going to be a really interesting team to watch this year. No real superstar to carry the load, so they might just rally together as a true "team" and do it by committee...
December 27, 20177 yr comment_311058 An okay win overall yesterday. Canada took way too many bad penalties, though. That lack of discipline can't become a habit, especially against stronger opponents.
December 27, 20177 yr comment_311059 fwiw, Finland is supposed to be one of the best teams in the tourney this year, along with Sweden and the US...

I honestly don't know **** about CHL hockey, as most of us don't, but I heard one of the talking heads on TSN say that, anyhow...
December 27, 20177 yr comment_311067 US is ok... They beat a bad Denmark team tho so it proves nothing... Id say Canada Finland The US and Sweden are all equals this tournament. Truly in short tourneys it comes down to goaltending... That US goalie is legit tho.

US looks really good but I have a hard time saying Canada can't beat them. Canada has a pretty good team. I think they made a couple bizarre choices on who to keep and who not to keep but still a very strong team.

Watching him out there he did remind me of Armia. Big kid! Edited December 27, 20177 yr by kelownabomberfan

December 28, 20177 yr comment_311144 Solid win over Slovakia last night. A little dicey when Bean went down and missed some time, especially with Clague already out. But it was good he returned to action last night. Blue line needs to be healthy for tomorrow's outdoor tilt.
December 28, 20177 yr comment_311146 They're saying the outdoor game might be moved inside if it doesn't warm up a bit. I'm excited to see how Canada matches up with the US.

Anything can happen obviously and there's lots of game left but.... The US would be exhausted from chasing the game yesterday, quick turnaround and then cold weather, grueling game against the Canadians. I bet USA Hockey wishes they had scheduled this differently. US - Sweden first round playoff game?

December 30, 20177 yr comment_311363 Did the cold affect our team more than the US? Two goal collapse in the third period followed by a dreadful shootout. That. Was. Bad.

Bad. it shouldn't because both Canada and the US are used to the cold, it's clear that Mother Nature doesn't like hockey
