Didnt hear him say that, but it would make sense.

Canada having trouble scoring. Playing down to the opposition?

[Paulie Walnuts]

It’s best he stay away from Dave Cameron.

He can play with his future teammate McKenna next year.

That would be interesting. Do they actually carry additional reserve players?

Mike Johnson calling the lack of changing the lines up… we’re not the only ones baffled.

This Cowan/Ritchie line is absolutely horrible, both guys fighting to try and do it all solo followed by shots 20 yards out.. this is just sad to watch.

They have one good line, Catton, McKenna and Pinelli. Leave that one together and throw the blender on for the other lines.

Eventually Cameron is going to realize he needs a shooter on the PP and will put Pinelli on one of the units. Christ I would just throw out the Catton line with whatever on the backend at this point for one of the units.

Ethan Gauthier looks like he got his dad’s hands around the net.

Latvia must be absolutely salivating going into the 3rd with a very realistic chance of winning this game.

Sure looks like we could use some goal scoring eh Cameron?

No he won't. He's either not that bright or just plain stubborn.

Brouwer Play

[midniteowl]

This Cameron coached team gonna get slaughter by the American.

[Royle9]

lol at the panel absolutely giving it to the power play units and terrible decisions.
“They really need a PP quarterback specialist”

Parekh at home rolling his eyes.

Which forwards would get canned from this roster for goal scoring? He picked some guys for offence that made sense, like Pinelli, but they definitely look like they could use more.

[jayswin]

Canada still striking out with uniforms these days. They had so many good designs back in teh day and that at some point they just started going with hokey roller hockey looking jerseys and kits.

Like serious, it's already a goofy jersey and then you add maple leafs to the socks like a ball hockey team?

[PegCityFlamesFan]

I don't get the 0 adjustments but this team just looks like a bunch of decent players going rogue doing their own thing against a 1-4 defense.

[GirlySports]

Are we all cheering for an equalizer now?

I would have taken both Christal and Sennecke over just about anyone not named McKenna.

Yager has looked awful.
Ritchie is a one man show on how not to play.
Cataford is obsolete though not playing much.
Gauthier isn’t very noticeable.

There’s 4 you can swap out.

So before the tournament you would have gassed Ritchie and Yager for Cristal and Sennecke? Team Canada would never have a team with no players from Quebec so the last two names would not be an option.m

I would have swapped Beaudoin for Sennecke myself, not sure why he is on the team.

[FlamingHomer]

The wave with 10 minutes left.

[dammage79]

Leaving productive players like Misa and Parekh is going to bit Canada in the arse. Badly.
