Sweden was really pushing in the last few minutes there. I think this is going to be a helluva 3rd period. Much Excite!

[sureLoss]

I wonder if these kids will have anything left in the tank both emotionally and physically for the finals tomorrow.

Thats seriously embarrassing

[skudr248]

Was just in Toronto and tried to get tickets but they're seriously so overpriced for any canada games.. I didn't even bother

[1qqaaz]

I don't think the Saddledome would ever come close to being that empty, even if it was in Alberta every year

[direwolf]

Damn, that's a lot of empty seats. Embarrassing is right.

I see now why play was almost constantly in Swedens zone that period. Cheating Canadians tilted the ice!

I live in Montreal and looked to get tickets before the Tournament. They only had game packs available which were very over-priced and forced you to see games you had no desire to attend.

Once they finally opened up single game tix, which are still over-priced, it was too late. Xmas presents had been bought, plans had been made and seats are vacant.

Habs town or not...these seats would have been much more full had Hockey Canada not tried to gouge everyone. The shame belongs at their feet IMO.

That looked like a bad chop to the face. Edit, nvm, just an errant stick

[Hey Connor, It's Mess]

Whenever I watch him play, Strome seems like he has the hockey IQ of a peanut.

Totally a high stick but it was all visor. Don't like the way Barzal went down like he got shot.

It was the same when it was in Alberta. Didn't hear any complaints, folks here just enjoy and appreciate good hockey. The turnout in Montreal is a disgrace.

I read an article and prices are because hockey Canada wants a guaranteed tournament gate whether or not the host cities make money or not.

If Dube plays this way with the Flames I'll be super happy. He's got so much energy and finishes every check.

[Yamer]

Pretty lame call on Kylington.

[cofias]

WTF is that phantom penalty???

That pretty much gets called every time though, a guy driving the net hard and the defender is reaching.

[burn_this_city]

That wasn't a penalty, played it perfectly
