[GDT] 2016 WJC: Quarterfinals. 4 games. Canada vs Finland 9AM MT

[Resolute 14]

Shots 16-2 Russia in the third so far... god love the goaltending of the little nations.

[Itse]

The difference in players is just ridiculous to watch. Seems like every Russian is bigger, faster, stronger and more skilled than any Dane.

Damn. Russia ties with less than a minute left.

Not surprising, but too bad for Denmark. Just couldn't clear the puck.

[Itse]

Russians are pretty much toying with Denmark on the OT. They're obviously that much better, but that softness could cost them. All it takes is that one mistake.

EDIT: And that does it. Russia takes it.

[sureLoss]

Sweden up 2-0 on Slovakia with less than 4 minutes to play in the 1st.

[getbak]

Damn. You gotta feel bad for the Danish goalie. So close to one of the biggest upsets ever.

Probably in the same way that Eichel challenged Mcdavid. He/they are in the conversation but Matthews is going first.

[cofias]

I just love Forsling's game. I wish we could pick him up somehow, but for now, at least he won't be a dirty Canuck. Cannot believe they just gave him away.

[Eb0la11]

Anyone know where I can stream this game while residing in the USA?

[Fredrik]

Ollas Mattson down with knee injury. Just left the game.

[cofias]

Ouch... Ollas Mattsson into the locker room, fell onto his own knee. Played the puck away from danger before he stepped off though

Less than 12 hours until the puck drop for the Flames and Avs and no GDT yet? I am going to the game tonight with my daughter, so was hoping to see it up this morning.

Looks like Sweden has a comfortable grip on this game. 3-0 less than 8 minutes left in the 2nd.

If Sweden holds on, they will face the winner of Canada vs Finland in the Semis.

[cofias]

Dima Timashov is so slick with the puck, and occasionally his movement reminds me of Johnny.

Ollas Mattsson out for the game. Team doctor as usual tight lipped about the injury

Damn. That is disappointing.

I was really hoping for McDonald to have a great tourney.

Whether it was his fault or not Mcdonald lost the net when they lost to the states in the first game.

[Schraderbrau]

Let's hope Canada can put it all together now that it matters. Defence needs to play tougher in front of the net, swedes dominated us down low.

Let's go boys!!

Blackwood was their #1 going into the tournament, he would had to be terrible for them to go with MacDonald. On the other side MacDonald needed to stand on his head in the USA game to steal the #1 job.

[sureLoss]

Great start for Canada

[bigtmac19]

Aghhhhhhh Strome

[Schraderbrau]

Blackwood has been alright but not great. He needs to maintain better rebound control, he has let a lot of soft rebounds out that have cost us.
