Hockey Canada should be ashamed. Time to clean house.

It hurts to see Teuvo dominate like this while Jankowski struggles to play at a 0.67 point/game pace in college.

Terrible game in so many ways. Canada played terrible but wasn't helped by some weird international reffing. Drouin and Mantha should not have been separated Sutter.

But Weisbrod drove 5 hours in a blizzard to scout Janko!

If Canada can't put forth any effort in the third period of the semi finals then they don't deserve any sort of result. Combine that with Finland's great play and Ouch.

No effort? Really?

Id say they were trying their asses off but are simply outmatched by a club that can play shutdown as well as the 95 New Jersey Devils.

Im a Finland fan tomorrow though, I tell ya that. Pretty good team.

Can we count on Thor to plan an invasion of Finland?

There's no way you can blame this on the refs, although this is CP, so it's pretty standard.

We knew this team wasn't very good, this shouldn't be a surprise.

Nobody cares. Teuvo has shown nothing amazing in the Finnish league.

Deserved loss, and hopefully Hockey Canada is duly embarrassed. Although it was a down year in terms of available talent they didn't send a good team. Good players yes. Not a good team and not even the magic of Brent Sutter was able to change that.

Tough as a Canadian to support hockey like that. Not the type of hockey Canada is usually known for.

Was referring to the "injured" player, unless he's unable to play the Swedes tomorrow then it's a pretty pathetic move. Smart, but pathetic.

The team lost this game, had nothing to do with the officials.

Canada had just as many opportunities on the PP as the fins and didn't do anything with it.

The trip and penalty shot at the end of the game were both the right call.

Lost to the Czechs.
Lost to the Finns.
Barely beat the Slovaks.

Have only scored first once in all the games, including the pre-tournament games.

Absolute disaster, and I don't give this team a snowballs chance in hell of beating the Russians tomorrow for bronze.

Ugly, ugly stuff.

The best thing about this loss is that maybe Hockey Canada will change their bull#### selection criteria and go back to actual evaluation camps and choose the best team based on head-to-head play and not put together a list of top draft picks. Having the most first rounders in your lineup doesn't mean anything, unless you make your decisions based on hype.

Not much to say Canada didn't show up and the bounces/refs punished them for thinking they win by just showing up.

Canada needs to play well to win these games and can't just show up.

Another tournament without gold which sucks.

Frustrating as Canada clearly the better team and frustrating they piss away another tournament away.

Seeing Sutter there I almost forgot I was watching Team Canada and not two years ago years Flames. Same style and same results too.
