I've already seen Doughty give up one, at least it'd give a boost to the PP.

Horrible bench management by Babcock in this one.

Getzlaf and Perry were horrible particularly the former yet they kept going out. Toews did absolutely nothing with Crosby and Nash yet stayed on that line for the third period. Nash has also been brutal.

Hmmm so judging by the way this game is going I guess Babcock is going to start the shootout with Iggy?

This is some serious poor coaching! In a game like this you need the guys who seriously go to war, the Morrow's, Iginla's, and Richards. Instead Babcock has given a ridiculous amount of ice time to the Sharks line. I always thought Babcock was a great coach but now I am starting to think the Red Wings made him look good.

Na, he's just not playing. Coaching staff opting to go with guys like Toews even though he has done absolutely nothing.

This. Team Canada is losing points because Getzlaf just didn't have enough foot speed.

Hopefully we win in OT and this is the closest any team gets to us the rest of the way because the guys bust their asses and outwork the other teams....oh and our PP starts to score.

You suck Babcock. What a waste of a point. Why bother having all the players on the team if you are only going to roll 2 lines. Idiot.

Is Babcock looking to get hired by the Sharks? His lover affair with the San Jose line is beyond ridiculous. Nothing against them but holy hell...use your bench.

If Iginla was injured from a head shot he wouldn't even be on the bench with a concussion.
