Marner and Strome were invisible in that period. They need to show up.

I thought Blackwood looked shaky in that first period.

Virtanen to me is like Curtis Glencross. Fast, physical and can score but doesn't have the IQ to play to his talent level.

Hope Canada wins a high scoring one where Blackwood lets in total softies so it's McDonald's net.

It is incredible how selfish and lacking in hockey IQ Virtanen is. And he isn't big enough to survive in the NHL on size alone - he can create space in junior with his physical play, but that won't happen in the NHL. So glad the Nucks drafted him.

I was not impressed with Blackwood either.

Oh well, it doesn't really matter because this team doesn't have what it takes to win gold anyway.

I think they really screwed up the whole goaltending situation right from the start. They basically anointed Blackwood as the #1 right from the start and its created chaos because of the lack of confidence and competition.

Finlands #1 line has to be looking down right frightening to Canada right now. Lowry needs to use Stephens and Konecny more

It's a long way to go to the end of the season but there are 3 incredible RW prospects that will likely be in the top 5 the Flames could use. The golden parachute for missing the playoffs if they do. Nylander, Laine and Puljujarvi all look amazing. Any one of them would look utterly amazing beside Bennett or Gaudreau.

Ah man I'm dreaming. I think we make the playoffs tho, and if we don't we will be a bubble team. Maybe Tre can pull off some slick moves.

Maatson dumps Konecny for a penalty. Well the refs aren't putting up with anything today. Jeez that was standard scrum.

Konecny is going to make a good pest.

Initiated the hit and then the second the hand was on his head he collapsed.

That was a pretty weak penalty I'd say.

Lowry looks to be rolling only 4 d men too. Haven't seen Fleury or Hickey out there yet.

This is just ridiculous. I think there have been more powerplays in this game than 5 on 5 time.
