Canada still produces the most talent but the gap is closing. It's tough for these kids to win it every year with the pressure Canadians put on them, much easier for the US kids who outside of Buffalo and a couple other hockey border cities care about or even know the tournament is going on.......

I am not sure about that at their level its easier... game has caught up and Canadians and Russsians are not the only countries with lots of talent and good all year long training. Its tough to win because there is more competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brawndo Posted December 28, 2018 Report Share Posted December 28, 2018 UPL was the player of the game for Finland for their first game and Oskari Laaksonen was the player of the game for their second game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that it's great that the Sabres have a player who's initials role off the tongue very nicly ... UPL is our very own OEL, but not from Sweden.

apuszczalowski Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 Didnt realise that former Sabre Vaclav Varada is the coach of the Czech team.

Taro T Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Lukkonen looking real bad against USA tonight. 2 - 5 holes; 1 of which was from a very bad angle; and another that trickled through from a bad angle. USA up late in the 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely behind Canada but if Finland wins I hope they go all the way. This version of Team Canada gas not captured my imagination as past teams have. I'm disappointed in the D, I expected big things from Bouchard and Dobson. There's still time, potentially 3 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't catch any of the game but heard Luukkonen stopped a penalty shot. Must have played much better than the other night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted January 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 UPL keeps the Canadians to 1 goal and Finland advances. Sweden also gets shutout and the Swiss advance. USA playing well. However Samuelsson is lacking wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canadians, who come here and actively root against the USA no matter who we are playing, are out on home ice in the quarterfinals. It is utter humiliation and it is awesome. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorny Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Only 2 golds in last 10 WJC for Canada. They've had "what's wrong?" summits here for much less. It's rather a myth that Canada is a dominant team in this tourney, now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
