Team Canada world Juniors

[rollinv4l]

so what do you all think of the Team Canada world Junior team for this year the announced the team today and no Leland Irving.:eek:

[Team_Mclaren]

no Irving is as expected, how could you say no to Bernier, that guy is better than Price imo. Mason is a solid backup as well. no Esposito was a surprise tho. either way we're gonna own

[dirty_magic]

This team is built around grit and hard work, but what else is new. The formulas been working, and I can only hope it works again.

Not really, he's been cut twice for the same reasons, no heart.

[rollinv4l]

yeah I went to the games at Father David Bauer and Esposito has really good hands and speed but not really all that good on his feet when getting hit

damn habs fans. Price is what? 2-3 since Huet's hurt?
I'm not saying he's bad goalie, i just think that Bernier can develop into a better goalie than price.

Bernier has done nothing as a pro thus far while analysts are continously complimenting the poise that Price shows at such an early age in his career. That does not mean Bernier won't be good though. I never implied that.

Bernier played his first game in the NHL before Price in England. He's also a year younger, so whats your point? actually this is a pretty stupid argument, as either one of them are still too young to show how "great" they can be. Let's look at Fleury, was he really ready for hte big league?

I agree that debating about who will be better in 5, 10, 15 yrs etc is dumb since it is highly speculative. My point was that Price is clearly the better goalie at this point in time in their early stages of their careers.

Anyone watching the tourney? Saw both games. Canada looked good, but I think can play better.

We play also-unbeaten Sweden today..and they just beat Denmark 10-1, who only lost 5-2 to to the Czechs. Looks like it'll be a good game. Puck drops at noon. and its on HD!

[Maddog55]

Awwwwwwwwwwwww man. :( 7 seconds left!! First loss since 2003. crap

[Mr_John]

That was the craziest game. Bad defense on that last goal though.

Sweden to win gold this year? They definitely are a skilled team.

Yeah it was. Canada almost looked like they thought that last rush was gonna be harmless. No19 wasn't even skating hard..he was about 5 feet behind Forsberg.

Yeah Sweden looks like they might be the one to beat this year.

[Maddog55]

[D'z Nutz]

Way to go boys! :clap: :clap:

[Melinda]

Whoo hooo! Thanks for the updates guys! Sputnik my computer here at work is a giant piece, I think running a streaming video on it would actually cause it to self distruct lol. Thanks for the updates though, on to semis we go! :clap:

[viff3r]

We're going to be in tough against the Americans...Nothing we can't handle though.

And for anyone stuck at work (like me) and the TSN streaming video doesn't work, TSN has a little scoreboard app that you can open, and it refreshes the score every minute or so.

[Dave P]

LETS GO BOYS. FUCK UP THE AMERICANS

[JRSC00LUDE]

Nothing left to do now but send those swedes back home to play their Abba 8 tracks.

[Ajay]

Be a good gold medal game. Canada will probably be a little nervous considering it was the Swedes who were the only team to beat them during the round robin.

[heinz256]

Already 1-0 Canada 1:30 into the 1st :)

[heinz256]

Woot! 2-0

[88CRX]

They're playing with fire with all this domination but no more goals.

[rmk]

Fuck, you would think that they randomly grabbed people off the street over there, gave them a set of skates and a whistle and told them to ref a hockey game. Terrible officiating.

[C4S]

BRAVO !!!! :thumbsup:

YEAH !!!

So worry!! from 2-0 to 2-2 in last min ..

YEAH !! Canada is still the best!!!!

(but hockey only .. :D )

[heinz256]
