WOW Norway scored a sweet goal.........what's up with Canada?

I am glad Norway is back though, I remember them from the past they used to be scary then they disappeared for many years....... whatever happened to them...

What's happening? Penalties, penalties, a few more penalties.. Doesn't look like the canada I know.

Aurelia- 05-08-2008
GO NORWAY GO! You can do this!! Even a point from Canada would be so sweet! This is why I love hockey smile.gif.

Canada finally squeezed the 3 points out of Norway. Their talent was just too much. Were those the Canadian retro jerseys? I hope they won't have to wear them again, because they look ugly. Especially those blue patches oh the sleeves that do not go with the colour scheme at all.

I am sure CANADA will keep the 1st place in POWER RANKINGS anyway smile.gif They won, they are the host nation, they are Canada ! smile.gif)) It must have been the tactics...

Yeah Canada won after all and that really wasnt a shock. Norwegian goalie had an awesome day but Canada didnt had too much real scoring changes except all the breakaways when shorthanded. Only thing what I clearly didnt liked was the refs line to give stupid penalties side by side and Canada should have been at the box a bit more often but Norway also had their changes so Im not blaiming them for a loss and we all know the better team.

Also Norway will probably be in the quarters anyway and so will be Team Canada so the proud was in stake only.

Canada didnt had the retro jersey,those were the jerseys them are using in the games. Im not liking them neither but the retro jersey them used against USA was cool to see. Ok them were from the 70´s but them kept to have the same look even for the early 90´s biggrin.gif .

but a nice win up there and congratulations for it

Aurelia- 05-08-2008
Zereks, yes, Canada is the host, which is exactly why it won't win. It's the curse you know...

schmeep- 05-08-2008
one of those games for tc, they didn't look particularly sharp and just couldn't capitalize.

Ray Canuck- 05-08-2008
TC is far too cute for my liking!!!
Hell do they want to carry the puck across the goal line?
And then those extra passes....

Man I was pissed off at our guys today

Note to TC
if they collapse in front of the net blast the friggin puck from the points
Lets see how long they'll hang out then.....
I hope Hitch gives it to them guns a blazin'

unacceptable!

Kudo's to Norway they made us look bad indeed.....
We were lucky not to get that late high stick....another 5:3 and Norway just might have pulled off another Belarus!

Yep...we have at least 1 a Tourney....so much of our game is emotion...just wasn't there today....

I didn't get a chance to see the whole game...BUT I did see most of the first period + last 8 minutes of the third ...meaning that I saw ALL the goals...

It wasn't all doom n gloom for our Canucks...by any means...Although yeah they're still being far too cute/ overpassing the puck...and yeah, on the pp they need to work the puck back to the point, & let one go more often , with a man crowding the crease ( a la Detroit ) ....rather than making so many low percentage passes, or taking nothing shots, from bad angles , when there's nothing avail down low... STILL...

That strategy of having a dman sneak up into the slot is pretty nice !

& How about Rick Nash eh ? ...bustin to the net like a runnaway train , time and again... What a Friggen ' MONSTER !!! '

OH CANADA
