WC: May 07 GDT - Canada vs. Norway

Official website: http://live82.ihwc.net/english/

Should be easy... 7:2 Can

Who will get the start? Alex Auld ??? :dunno:

Should be Denis, Auld serving as a backup and probably seeing only 1 game in a tournament. But still, this could be his game.

Auld gets the start tonight. The game starts in a minute.

Game Is Now Underway.

BERGERON! 1-0 Canada. :handclap: 2-0, BOYES! :handclap:

Norway clearly the better team early
2 stupid giveaways = 2 canadian goals

Wow, we have a serious goalie problem! :help:

This might get ugly...

COMRIE, BEAUTIFUL! :handclap:

How's Auld looking?

9 penalties in the first period, wow.

Crosby with 2 assists already. :yo:

The two Bruin stars and Crosby geting it done again for Canada.

Crosby with a goal

CROSBY :handclap:

Go Cros... er, Canada! :) I wonder if Canada will crush Norway... USA couldn't do it.

Williams makes it 5-0. :handclap:

Crosby is AMAZING!

WILLIAMS!

Bergeron now has a goal and 4 assists this tournament, Crosby 3 goals and 2 assists whilst Boyes has 2 goals and an assist. Hopefully Canada v Russia it'll be this line against the Ovechkin/Malkin?(Semin?) line.

I think Sushinsky is the third guy on that line. Semin and AO are both LW, so they are on separate lines.

6-0

Nice one, Bergeron! :handclap:

Crosby putting on a clinic again, 4 points halfway thru the game.

I'm following through the IIHF site and they say its 7-0?:dunno:

7-0 shanahan scores!

Norway have really stepped it down a level. With the exception of their top line the rest of the team look like they are scared to death. It has been an exceptionally poor performance from their defense. They have not been able to read the rush, they have not been able to make adequate breakout passes, they have not been able to be in position around their net and they have been unable to collect pucks off their defensive walls to even start the breakout. Couple that with a goalie who cannot make a big save and you have a disaster. Norway have been well beyond disappointing and its not like my expectations were high to begin with.

This is REALLY getting sad now lol. Start Auld next game!

LOL, talk about a butt kicking!

Now IIHF says its 8-0?

Can't see the game in New England, but it sounds like Bergeron is his usual self.

Check out his goal at this site, and vote for it if you like it. He is trailing badly in the voting, but it's a great end to end rush.

quick link (http://www.rbkgreatestgoal.ca/vote.asp)

You can vote once a day.

Shanahan scored the 8th goal?

Shanahan scored the 8th goal?

Shanahan scored the 7th goal, according to my TV it's still 7-0. Norway just changed their goaltender.

I like Patrick Thoresen... good energy and grit... doesn't give up on the plays...

Nevermind, IIHF fixed their site and have it at 7-0, they counted the Bergeron goal twice for some reason.

24-19 Norway leads in faceoffs

Norway gets 1 goal, oh well, the game is out of reach for them now, anyway.

Thanks for pulling the game off, TSN.

Thanks for pulling the game off, TSN.

What reason did they give?

Norway's embassy called and told them to turn it off

What reason did they give?
Colorado vs anaheim game...

What reason did they give?

To put on avs/ducks, and probably because the score is 7-2, but still I'd like to see the end of it anyway.

What reason did they give?

Since it's a blowout and pretty much over, they went to the Ducks Avs game.

What reason did they give?

James Duthie said that it was because Canada was in control..plus the game took longer then they expected.

Colorado vs anaheim game...

So if it was close they still would have gone to the NHL playoff game? It was scheduled that way from the start?

guess I should type faster

IIFH website says that the game has ended, final is 7-1 Canada.

I seriously can't watch these games... They are too annoying. Muting the TV is too weird for me..

Those stupid ****ing duck noise makers drive me crazy.

Totally agree. I know it seems to be a common practice in Russian sports and some other parts in Eastern europe, but It's definitely EXTREMELY annoying. Any indications of a high occurence of tinitus cases in Russia yet? ;)
