There's no question when they call these games it's a homer call.
Canadian Market for the most part and Canadian broadcast, homer call no doubt.
 
We went down to see the first game but had plans today so we couldn't go so i didn't hear the call during the Slovakia game.For sure TSN is going to be pro-us but it is a little too much to take even for me.

How many points, if any does Perry have? Is he playing alright? (Although, heck, I could prolly put up a few points if I was playing with bergeron and Crosby! :D )

Go Canada!

Great game for Canada. Sweden was too weak though. What happened to them, no more talented players ? They had so many powerplays and didn't do anything. In fact Canada could score with two guys in the penalty box in the first period but the goalie made some saves.

Bergeron for MVP !!!
 
the sweden junior system has been struggling to produce decent players in the past few years. Great to see Canada get the win, I hope they can keep it up.

I know. As an Islander fan I cringed all day watching Nilsson play. He bailed out on each hit and made passes to no particular place on the ice! They took a pass on Zach Parise for this kid.
 
Sweden got stomped like a narc at a biker rally in spite of a rash of ridiculous penalties being called against Canada. I'm not saying they shouldn't call the stickwork - if it's zero tolerance, then those are the right calls to make - but for heaven's sake WHY wasn't Sweden being called for holding or obstruction? Heck, the way they were doing it, it should be two minutes for HUGGING.

Did you guys hear his comments on Al Montoya? Man, those were not nice. "What happens to kids like Fleury and Montoya after they're drafted? Do they just lose their work ethic? Montoya didn't even move to block that shot!"

Montoya has looked downright TERRIBLE.
He's not seeing shots, like you said, I'veseen about 5 goals go by him and he didn't move till they were lining up for the faceoff, his reaction was slow I'm telling ya. (say that like the late great rodney dangerfield.)

But Montoya has looked bad.
 
I think the one he let in against the Swiss was the worst. Where he was standing there, the Swiss player lets it go....and it's between his skates. He looked like he didn't even notice that it hit his pads, let alone go through them. He was just standing there.
