Canada up 2-0 before I finish my first beer, life is good!

[woodbuck27]

Two goals 2:28 into the first period.

Russia just scored and it's 2-1 now. 10:38 and Canada gets a Power Play.

This game should be a dandy.

Looks like a good game is going on.

Hockey bores me, but that's just me and Norman Chad.

Hahahahaha

This game isn't and won't be boring.

I wonder what percent of the population of Canada is watching this game?

Awesome ...Connor McDavid just scored on a break away.

3-1 Canada !

That goal gives young Connor McDavid a share of the scoring lead in this tournament. This kid is labeled 'the next GREAT ONE'.

We want it badly.

Make that score 4-1 as Max Domi scores.

16-9 the shots for Canada.

He's the Canada fan favourite. The son of Tie Domi:

CANADA goes up 5-1 as Sam Reinhart scores.

That's a point in each of seven games in this tournament for this future NHL prospect.

Russia scores a Power play goal and it's now 5-2 Canada.

Time for Canada to lug this second period out and go to the dressing room up 3.

Whoops !

A I write this Russia scores two goals in 32 seconds and it's now :

5-3 Canada.

In Canadian living rooms people are exclaiming Ohh Noooo !

We've got them ! We've simply to get to the dressing room up two.

Ohh Ohh....Canada gets a penalty and the Russians get their third Power play of this second period.

I see 3 future superstars on the ice for Canada tonight, McDavid, Duclair and Domi. We'll see about Domi though, might not have his head on straight.

[woodbuck27]

Get to your TV's this game is about to go on:

HOT !

[Guiness]

Two quick ones for sure - and now followed by some very sloppy play by the Canadians in their own end and Russia scores 3 unanswered goals.

[woodbuck27]

Holy Dickie:

The score is now 5-4 Canada.

Some Deschensky scored for Russia.

Canada needs to get a grip. Get out of this fricken period.

I thought this game would be exciting Guiness !

Thank God that period is over but it isn't really....as Russia gets a 2 minute Power Play to start the third period.

How exciting is that !!?

5-4 Canada

[Guiness]

Not a penalty shot - but they start the 3rd frame shorthanded, and the Russians scored on their only previous power play.
