Guest Report post Posted February 21, 2006 Especially considering Nabokov only played the 1st and is rested, and shutout Sweden earlier. Let's say he does fail. Does Canada have the defensemen to keep the puck away from Brodeur or Luongo? Hell no. The Russians can flat out shoot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianGuitarist 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2006 canada can beat russia, don't get me wrong. canada has the tools to make russia suffer for any major mistakes. but judging by every game of the tournmane thus far, russia will murder them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lt. Al Giardello 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2006 I know for a fact if Darryl Sutter was coach of Team Canada, and he was the one who choose the players, Canada would dominate. Pat Quinn, IMO did one of the biggest fuck ups in hockey history, by not picking Staal or Phanuff. Hell I think Crosby would of been a much better pick then Shane Doan, or Kris Draper.

Before two weeks ago, I'd have considered the thought of Crosby > Draper....Not now though, Draper's been fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Annabelle 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2006 draper has been the bets player on the team. if team canada had motr players like him they;d be more successful. hence my idea of putting sullivan & other speedsters on the team to through off the opponant. this is a team game, not an allstar team.

Guest Report post Posted February 22, 2006 I thought Russia was supposed to hate Canada? Hockey wise, anyway. It's all in good fun, I don't feel real disdain.
