Re: 2017 Women's World Championships
face it...team canada women had no business even getting to OT. they had either no strategy after the second period or very bad strategy. They should have been done after the third period. they got very lucky that usa did not stick a fork in them in the third. In OT, the game should have been over 5 minutes in. at least kelly pannek did not score there on the PP.
Laura Schuler looked like she was going to puke during the game. She must go. Again, no strategy or simply bad strategy after the second.
the shots were 40-30 USA. 40 shots. team usa got 40 shots on Canada. this is the same number of shots they got against finland, however finland had a million more penalty minutes to kill off. wow. canada regressing to become the new finland?
the team canada women (besides the rookies) don't even look as devastated or distraught anymore compared to the last 2 world championship losses. Losing is the new normal.

Re: 2017 Women's World Championships
Phenomenal game as usual.
Congratulations to Team USA.
Rougeau was looking like a serious liability to her team in OT when the US was applying the pressure...she was standing around just watching...not challenging for the puck when she had the opportunity...just skating almost aimlessly from one face off circle to the other...watching!!!...while she let her team struggle to fend off the pressure!! The US had a man advantage minus a pylon...just terrible...couldn't believe it.
But the ending is probably good for the sport given what happened in the weeks leading up to this tournament.
Great PR.
Tremendous hockey.

Re: 2017 Women's World Championships
an all-european IIHF all star team minus decker (obviously).
hiirikoski is great, better than the likes of larocque or mikkelson for sure, but if hiirikoski were canadian or american, methinks she would not be awarded top defenceman every single tournament. she did not play good in the semis vs. canada this tournament. IMO, her performance there surprised me. the politically correct IIHF/media won't allow this to happen though. There must be at least some Europeans winning something to send a political statement. all in the name of misleading fake "parity". just like not letting group A and group B play each other, because they don't want sensitive folks all up in arms about blowouts. Quelle Horreur!
If the european player is great, but a north american is better, the north american must be 10000X better than the great european to get an award in women's hockey.
also, I'm sorry but mikkelson may have the worst shot in women's hockey.Last edited by Chaffron; 04-07-2017, 10:06 PM.
