Pre-tournament, but excellent puck movement and scoring power for Canada. Swiss may be playing a little possum, we'll see once the actual tournament starts. Go Canada.

I thought Switzerland would play them a lot closer…

Although nice win for Canada

Switzerland playing possum pre-tournament. Will we fall for it again?

That sound at the beginning and segways is f*cking annoying! I really wish you'd get rid of it or put something else in its place.

My lord that Swiss goalie does everything I hate about modern goalies he is on his knees steady and letting in the most stupid goals that is he just stood there the puck would literally hit him but nope he has to go down giving the shot more opportunity to go in.
Good to see Canada shooting a lot I wonder if they keep that up when shots are not easily going in like they are on this swiss cheese goalie.

What I have seen in the past is Canada plays too hard in these prelims.The coach should be playing the guys who will get the least amount of ice time and not burning his best players out in a game that means nothing.ALL of these players are already in shape and ready to go it's not like they are coming off the summer rusty however I expect more dumb coaching just like I see in the NHL.
