May 27 - Voyageurs Cup: Montreal vs Toronto [R]

[Gian-Luca]

Is Gervais injured? He's not listed as one of the subs for Montreal either.

If I've got this correct, each team is only starting 3 Canucks.

[youllneverwalkalone]

I count 4 for Montreal.

This Bold channel must be on free preview here in Vancouver.

[piltdownman]

Free in Vancouver? I pay for it here in Victoria and its shifting between being out and being a heavily pixilized mess ;(

[DarnCherry]

I'm not paying for it (I don't think) and the picture is excellent.

[tmcmurph]

cbc feed is bad, way too much pixelation. I'll watch the replay on TV later.

[coppercanuck]

does the audio sound a little hollow?

[Stuart]

Hey Murph, If you have a digital box you should be able to get it on Channel 96.

Yes, I don't think they have Mic's placed around the crowd, which gives it no atmosphere.

I'm on Telus TV so I don't get 96. Too bad for me. But I work for them so I get an employee discount.

[Winnipeg Fury]

Who are the four Canucks on Montreal ?

Yeah. Nigel's mic' anyway.

Well, JDV's mic' may be working fine but he's coming off pretty stiff despite Reeds efforts to draw him in.

And oh yeah. Guess a new camera crew has to start someplace but I wish it's wasn't during the very 1st official V-Cup match ever.

Best Montreal has looked so far this year.

Braz, Gatti, Leduc and Placentino as starters, Ribeiro as a sub.

[Stuart]

Hey Joey Saputo, if you're reading this, would you ever consider moving to Calgary??

[Kevin McMillan]

I think Bold is on free trial here in Edmonton too... I'm pretty sure I'm not paying for it and it's coming through

I wonder who suckered CBC into highering their nephew to be a camera-man for this one... camera work has been pretty iffy.

[KAS]

Since this thread has an [R] on the title . . .

It is 0-0 at the half. Shots in first half were 9-6 for Montreal, but Toronto's may have been more dangerous. Dichio was subbed off for Smith because of that groin problem he's been having lately.

[nazzer]

Did anyone notice who the teams were when they showed the graphic of what teams would be in pool A of the draw for the Champions League prelim round? I know it was MLS 3,4, MEX 3,4 and Canada but who were the other teams?

[DarnCherry]

The fix is in.

[nolando]

geez..at least the announcers could react to the red - its like their watching a church picnic volleyball tournament or something

[KAS]

It's carding time!

Harmse got a yellow, but Pesoli just got a red on a second yellow, so Montreal is down to 10 now (three in midfield).

[Cheeta]

I'll be stunned if Velez isn't skinned for an Impact goal today. Well, maybe not stunned but surprised. 10 black shirts or no.

[nolando]

cmon jdv..at least MENTION the canada brazil game...for cripes sakes

[KAS]

Impact striker Placentino replaced by defender Surprennant (sp?).

Do you really accept a draw at home in a tournament like this. TFC is too good at home for the Impact to not go for a win in Montreal.

[Cheeta]

So long as Montreal show well I think they can live with a point. Not the 1st choice of course but seeing as how things have played out I think a draw may not be that ugly a date to take to the prom.

Montreal have looked good. They've been competitive, showed some quality, and listen to that, brought out a full house. Considering how their season has gone so far this year this match may be a positive turning point.

[KAS]

GOAL!!! VELEZ!!!
