Larkin should wear a letter
No Hutson NO caufield is CRIMINAL, the two most clutch american this season.
Trocheck is 3rd in faceoff and miller is 7th, they also play 200ft…. they need to face Mack, Crosby, Mcdavid … as a canadian, it makes sense. The hate for vincet is wild….. miller is a 50/50 for me…..maybe more for motivation.
The PK and PP matter just as much as 5v5 and thats why choices were made for both rosters
Marchand definitely should have been suspended.
Since when being born in 1970 make you a boomer? Friedman needs to get his facts straight lol
in sweden many are suprised at Ekholm not being selected. these guys didnt even mention him.
Outdoor game at the peace garden with the red line on the border would be cool.
Jason Robertson should have made it over JT Miller
Sam Bennett should have made it over Tampa players
Simon Edvinsson should have made Sweden
Does everything have to be WOW factor today? Matthews has wow factor but zero cups, tkachuk no wow factor has 2 cups and 3 finals.
Hellebuyck and Matthews were the reasons the US lost and I love it. Big-game losers all the way.
Why is it everyone keeps saying "Binnington" when the real difference in those big games is that when Canada's best players (Crosby, McDavid) get the puck on their stick with the game on the line, they put it away. When the American best guy is in that situation, they flub it. Anyone think that if it was McDavid trying to score on Binnington in the same situation, he wouldn't have scored? Canada and the US, from players 6-25, maybe about even, but players 1-5 there's no comparison. Canada's best players are just way better and that's why they always win and why they'll win again this year.
Backlund should have gone over Holmberg – and what's this braintrust got agains Mark Scheifele?
i would have taken Mark Scheifele over Anthony Cirelli all day long.
Anonymous raccoon from Detro-it 🤣
I don’t believe there’s any merit to that statement about 50% NHLers = nhl refs. Is the IOC just not going to use their officials in any of the semi finals or finals then?
Debrincat deserved a look, he's been money this year for the Wings. Always seems to score when they need it most. Its pretty clear they over thought this roster. IHF is a softer game, dont understand the need for a "heavy game" this isnt 4 nations.
How can you say “I don’t think there are politics against bedard” and also acknowledge multiple lightning players picked because of politics including the coach.
Nobody said the US roster was bad. Fox makes this roster deeper from nearly every metric.
A game on an aircraft carrier in the midst of America's fascist takeover of sovereign countries would be a rough look right now. Just saying.
