Glad Suzuki got that one or he'd be wearing the goat horns for missing that wide open net
Ariel Helwani covering hockey???
Game analysis from Elliot. Love the insider stuff stop. Suzuki is out of place on the wing, that’s a coaching problem. Nick is clutch, full stop
Thanks for pulling your head out of McDavid's ass, Elliot.
It's not that he was playing bad. It's just he was put on the wing. Unnatural to him. But he singlehandedly made that tying goal happen. Without him, Canada would already be out.
Nick Suzuki: Good Canadian Kid!
Plus you now have the possible absence of Crosby to contend with… I see Suzuki reprising that center role… being a winger with Mackinnon wasn't really working out… Suzuki wants to slow the game down, while Nathan requires a speed demon (a la Mcdavid).
Yes, unsung hero of the game. One of the best and most iconic moments in Canadian hockey PERIOD
Ariéle
I mean Cooper was not going to put him ahead of Crosby, Mcdavid or Mackinnon at centre and he's a weaker player on the wing but with Crosby out, he can go back to his natural position and he showed why hes so good
thank goodness for Nick
Suzuki, Binnington & Marner producing clutch play under the greatest pressure. Worst game by Canada so far, so hopefully they've got that in the rearview mirror.

Prediction, this changes the rest of the tournament for Nick, this team isn't losing now
Montreal Products Do that all the time..He's their CAP !!
He's a natural center and he was not putting his natural position and he was put with players that do not necessarily compliment him. he was then used as a utility and Swiss army knife up and down the lineup. he kind of felt lost
The toxic Toronto sports media need to STFU moving forward.
Granger
Put Suzuki in the center and THEN we're talking !! 😎
Sure flowers would be nice, and the ref’s and linemen get ? Maybe booed/escorted out of Italy hopefully !
Saint Nick🎉
Thank you hope this respect follows him for the rest of his wonderful career 💪🏿
He is only one playing out of his main position
#10 for the win!
Nick Suzuki… is the only reason we got by, Leafs fan here.
I think we need to stop using the word " flowers" as a term of respect and replace it with the word that means respect which is respect
Oh, Ariel and his endless quest to escape MMA Media space.
Elliotte knows nothing about hockey besides regurgitating popular opinion as his own "insider take"
Beleafers in pain…
No way Ariel is talking hockey. Unexpected but I like it
Ariel is a sell-out. Makes his money in the US and lives in the US. Traitor to both USA 🇺🇸 and Canada 🇨🇦. One down, another one to go!!!
Nick Selke gave Canada the shift it needed to save us
Incredible hustle chasing it to the boards and keeping the play alive, then going to the hard ice for the tip.
Instant career highlight.
