How about that SAUCE from Razor!?!?
What a game
Wonder how much bank Ken Daniels makes off of that foundation
As unpalatable as 3v3 is to decide elimination, if it prevents a dozen NHLers from playing a six period game where all kinds of fatigue-induced injuries can happen, I can deal with it.
The Wings really need to pull the trigger on Faulk, Connor Murphy and/or Logan Stanley if the price is right. Broken record, but we need a little playoff action this year.
Stop, you can't make me think about Quinn Hughes again.
Larkin should have been captain of Team USA hell just seeing how he was being mic'd up was great they even showed a clip of him trying to pump up Matthews lol.
we all know mcdavid is going to san jose to be with celebrini.
I think one glaring thing about Canada losing Crosby that could cost them down the line is faceoffs. With him out and Mac hurt, I think that is now going to be a big time issue if he can’t return. Really struggled on the dot once he went down.
still so bewildering that Larkin doesn’t have the C on for the olympics. I think everyone recognizes at this point that he’s the unspoken captain america

Loved seeing Razor out there – but the 3 shifts before the OT he was so gassed. When he slipped with the puck in his legs it was exhaustion. The bench being shortened was dumb . We have seen him on so many 3 vs 3’s this year and that was not HIM out there. So in a way glad he has some time off – catch a flight home with his pal Mo . Also felt he looked wanting out there – like thank fuck Zabenajad was out there with him…. There was no Cat, Larks or Kane…. Willy looked over weight and lifeless. I texted London mates in Milano -Leaf fans at Canada game that Marner would score – the dump on Leafs destiny signposts were out there for it to happen. Fun times. Now let’s hope we get more fire power and another D for wings. Larkin will be knackered .
I think the US has been playing badly. When you have to count for Brady running around being a bully to inspire says a lot about how this team has been playing.
