GDT: 2019 IIHF World Championships - Slovakia (Bratislava/Kosice) - May 10th to 26th

[Levitate]

He doesn't have anything to show for it (yet), but J.Hughes has played well.

Yeah he's been one of the better US forwards. Lotta big names for USA not showing up so far.

 

[CaptTennille]

If Keller tries to dangle and gets stripped one more time I'm going to rip a clump of my hair out.

 

[Levitate]

amazing how often there's no one in front of the opposing net for the USA

 

[aufheben]

You know what would be REALLY cool? If Brady Skjei turned out to be a good defenseman.

 

[aufheben]

Fox definitely looks like he has the poise to be an NHL defenseman, to me anyway.

 

[Levitate]

You know what would be REALLY cool? If Brady Skjei turned out to be a good defenseman.

Skjei's been alright. THe D hasn't really been the problem it's been the forwards.

 

[effen]

wtf is this PP. garbage.

 

[Edge]

You know what would be REALLY cool? If Brady Skjei turned out to be a good defenseman.

Or if he could be in a position to settle into a second pair role where he belongs.

 

[Thirty One]

Montoya was a little out of left field, but I feel like that was a different era of decisionmakers.

He was 4 on McKenzie's consensus rankings.

 

[Levitate]

as talented as Kane is, sometimes he's a complete disaster

 

[Edge]

It was still not a top-2 pick in a draft without any other candidates even a possibility to be picked.

This is massively different from 6th, 7th or 9th overall where 10 teams have 10 different lists

Second pick. Kakko. This draft.

We can pick any of those reasons for why it's nothing like any situation the Rangers have found themselves in recent history.

 

[aufheben]

Skjei's been alright. THe D hasn't really been the problem it's been the forwards.

I mean for the Rangers.

Or if he could be in a position to settle into a second pair role where he belongs.

I would definitely consider that turning out good.

as talented as Kane is, sometimes he's a complete disaster

Looks kind of goofy with a C on that douche, although his international resume speaks for itself.

 

[Zibanejbread]

Wow

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Schneider blows.

 

[CaptTennille]

Suter and Martinez is a nightmare pairing

 

[Levitate]

just shameful

 

[aufheben]

Surely this country had a better goalie to offer than Cory Schneider?

 

[effen]

US is a weird mix of untalented, slow, and small.

 

[Levitate]

US is a weird mix of untalented, slow, and small.

Nah there's a ton of talent on the team they're just not utilizing any of it

 

[aufheben]

If I didn’t know any better I would assume Adam Fox was an NHL veteran just like the other guys.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

US is a weird mix of untalented, slow, and small.

Still more talented than Slovakia, but they just aren't playing like a team

 

[EdJovanovski]

Adam Fox is a lot more physical than advertised

 

[effen]

Nah there's a ton of talent on the team they're just not utilizing any of it

seems like everyone on the team embodies at least one of those qualities. Maybe not Eichel (?) but he seems like he doesn't give a shit a lot. bad showing no matter how you slice it.

 

[aufheben]

US is a weird mix of untalented, slow, and small.

I was about to respond that they have too much talent for their own good, then Martinez whiffed on a yawning net.
