"I was just in the dressing room and saw the Canadian D and it's huge!"TSN is already hyping the size of Canada's defence. Have to wonder what Pierre McGuire would have to say on the matter.

Probably flashbacks to walking into the room and seeing Phaneuf, Weber, and Belle. A MAN's body!"I was just in the dressing room and saw the Canadian D and it's huge!"![]()

In practice it was supposed to be the bumper but they were unable to get the puck to him and he ended collapsing to the net whenever shots came in from the point.They were using him in the bumper position, not as the net screen guy. We just didn’t know how to properly utilize a bumper position.

Yeah the depth guys are pretty huge for this level, whammo, but TSN is focusing on the size of the defence for now. TSN's focus on the offence is mainly Bedard, Wright, and Fantilli so far. Stankoven was highlighted too.The whole team is huge.
People have been complaining about their hype for years, but we've recently seen the opposite of hype... little to no coverage at all during the last few months. I am beyond thrilled to see TSN doing some WJC hype again!Tsn is trash , they seem to hype a story to get viewers or to create a sensation. I guess that’s what it takes now a days to get ratings.
I am referring to the size of the defence hype by tsn
We're ready for some hockey, man!Just chiming in to say that in the period between the day when the team is announced and the tournament actually starts, this thread gets a little weird. Like, 10:30 pm downtown bus weird. Y'all all right?
Just making sure you guys didn't all need a hug, or a beer, or something. I mean, I got none of those things, but I know a guy who knows a guy...We're ready for some hockey, man!![]()
lol now that's funnyAs a US fan I'm perfectly okay with Canada using one of the best perimeter shooters in tournament history to screen the goalie.
Craig button is trash. I don’t think he has gotten out of his basement since covidunpopular opinion but would love to see Pierre added to the other groups crew.
Much better than Button.
Only reason they haven’t hyped as much as you think the last couple of years is because there was nothing to hype !!! They are now full mode hype again.

Ummm... is that REALLY why you think TSN hasn't been promoting the tournament the past several months? I'm guessing you haven't been reading the news much.Craig button is trash. I don’t think he has gotten out of his basement since covid

I'd be happy to see it. Getting a few laughs in at Pierre makes the tournament more fun.unpopular opinion but would love to see Pierre added to the other groups crew.

Did you go crying to the moderatorsHey, you're the one that seems to have a different answer for it than what everyone else knows.![]()
No. Were you just handed a penalty? Time to work on the PK?Did you go crying to the moderators![]()
Moderators are way to sensitive hereNo. Were you just handed a penalty? Time to work on the PK?
I hope our defence aren’t big and soft. I was watching the scrimmage by our 5.9 Stankoven against some 6.4 foot defensman and our 6.4 looked soft. Hope this was due to it being a scrimmage but he looked soft asfThe importance of size on the back-end is always a debate, so it will be interesting to see how the U.S fares against Canada this year. The Americans are rolling with a very small defensive group this WJC.
