This tournament format is more unforgiving than the gretsky hrlinka u18. I would have preferred play 2 teams and have a semis.

Willy had mixed emotions in this one.
Nylander is currently the highest goal scoring Canadian born player in the NHL this year, while playing for team Sweden.
He took a penalty on CDN first goal, and was directly responsible for poor defensive / give away on another.
The Calgary, Alberta born player played a significant role in Team Canada's win,

William Nylander literally won that game for Canada. It was an outstanding sabotage. MvP

It lacked any meaning. That said I will watch the next Canada game to see if it stirs me anymore
Sanheim in for Shea. Another big body, is he smooth skating too ? Some of these players I dont know much on since I watch way too much Leafs lol.

yeah, I've conflated the 2 games - it was a long time ago. That 1-0 game was the all time great one
I think you are short selling how important it is for these guys to suit up for their country.
The Cup will always be #1 for most, but most of these guys have never had a chance to play for their country at this level.
Same. It's why I always take VIA to MTL when I go now. Quick and easy and no B.S. if booked ahead of time its pretty reasonable too!

He’s okay but if I had to pick one guy I hoped we would never need to insert it would be Sanheim.

I need a vehicle when I'm there and there is typically 4 of us, train isn't feasible.
Heres a link to Monepucks page which visually shows the numbers. Too much work typing it out earlier.

Thanks.
Just read through some of the Team Sweden thread on the main board, many thought he was terrible and a big reason for the losss. I don't know that I'd say terrible but he wasn't very good, we've certainly seen much better from him this season.

I don't think people feel the need to pump him the same way they do Marner.
He led the forwards in ice time and shot attempts, created some chances, made a couple of good defensive plays (including blocking a shot and robbing Marchand of a probable goal), and didn't score on a breakaway in OT. May have been their best forward.
Decent game, nothing great.
One Leaf on each team, so the refs didn't know who to favour?

Nylander was their best a worst player. 2 goals against were on him. I would just pen Nylander for Canadas roster and credit him a couple As that game. I am sure he made all of Sweden facepalm.
Sorry if already posted. I was wondering about this last night after the injury.
That's a good way to do it. These guys are already at risk playing extra games ( I know they make millions) I'm just saying at least every team is protected then and can bring up someone else in an emergency.
For example ... playing the rest of the tournament with 5 d man and risking further injuries etc would be brutal.
I hope every player stays healthy on all teams now. That sucks for him to be out.

I get why people are booing him there... captain of the Leafs... American etc. It's still pretty lame. Matthews and Nylander laughed it off. Good on them.
I also get why some may boo the American anthem... because of all the craziness going on. It's a little lame because it's about their government.
I don't think all American people are idiots either. They're run by one and unfortunately enough of them voted that one idiot in. That's on them. Pretty sad really.
Many of them really need to start looking outside of their own little "globe" and realize there is a whole entire planet of people with differences and it's pretty crazy but guess what... people being different is a good thing. Different cultures, religions etc etc. We should be taking in different perspectives on life and learning from one another.
I'll end my rant there lol

Well, from my POV, booing Matthews and booing the anthem are entirely different, and I don't have a problem with either, TBH. One is sporting and the other isn't.
But I think it's important for the players to know about that distinction, particularly the Americans that play here. 3 of the 7 Canadian teams are captained by Americans, and it's not about them; it's about the policies that Orange idiot has put in place.
Sanheim comes in. They get to notify a player and they can be in Boston but can’t practice or be around the team unless someone else gets hurt. It would probably be wise to have them skating with the team so they don’t get hurt if they have to step in right away.
