All this tournament shows me is that our top guys aren't as good as we and they think they are
Couldn't agree more. In a tournament where it's best on best, and every player is going full force, Matthews and Marner have arguably been the worst players on their teams. Marner has been hot garbage all tournament and if not for that overtime winner in the 1st game, he'd probably be on the 4th line already. As for Matthews, he just doesn't have that passion. You watch the other players and they're all giving it 100% whereas Matthews looks like he's just out there for a stroll.

Well, at least Marner had his OT moment which is a nice confidence builder, feather in his cap, big game muscle memory, and Sweden is a window dressing club.

The big incomplete grade is Auston. Captain of one of the heavy favorites in this tournament, 9 goals scored and you have 1 assist, completely overshadowed by others? You bring that level of passenger play to the Stanley Cup playoffs, the Leafs are not going to go far. Auston's job isn't to be Phillip Danault.
 
Funny listening to all the deep thoughts of Marner being at the blueline when McDavid was standing at the blueline for the opening goal.

Mindless froth will continue to be sad.

Win or lose in this tournament, one crazy roster decision is having both Sanheim and Konecny on the roster. How does a best on best tournament roster feature two mid level Philadelphia Flyers? It just doesn't look right.
