HF Habs: 4 Nations Face-Off: Canada beats Sweden 4-3 (OT)

I was really thinking all game that Marner is NOT the player I'd play with Connor McDavid.
With how McDavid brings the puck to the net I'd use him with Sam Bennett and Reinhart.
I'm not sure how much thought was given to keeping Hyman paired with him but I remember when Chris Kunitz was kept to play with Crosby and scored that Monumental goal against Sweden in the gold medal game.
Marner was fine all game with McDavid, but Reinhart was the problem because he was not fast enough. I think bringing Point to McDavid's line is something to try since he also brings some speed. Point also has a good one-timer that McDavid loves to use in his linemates.

The insane Marner hate on this forum is self-evident in this thread. Marner isn't going to be a tier 1 player. He's a good top-line winger, nothing more nor less. Celebrini is likely to become tier 1.

As a Pens fan I would have to agree. You guys have the best atmosphere in hockey and I don't think it's particularly close. Very raucous fans.
Is there a trade to be made? I'm sure Pens fans wouldn't mind seeing Crosby help attempt to bring Cup #25 to Montreal? It would be so epic..

Nah he has zero interest in leaving Pittsburgh. He wants to be a one team guy like his idol Yzerman. And also like Mario.

Unfortunately given the current state of the Pens he might not get to play playoff hockey again before he retires. Hopefully Dubas can turn it around before then. Sid deserves some more playoff hockey.
