World Cup: 4 Nations Tournament- Team USA (2025)

[KillerMillerTime]

Let him play. We wanted best on best, right? This isn't the IIHF. The NHL can just change the rules on the fly. It's only right that Makar and Hughes battle it out.

Brett Pesce?

I mean, just off the top of my head I'd rather have brought in John Carlson, Mikey Anderson, Brandon Carlo, etc.


Dustin Brown, Ryan Callahan, Ryan Kesler, David Backes.

The 2010 American teams had some really gritty, hard hitting power forwards.

Brandon Carlo? He has been terrible this year. Take Pionk over him in a heartbeat.

 

[KillerMillerTime]

Captain Mike with a great pep talk to the boys the other night.

It won't exceed Saturday night, my guess is 3.5-4M.

 

[William H Bonney]

Add Kyle Connor to that talented group that hasn't produced. I'll give Matthews a bit of a pass, since his defensive play has been stellar.

Binnington is their Achilles heel. Light him up.

Yeah, agreed, Connor has just ended up with a diminished role whereas the other guys are still getting prime deployments.

Let him play he won’t play against the top two lines anyway

Is he better than Girard or Byram yet tho??

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Bettman lied then cause today he said the Bruins were fine after he spoke with Neely. Also the medical staff for the US team are from the Wild. Boston were already upset with that medical staff because of the Pat Maroon evaluation a couple of years ago.

So basically Mcavoy separated his shoulder vs Finland, then got a Toradol shot to get him through the Canada game. Which then became infected? If I were a Boston fan I'd be livid, especially with his history of shoulder injuries.

Jury’s still out

No reason to trust Bettman or what any teams say

 

[thefutures]

Who?

Quinn

Jury’s still out

Of course it is, Byram is better than Seider too. Pure studs

 

[kingsfan28]

Callahan making a push now....where the hell is Ryan Lasch?????

Zach Parise is coming out of retirement and heading for Boston too.

 

[GMR]

If Quinn Hughes can't go, both Justin Holl and Jeff Petry are Americans who can take his place.

 

[AmericanDream]

Couldn't sleep....this is it. We need to slay the dragon at the pro level which hasn't happened since 96. Hoping the Tkachuks scream "O mama don't you cry" after the game tonight!

 

[AmericanDream]

Pure

 

[AmericanDream]

As expected...

 

[SanDogBrewin]

I want to see big games from Matthews and Hughes tonight. That line needs to be on fiyah!

 

[William H Bonney]

As expected...

Not rotund enough to be Big Walt sneaking out there

 

[William H Bonney]

If Quinn Hughes can't go, both Justin Holl and Jeff Petry are Americans who can take his place.

It'll be a more exciting game if the Canadians have a chance. That would just be unfair.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Always tough to beat the same team twice in a tournament. Three keys to victory:

* Strong physical/defensive play
* Hellebucyk holds down the fort
* The likes of Matthews, Hughes, and Connor steps up

 

[Neil Racki]

getting stronger! GETTING STRONGER!

Were coming for ya, you little pumpkin pie hair cutted freaks!

When he started off with the beginning of Herb Brooks speech I swear I was about to hip check my 2 year old Daughter and then drop the gloves with my 4 year old daughter right in the living room. Fired me all the way up!!!!!

Matthews in his career has yet to show he is a big game player. Some players get you to the show, some get you through the show.
