GDT: 4 Nations Tournament

Why did the glamorize MacKinnon?

A Canadadian definitely made this graphic because the US guys look like shit in comparison.

so Sanheim is either gonna be #7 or stuck with a slug lol

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Sanheim should definitely play over parayko

US taking trochek, kreider, etc over a few other options seems not great but I doubt will make a huge impact. The rest of the roster is disgusting

The thing is that Crosby and McDavid weren’t touched.

Yeah. I knew his numbers slipped recently but didn’t realize how much. I still assume he’ll be a regular though. 6’6 RHD. Lock it in.

Taking pairs is cowardly tho imo. Toews is a good player but he clearly gets the benefit of playing with the best defenseman in a generation. Should he really be a first pair guy at a tournament like this? Theodore should be there but he doesn’t really play with Pietrangelo.

Short window tournaments rely a lot on chemistry, which is why management always seems to include teammates in various pairs, whether on forward or defense. If they had a pre-tournament boot camp it might be a little different, though I suspect it wouldn't be...

This probably means 6/7 deployment for Sanheim, as you are aware.

Parayko is only there because of Armstrong, so he could be the odd man out, as well.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Sanheim might honestly only be there because of Armstrong too.

Really looks like Hart had a free road to become Canada's next undisputed number one. Threw it all away.

Who is this Hart guy? Never heard of him.

Who is this Hart guy? Never heard of him.

Actually low key curious on this.

Let’s say he’s acquitted somehow. Is there any interest in bringing him back into the league?

I don’t think anyone would take the PR risk but is he’s deemed “innocent”?

I keep thinking of this being some sort of Native American competition due to the name
