It’s also the crime.
As much as I admire the guys will
To win and ability to raise the level of his play in big games, I’m sure that if @93gilmour93 had this happen to his daughter/wife/sister/mother, where a bunch of adolescent males surrounded her car very late at night at night while she was alone, he wouldn’t be so jovial about it.

This is funny and I thought pretty much same before it happened. However the two games I watched between Canada and USA was the most entertaining hockey I've seen in awhile and definitely am happy they put on this event. I hope they punt the all star game circus and have something like this every year instead. Be nice to have more teams though.

Have I told you I miss Logan Thompson
So just spit balling here, if we had Auston Matthews, on a team coached by Pete Debeor.... would that tear apart the very fabric of the universe?

I don’t think Matthews played poorly yesterday, quite the opposite. He almost ended it in OT but Binnington made a miraculous save from point blank range.
Yes, he loses his coverage on McDavid for the OTGWG by incorrectly pressuring Marner. You would’ve thought he would know Marner’s tendencies to draw coverage and pass to the open guy being his teammate on the Leafs, but he simply lost focus and started puck watching.
The bigger problem is his lack of reaction to losing. He’s the opposite of a guy like MacKinnon who looks like his dog got shot when he loses a big game. I don’t think Matthews has the mentality to win at all costs. He certainly wants to win, but some other guys want it even more than him.
You can’t inspire your teammates if you cannot show the desire to do whatever it takes to win.

I know as a Leaf fan I will come off a bit biased here but through the early part of this tournament I thought both Marner and Matthews looked very pedestrian.
Both players brought it in the final game, Matthews had 2 assists, and created numerous chances in OT, solid defensively. Corrado actually broke down that last play and it was actually Fox with the defensive miscue here
Marner was one of the few players that was able to buy some space for Canada, MacKinnon was the other. It actually kind of reminded me of a much younger Patrick Kane playing for Team USA in those Vancouver Olympics.
I don't think Matthews is the reason they lost, it is unfortunate but he can hold his head high, he played a good game.
That's just my 2 cents.

Was Matthews 12 when he did this?He mooned a security guard in a gated community while with a few buddies and was probably hammered. Nobody died
That’s a Toronto Sports Network review. Matthews cheated on the play. He steals the puck there and he can head up ice for glory. Bad idea. Cost his country.

Electricity is really just organized lightning.
They're to distract you from the Ralph Wiggum nose and the hairline of a 67 year old chain smoker.
Said team would go 0-82 and get swept in all four rounds of the playoffs. However, Matthews would win the Richard, and DeBoer would win the Jack Adams (in spite of the 0-82 record).

The Peter DeBoer line blender would go into overdrive and split him into 3 different players named Auston Matthews, Matthew Austin and Matthias Stan

All the Leafs core players hadn't been any better until last night when Marner won.
If you break down Marner's tournament despite scoring the OT winner in game 1, he was invisible in 3 of the 4 games. The only game he was very noticeable was the final. Maybe he's finally starting to figure it out or maybe it was a fluke. Guess we will see in the playoffs in a few months.

Thought he was the best US fwd not named Brady last night. Is it simply bad luck none of those three go in last night? Somewhere along the line he has to propel his team to a no doubt deciding game win and not rely on a bounce
The math alone on that just doesn’t make sense.

Eichel had 26 points when he led his team to a Stanley cup. Without him there is no cup in Vegas. I'd easily pick any of then over Auston "tummy ache" Matthews for a playoff run even if Matthews is theoretically a better player.

USA is 0-11 for the last 11 Olympics, Sadly Matthews wasn't alive for the first 4 of those losses, but at 1 years old he might have made a difference in Nagano

Other than scoring the winning goal in their first game and assisting on Canada's last 2 goals ie. the tying and medal winning goal he was basically a bum?
Interesting...
Gee I sure hope he doesn't do the exact same thing in the playoffs, that would be horrible!
