Alright now who's bright idea was it to beat canada with grit and not skill?![]()
too much skill, not enough gritWell... the good news is other than the snubs, we can hold our heads up that young guys like Gaudreau, Matthews, Eichel, Jones, Ghost, etc will/SHOULD make future USA teams which will make them a hell of a lot stronger.
As long as their is a different brain trust who prioritizes skill over grit. If not.. guys like Tom Wilson are a lock to make future USA teams.![]()
Also, why is Quick still in nets, just not his game.
Best thing about Erik Johnson taking a penalty is he can't play on the PK
In 1 game anything can happen. In a 7 game series not a chance.Quick hasnt been very good but did anyone actually expect USA to beat Canada? USA lineup sucks compared to Canada.
I hope Bishop and Schneider tell Torts to go **** himself if he asks them to start against the Czechs
What's funny is Schneider had his chance and put up a whopping .883% and a had a 6.00 gaa in his game against Canada and somehow that warranted starting this gameI don't care about yours, per se; however, I don't want any impressionable posters to read it and think it is true: especially when it comes to the Kings.
Yeah, you don't watch as much Kings hockey as I do. That is a fact. I'm not going to pretend to know who the 5th most important player is on the Devils because I don't know. You can tell me all you want about how you stay up and watch every Kings game but nobody is going to believe that.
I'll read what you say about the Devils and give it weight. When it comes to the Kings, you've already proven that you haven't got a clue. Nothing personal.
His rep won't take a hit. If he was the reason they lost tonight, then sure. This team is completely outmatched.
Besides, Quick doesn't have a sterling rep. [mod]
This USA team went from truculence to suckulence in less than 1 week.
That Duchene, ROR, and Thornton line is fantastic.
