TSN is hyping this game up as a "Revenge Game".

Like Rocky Balboa fighting against Clubber Lang (Rocky 3) or Ivan Drago (Rocky 4) kind of big-time revenge.

Connor Bedard has drawn a medal on his stick. TSN didn't say what colour of medal though.

James Duthie always seems to have blood-shot eyes.

I wonder if he is into the sauce before every game.

Honestly, I’d love to see Canada win, but Czechia winning would also be an incredible story.

Czech hockey culture is something I like and have liked for decades. They stress skill but don't shirk physical contact. But yes, some superlative players had long careers. Jaromir Jagr and Martin Straka made me very happy as a long time Rangers fan, but Slegr, Svboda, Lang (top of my head) and I'm no doubt missing so many others.
Nothing to do with the game at hand, I realize. Just a comment on how good their hockey development can be. Their young players are getting better and better again.

This tournament I was already thinking how much of a threat they are, even before it began. It's going to be one of those games where I will be on pins and needles.
Missing Vaclav Nedomansky and Ivan Hlinka

Well... Jokes aside.

Canada is the fav. I said it before the tournament, after our win and before playoffs.

Having said that... I think we can pull this off. These guys weren't born the last time we played for GOLD in 2001. It's a legit once in a lifetime opportunity. These guys would never have to buy a beer again back home.lol.

And to be clear . This is our A team. We are healthy. I love the players... I love the coaches. If we go home with silver I'll still love this team. ZERO complaints coming in.

Tale of the tape

Forwards - Canada
D - Czechs
G - draw

Good luck to Canada.. I'm picking the Czechs as I feel they have a 3 in 10 chance to pull off the upset.
