Canada missing Makar and Theodore's puck moving/transition offense from the back end. Doesn't seem like they can create a lot on the rush and they're not much of a threat in the O-zone on the cycle when the puck goes back to the point.
 
Marchand-McDavid-Crosby
Point-MacKinnon-Reinhart

Marchand-Bergeron-Crosby was a terrific line, reunite Marchand & Crosby.
 
Gut says USA with how we've seen the game played through 40. Canada has a few game breakers when they get fired up though, so it could be a Canada victory if they come out fired up in the 3rd
Kudos on the non answer.lol

I hear you though.. I have no idea. Loving the game and hoping for OT.

Not hard to picture Makar/Crosby/MacK/McD combining for a goal.

US obviously have their all star roster too!
 
In some ways, it's really difficult to build around the Canadian forwards, especially MacKinnon and McDavid as they have such specialist elite skillsets.
Crosby was always easier to build around because he plays a prototypical centre's game. Same with Bergeron, Thornton, etc. of Team Canada rosters past.

Yeah, I'd rather have MacKinnon and McDavid than not, but it must be frustrating for coaches and even other linemates to try to gel with them.

Who’s going into the corners to retrieve loose pucks for that second line?

It’s amazing to me that Provorov and Werenski were for such a long time comparables, now it’s section 8 housing vs a mansion, ridiculous how good Werenski has become even with the injuries what a god damn stud.
