How you counter the big 4!

That's the epitome of FREE BIRD

 

[VeteranPresence]

This is what Canada gets for playing politics/favourites with their choices (see: Binnington, Jordan). It also doomed the WJC team. Almost like Hockey Canada itself is poorly run from the top down...

 

[5 14 6 1]

Bad

Crosby
Binnington
MacKinnon
Marner

gg Canada!

 

[sipowicz]

Damn not even a top 3 star for Helle

Did he even work up a sweat?

Winnipeg Jets would beat team Canada, how was Scheifele and his 31 goals left off team Canada?

Hagel, Marchand, Jarvis, Cierelli, Doughty, Paryko seriously……

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

You don't want team Canada's best goalie to make both those saves? Nah, weak

They’re talking about it right now. One soft goal.

 

[Cloned]

Had to groan at all the stars on the Canadian team deferring to each other time after time after time. Even MacKinnon wasn’t shooting.

You’re the best players in the world. Challenge somebody.

 

[Tryamw]

Slavin should have been a star

 

[benfranklin]

If anyone thinks MacKinnon is even close to McDavid after this game then they really don't understand hockey.

 

[bl02]

defensive clinic

 

[BHD]

Only Kelly would side with Binnington

 

[MattMartin]

He was nothing. Canada barely created any scoring chances.

Nah, he played yuge! America's best goaltender. He's making goaltending great again. #Winning

 

[syz]

There was really never a doubt in this one. USA controlled play start to finish. Canada too soft and playing too much on the outside

They got to the inside more than the US did lol.

Would love to have McAvoy on my team in a Stanley Cup game 7. He ate McDavid for dinner tonight. Some beauty hits.

Did you miss the first goal against lol

 

[Hank Plank]

Making opinion based on one game. Well done.

I see what you mean, 7 game series long way to go.

 

[TonsofPuppies]

Making opinion based on one game. Well done.

MacKinnon was bad and has been bad in both games, to be quite honest. Having said that, all McDavid did tonight outside of scoring that one goal was turn the puck over. He also hasn't been great either.

 

[TheLegend27]

Many times I watch Mackinnon he seems to be skating fast for the sake of it-no plan or end goal in mind

 

[SillyRabbit]

There is absolutely no way you can start Jordan Binnington against Finland.

 

[bov]

If you really believe that, I can see why Canada lost and will lose if they play in the finals.

How about you explain yourself. US first goal was a complete softie that any goalie should save and then an unforced error by Crosby causes the 2nd. Evenly match contest. Feel free to debate that.

 

[BoHorvat 53]

Insane that Hellebuyck wasn’t a top 3 star tonight, I thought he deserved 1st star. Easily USA’s MVP so far

Don't forget guys, this guy knows what a snipe is too, he is the full authority on hockey

 

[Grifter3511]

If anyone thinks MacKinnon is even close to McDavid after this game then they really don't understand hockey.

Totally. Because one game says everything there is to say about a player.

 

[IHaveNoCreativity]

Harley is better than most of the defenders on Team Canada either way, so thats not too surprising. Super underrated player

He’s unreal, made some questionable picks look more questionable.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Had to groan at all the stars on the Canadian team deferring to each other time after time after time. Even MacKinnon wasn’t shooting.

You’re the best players in the world. Challenge somebody.

They’re going to have to crash the net. They were kept to the perimeter and that won’t work. Smash your way through. It’s not pretty but you have to go to the net.

f*** Drake.
