whats the over under on a binner meltdown. i can't see him handling 2 tkachuks well.

If the US wins I'll sacrifice myself to go to Canada. I'm too cheap to pay to travel myself.

 

[johnnyonthspot]

No. Injuries/sickness

Ahh well he is wrong. USA is the favorite because they are simply better

There will be a 50-100 page discussion of why this and that player was left out and why this and that player played so much/little after team USA wins 6-1.

Who is better will be proven on the ice. Both teams are pretty damn good.

I agree. If USA and Canada were to take on each other in a 7-game series, I bet it's almost dead even 50/50.

And that's the beauty of best-on-best, this could go eitherway because the skill on ice is overwhelming. If i say that this game has the most skill on ice that there has ever been i don't think anyone can say im wrong.

Edit: You don't get to say "this dude" or "that dude" is better from one game, 7game series with USA vs. Canada would be the best thing ever as a hockey fan, but thank god there is also us nordic little countries that can surprise you guys.

They were hitting the Finn's like crazy. They played Canadian style hockey better than Canada can! USA wins by 4

Lol, you are going to be mighty disappointed. I'm absolutely certain if any team wins by 4 its Canada. You new to International hockey? US is most overrated, underachieving hockey country at senior level since 1998.

Can US win? Yeah they can, but it will be by one goal.

By the way I am an American and root for them but they have a terrible track record over 27 years at senior level.

As a fan of Canada, I don't get the decision to play Binnington again. He was not amazing against Sweden. Why not try Hill or Monte and see if they get hot?

I also am not a fan of Marner on McDavids wing. Personally, I would do something like the below so either McDavid, Crosby and McKinnon are almost always out there at center.

Reinheart-McDavid
Marchand-Crosby-Stone
MacKinnon-Marner

 

[catters078]

If he plays, As a Stars fan really excited for Harley. Think he will impress alot of you who only watch Hockey Night in Canada. He's a really solid 2-way defenseman. Might be the most underrated in the NHL.

Wish it wasn't at the expense of Makar. But whatever happens happens.

 

[Coffey]

I hope they both try to kill each other!! I want blooooood!!

They should re-do the summit series, but instead of soviets, it's US. 7 game series between Canada and USA, flip the coin for who starts at home, then 2-2-2-1, i would pay 754 bazillion monies to see it on tv.

Don't give the NHL any ideas.

Just sayin', the Summit Series was 8 games.

Brady Tkatchuk spears Crosby in game 1, he grabs him and they wrestle a bit no harm no foul. Game 2 Matthew slashes Binnington on his glove and he goes berserk, huge 5v5 fight emerges and all 10 players get tossed. Game 3 goes without violence because the teams have been told "we can't have this or we cancel the whole series". Game 4 back at it, and this is what you dont want? Because it's too violent?

 

[smakki]

I hope either one of Tkachuk's hit the soul out of McJesus in the first shift so we get crowd going.

Weird cause the first 3 google searches seem to confirm Canada has more... There is no shot there are 316k in the lower 48. Nearly all US bald eagles reside in Alaska. Not trying to start a debate but there habitat mainly ranges from the PNW up the BC coastal mountain range and into Alaska.

I don't know about official numbers, but I live in CT and there are Eagles 5 minutes from my house. There's definitely a population in the NE
