[Bradely]

Marner nearly shut his pants there when he saw it was Brady that pushed him

colorblind... that was Hughes

 

[WarriorofTime]

This is a good game.

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

MacKinnon had had another gear all game....McDavid is still MIA

you gotta be kidding.MacKinnon Looking people off and awful cross ice passes. Mcdavid mostly missing

 

[Matty Sundin]

USA looked tired out there end of 2nd
Canada still has that “we just met in the parking lot” vibe of chemistry still

 

[BB79]

He's BETTER than Marchand.

Sam doesn't need to lick someone's face to gain an edge!

Yeah, he just cheapshots them in the face...but the guy he did that to is Marchand and on his team now ironically

 

[wonton15]

Can’t imagine how fun it’d be to see Quinn Hughes in the Olympics dance out there with this USA team

You forgot HFCanucks. But we are not really part of Canada anyways.

 

[dwdl21]

Going to be an interesting 3rd...Lol

 

[sfvega]

Regardless of how this ends, it's been big for hockey to capitalize on a dead spot in the sports calendar.

 

[IceManCat]

Even game, great hockey, what a 4 Nations. Let’s hope for overtime

 

[Gee Wally]

Yes

If there's an OT it goes by playoff OT rules right?

. 5 on 5 until a winner.

I hope its Marchand.
Neither Boston nor Canada will know how to react.

 

[navyduck]

Love how Canada can have 5 players in the neutral zone while one player is in the offensive zone is skating back to the center ice bench door to change.........nothing wrong with that

 

[5 14 6 1]

Great game of hockey being played tonight

 

[Zirakzigil]

Mack needs to chill on the across ice pass's. 0-2 or 3 tonight..

First he was too selfish, now hes too selfless? Cant be both! Mack has been good. But hes been looking to much for Makar on the point.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Last few minutes both teams a little stiff. Tired, injuries/illness, tie game stress… (not to suggest it isn’t a compelling game and great hockey)

Third period gonna be interesting.

Strong hockey play

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Remember when Adam Fox was the next great defenseman, who would only stop winning Norris' because the voters got sick of giving it to him

Adam Fox on Steroids

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Marner and Matthews both showing up to play in a do or die game in Boston kind of feels like being in the twilight zone tbh

 

[Quinton Byfield]

Regardless of result, Canada needs to make a directional change next year. More speed and skill, less "gud ol' boys" and reputation picks. Marchand looks done. Stone looks incredibly slow. Allowing personal vendetta and ego to get in the way of picking the best goaltenders available. Unbelievable.

 

[Quinning]

Can’t imagine how fun it’d be to see Quinn Hughes in the Olympics dance out there with this USA team

As a Canucks fan, I'm supremely glad he's not playing. His brother has been trucked on every shift.

 

[dirtydanglez]

feels like canada has the momentum but binnington

 

[centipede2233]

this game really reaffirms that it’s a young man’s game. Doughty, Marchand, stone and Crosby are liabilities against this American team. Crosby is elite except for speed, his time and space just isn’t there at 37 against the speed of USA

 

[logan5]

Makar's skating is unreal.

Great skater, but he only has one gear. Needs to change speeds and direction more often.

 

[Panthers Propaganda]

So, the only thing that stands in the way of elite goaltending is instant gratification.

Yes, but I'm mostly joking. The actual reason idk.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Canada has had leads in every single game of this tournament.

And they've given up that lead in every single game of this tournament.

Just Binnington things.
