Having finally just finished watching Canada-Sweden, I think that first line (Reinhart-McDavid-Marner) is lacking some sandpaper. And some people have mentioned the redundancy of Marner & McDavid on the same line, which might also be true.

I'd like to see what a guy like Crosby or Point could do up with McDavid.
Reinhart-McDavid-Point is the first line that I would like to see

I have a feeling it would be like a hard scrimmage. Competitive, yes. Likely less pointless scrums, no fights and no "taking a guy out" checks.
I doubt there will be anything close to a NHL playoff atmosphere.

Still on the fence to watch or not. If games turn into 11-9 crapola scores then meh...I'll watch Curling instead with my wife.
Boy was I wrong!:laugh:
Excellent hockey.
 
Well, in my armchair coach position:

1. I would have split up Marner and McDavid. We don’t have time to develop chemistry.

2. I would have brought Bennett in but not at the expense of Konecny which cancels it out to some extent. Maybe Cirelli instead.

3. I would have gone with Hill over Binnington.

Prove me wrong Cooper and the boys!

He gives up one bad goal and he's gone nyquil. Or at least that's what i would do.


But Coop is a dual national no?

Give Marner another period or so to see if he displays some chemistry with McDavid, but I’d like to see him and Point flipped.
I would like to see McDavid with Mack and Crosby with Marner, I think the raw speed of Mack and McDavid will be too much and the cerebral play of Crosby and Marner together will be great to watch.

I agree with all three thoughts. Especially if Bennett is going to be playing centre.
