I suggested earlier it looks to my like Drysdale is playing hurt. He’s shying from all contact.
Could be an upper body injury. He's usually a bit too aggressive pushing guys to walls but tonight I'm not sure if it's because he's gassed from being hemmed in from start to finish or a potential injury like you posed.

f*** man, these boys are not standing on guard for thee. make a comeback please, my dough is on the line. f*** man, can't believe they're letting me down.
 
He also can't skate for shit which is one of the biggest factors in whether someone will be good or great. I can see him carving out a career where he's considered really good but never a top player. I hope I'm wrong because I'd rather see talent succeed to their fullest extent, but he's already bigger than everyone out there and doesn't utilize it. He even said himself that he doesn't play the physical game and models his game after Malkin.
Well we'll have to see regardless how it all plays out. Skating can be improved with NHL level coaches.

His tools are all pointing to be a TOP6 Star C. Just needs some time. I feel Rob Blake and his staff know a thing or two.

Stutzle is definitely a sick talent too but very different player. I'm curious to see how he does on the Sens.

It's weird that Duthie isn't even looking at this guy. He's asking a question and then staring off camera.
 
Canadian top pair getting hemmed in and just cant handle the forecheck. Drysdale stepped up in second period. Byram is just unknown in his own zone.

Never thought USA's defense would be badly outplaying Canada's. USA's defense just much stronger.
 
Yes on your points regarding the US. Also, US can’t start playing to hold onto the lead. Keep pushing and being relentless.

Serious question: how often does it happen that a US/Swedish/Finn/etc. has a kid born or raised in Canada who decides to play for Canada? I ask because I know alot of Canadians who have a US born/raised kid, the kid plays for the US.


Because most of those instances the kids grow up in the states. If you’re raised somewhere you’re going to have more of a connection to that place. If AustonMathews has a son born today and he plays for the leafs the next 10+ years and his kid is raised in Canada he’s probably going to feel like a Canadian.
