Playing like a glorified all star game

Thus far indeed.

Granted Canada and USA are very far ahead of the other two at this point. The NHL certainly assumes a USA Canads final rather than Finland and Sweden.

It's nice for once to cheer for Mackinnon and Mcdavid instead of getting rekt by them.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Cheering for a team with McDavid on it is kind of fun.

It's a'ight

 

[vildurson]

Team Sweden is just so much slower with puck

 

[Jetcetera]

Just hope no one gets hurt

 

[impaaaaaact]

Canada is not f***ing around my lord

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

if you put crosby on a top team like the avs or oilers etc i still believe he would be a 100 point player instead of being held to 85-95 in pitt

I think so too, honestly think he'd outpoint Rantanen if he was riding shotgun there. Being the primary play driver on an awful pens team at age 37 is too much.

Yikes McDavid skating circles around the Swedish defense.

Which is no joke! That D is amazing.

 

[ViD]

I’m scared for team Finland defense facing this cheat code lineup

 

[Canadienna]

Thus far indeed.

You think this looks like an all star game?

 

[William H Bonney]

International hockey is so much better on the NHL rink

 

[ElysiumAB]

Not an issue for me on Max though, which is using the TNT feed.

Watching through Max. It was only noticeable on the goal call. He called the goal a good half second before it was shot in. Hasn't really been noticeable otherwise.

So, those who thought this would just be all star game hockey with players not caring already proven very wrong. First best on best in a decade? Turns out they care.

 

[Gnome17]

Sweden getting eaten up in the neutral zone

 

[v00d00daddy]

Already the best game of 2025 lol

 

[Felidae]

Nice interception by Bratt, saved a good chance

Playing like a glorified all star game

Looks nothing like an all star game.

 

[Grub]

Better bring the Olympics back.

 

[fahad203]

Did Marner just throw a hit?

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

McDavid came to play... man.

 

[nucks88]

Canada is not f***ing around my lord

Yeah we tend to do that when things matter....

 

[Canadienna]

So, those who thought this would just be all star game hockey with players not caring already proven very wrong. First best on best in a decade? Turns out they care.

Proven very wrong, but some people still ignoring reality and pretending it looks like an all star game.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

And people were saying it would be all star game intensity. I wish all star games were like this.

 

[WPGDEVILS]

what’s Canada line combos?

 

[Schennanigans]

Crosby MacKinnon McDavid would basically be a guarantee cup. Crosby gonna ask to be traded to the Oil after this.
