[The Blue Baron]

Americans not on their toes at all. Nothing crisp, lots of pucks bouncing off their sticks, and a ton of standing around.

So far not a great “warm up” game before the big one.

 

[VivaLasVegas]

Brock doesn’t care about your goalie lol

Faber has completed more sweet passes to Swedish players than any Swedish player.

 

[Mirka the Turka]

If Hischier went down for the year they'd be dead in the water.

We've been playing quite OK without Hischier. He isn't that good offensively to make that big of a difference.

Were a lottery contender without Hughes

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

I like Faber,but he's had a really rough few games so far.

As long as he gets back to the Wild healthy and ready to go, I am ok with that.

 

[Grifter3511]

Led the Golden Knights to a cup.

IMO if you compare a guy like Eichel to Draisaitl I take Eichel any day of the week. Dominates the game defensively (unlike leaky Drai) and contributes so well offensively. Takes over the game. IMO a better Barkov TBH

That is some steep praise. I haven't watched him nearly enough to agree or disagree...but now I want to.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Hey is it Pasta. Is he any good?
Disgraceful no Czech

 

[Killing Joke]

For the Canada game, Hughes should absolutely be on the first unit over Guentzel. Put Matthews in the bumper with his quick release and let Hughes and Eichel play the side walls.

Watch the 2023 playoff run by the Knights or even the highlights. Although highlights may not do the best justice, never seen such a dominant player in a while (besides McDavid - but he's just pure offense).

Even Barkov needed Tkachuk. Who did Eichel have? Some good role players - yes - but no stars.

 

[SmoggyTwinkles]

We need 4 goal Auston Matthews right now, 3 goals ain't good enough

Didnt he have this big 6'5 guy on team canada?

It is Olzempic treatment day.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Is Petterson playing? Honestly haven't notice him at all.

He's not getting much ice time because he's buried behind Sweden's insane center depth.

̶Z̶i̶b̶a̶n̶e̶j̶a̶d̶ - not playing
Carlsson
Eriksson Ek
Lindholm
Nyquist

Hard to blame him when he's stuck behind guys like that.

If Vegas didn't have Eichel this season they might be outside the playoff picture right now.

IMO winning this competition could propel the US soccer team to win the world cup. Its just that belief of being the greatest nation that could extend into sports.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Boldy with the extra large "f***" there after the fanned shot lol.

 

[Killing Joke]

Brock Faber is such a moron and there is an example of his dog shit breakouts. He has a wide open hughes who's a better puck carrier than Guentzel, and faster, and he tries to go for a pass to Guentzel whos covered.
Only reason Faber is on this team is because of his GM and coach.

 

[ORRFForever]

Does he have 3 goals in this tournament?

What?

 

[thewave]

why is Poilevre speaking so softly in this commercial?

Maybe he like you big boy

 

[Mirka the Turka]

Dang this no name Swedish goalie is playing well

 

[jj cale]

It will be a different U.S team on thursday but you still like to get the win for the crowd and run the table if you can.

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

Dang this no name Swedish goalie is playing well

Even the Flyers aren't sure who he is...

 

[TimeZone]

Canada has lost, won in OT and needed an ENG. and NOBODY makes more excuses than Canadian fans.

Trying to spin a negative off a team who covers the puck line is pretty wild.

They had a hiccup against Finland, but dominated 90% of the game and looked a hell of a lot better than the US does tonight, or even did in the majority of the game against Finland for that matter.

 

[Mirka the Turka]

Even the Flyers aren't sure who he is...

Where's Carter Hart?

Hey, we have to deal with Cirelli (for the same reasons), so it's only fair.
