Who else has very little interest in the Four Nations tournament?

[Magic 8 Ball]

I'm not really that interested, but it was amazing to see how good Crosby still is with real talent on his team

I will tip my fedora to Crosby, guy is very goodd

I like being proven wrong about the competitiveness of a tournament like this. Still a huge mistake in not at least including Czechia but the passion of playing for your country is there.

I hope Finland defies the odds and wins it all but Uncle Gary wouldn't be best pleased.

Oh, and that Cosby assist was so sexy. Great way to start a tourney.

Watching McDavid --> Crosby --> Mackinnon goal or sick drop pass from Sid to Marner for the OT winner.... anyone still crying about this? Prefer to be watching game 58 of Predators vs Blue Jackets?

I mean, that's coming anyways but this is a great mid-season respite.

That was electric. You're not a hockey fan if you had "very little interest" in that game.

TBH, I didn't have that much interest until I started watching it, Montreal crowd was amazing, Sid's passion, McDavid's speed, thought it was amazing hockey and a lot of fun. Now I can't wait until the Saturday night game Canada vs. U.S. I'll take this anytime over All-Star Game and Skills Competition.

I wouldn’t even know all four teams playing in it without looking it up. It’s cool to see the NHL trying something different but I’d be more interested if it was toward the end of the off season to give us some hockey to look forward to in the summer.

The hockey will almost always be better in February because the players are in mid-season conditioning and mental space. The downside, honestly, is that the tournament has to be a little shorter.

I wasn't not interested, but I didn't really get into it until a few days before the tournament and watching the first 10-15 minutes....the speed and intensity. Give me this anytime in February.

Not sure how people weren't interested in this lol, it's awesome

Luckily, the players didn't view it that way. They were going balls to the wall. But hey, if people want to miss out on great hockey- then more power to them.

Good on the multi-millionaires for trying their best.

The U18 CZE-SUI game I watched instead was entertaining as well. Swiss went up 3-1 and Czechs rallied in the third to tie it, then Poletin won it in OT on a penalty shot. Great hockey with max effort from both teams. Then I watched SJU-Nova and it came down to the wire. Great game.
