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

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.
 
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.

All Im saying is, I was surprised at how hard they were playing. If you love hockey, then youre missing out. Maybe the intensity dies down as the tourney progresses, but if it continues at this level of play? From one fan of hockey to another- I'd recommend tuning in, especially for Canada vs the US. So much talent on both squads, and if theyre giving 110%, then we won't witness something this intense until the Olympics.
