Totally. The bruins should go back in time and not let him stay with the big club because he’s been meh in two games at the world juniors.

Same…..it ruins all the other types of brews for me…. Everything else tastes so boring and bland…..
You sound sane...
I used to play a lot... including with some teams globally as an invite player/spare...
I stopped playing because it's mind numbing at the analytic level...
I get it when I talk with the Vets still alive that served in actual combat at how lucky those that lived are... the odds of living versus dying where air thin for all...
And I admit to playing a PZ.KPFW. 35 (T) when I first started playing...
And loved being a Scout...
A glutton for punishment... like Latvia today...

50 year old Sandis Ozolinsh and Arturs Irbe wouldn't be able to save their Bacon
That is what I call Sportsmenship
Does Poitras understand there are other guys out there on his team?

His game is to slow it down and find a late guy (Krejci's game). World Juniors has always been about one guy skating at breakneck speed entering the zone. Ideally, he needs to be quicker but that is just not him. He may well play a role in the playoff rounds as he is very good at stripping pucks and playing positional which most young guys do not do. That is the reason he earned the trust of his NHL coach. I mean he has set up a lot of guys, they just have not converted. This game showcases the scorers and skaters, Latvia is not going to challenge them. (I see they are one of Canada's goals). I thought Poitras looked to get an assist on the 6th goal (Minten) as he stripped the puck along the boards and gave it to the eventual scorer but it was another one goal they were talking about.

I haven't played in a couple years - quit cold turkey. Sadly, had a couple friends get into it and they will periodically send me passive aggressive texts asking me to platoon.
Nelson upset for letting his man get inside position?
Those guys are just more obstacles to skate around

Team Canada should send a team from Nunavut, NWT, and Yukon to play Team Latvia then it might be a sawoff
The tournament tie breaker is goals for, then goals against, then goal differential.
Gotta keep scoring in case we get a tie in wins at the top of the division
Maybe you can join the organizational body and make the changes happen. Be the change.

Glad they did what they were suppose to do vs a peewee team.
I haven't seen him set anyone up on late trailer players. I've seen Savoie and Cowan get him the puck off the forecheck and him skate to himself into the wall or double coverage without finding anyone. It reminds me of Lysell last year. He looks nothing like how he did in the Bruins' games I've watched and it may be that he's trying to do too much/pressing.
