Four Nations, Canada takes on the world

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

Thank God the majority of America doesn't give a shit about hockey, otherwise this would be unbearable.

they all love hockey now including Portnoy

Over Sheiffele?

I'd have them both.

Hagel 55 GP, 26 G, 36 A, 62 PTS (1.13 ppg), 9 PPP, 62.4 xGF%, +22 net rating.
Scheifele 56 GP, 31 G, 32 A, 63 PTS (1.13 ppg), 20 PPP, 56.8 xGF%, +16 net rating.

Bottom line, Canada has to change their strategy. Yes, they spent a lot of time in the American defensive zone, but were largely ineffective.

Precisely why I said that the "deserve to win-o-meter" was BS. Hellebuyck was never really tested.

Great. So we'll scratch someone playing at 100% for 50% of Makar.

High-danger chances were 12-5 Canada at 5v5.

The only advantage USA had offensively was that their one PP was better than both of Canada's combined.

And Hyman instead of Marner would have been an improvement also. Someone who goes to the net and can score greasy goals.

Nah - Hyman doesn’t have the pace to play vs US

If Hellebuyck was playing for Canada - we win

US teams G is an enormous advantage

Idiots with eyes. Should stab them out. You'd understand better.

We got goalied. Anyone that can't see that is a fucking moron or worse, Wehave.

Potential good news, Harley was Canada's best D last night.

As mentioned several times here, the team construction was terrible. They'll point to Theodore and Makar going down to hide behind but the goaltenders picked, Cirelli and Hagel?

Sid should have been on the fourth line for his great D and not on a top line where he's struggling to keep up, there's no transition game to speak of, forward support for pressured D was pretty much non-existent.

The game plan was flawed after the puck-moving D went down.

Hagel is 5th in Canadian scoring

Hagel is 5th in Canadian scoring

With a point?

With a point?

In the NHL

Billington made some great saves, however he let in TWO goals that he should of stopped, in games like this we need both, great saves and routine saves.. that was the difference.. having said that we didn't create enough scoring chances.. The USA D is pretty solid.

I want him because he isnt a pussy like Marner. You need a guy who will drive to the net and that ain't Marner. Hyman scored 50 last year riding shotgun with McDavid and he scores from close in. He isnt a perimeter player like Marner.

yet you don't care about this meaningless itrelevant tournament..

Anyone who does should agree that Hyman is a better fit than Marner.

The blind hypocrisy is astounding.
