Coaches Corner, Don Cherry commenting on how yesterday Team Canada Jrs arrive at rink dressed in suits and ties while U.S. players arrive in sweatshirts and jackets.
January Game Thread
- Thread starter The Napkin
- Start date
No other than comments on how he wished the US team dressed sharper, he commented on how much he liked the Gleason trade for Toronto and what a tough guy Dan Cleary is playing after he had ten teeth knocked out.
Interesting that Bernier has gone through numerous water bottles as the water is freezing after a few minutes.

Must be a Laval, QC thing.
Edit: And moments after I posted this, they mention Theo's toque on air.
"There may be a Kessel involved" with respect to the naming of the women's team. "We'll know for sure if Amanda has been picked..."
We'll also know for sure if Sidney Crosby has been picked for Team Canada soon.

If Crosby isn't picked, Yzerman might have to enter a witness protection plan. And way to go JVR.

That was my point. I don't think there is a bigger lock to make Team USA than Amanda Kessel. It's amusing to hear the announcers speculating if she'll make it. She's a monster.
Loved the JVR note that he has played in 3 winter classics and that is an NHL record.
That doesn't matter a lick, yo.

I guess the only issue for Amanda Kessel is that she has been out with an injury and the question is whether she will be ready in time. But she is the US top scorer so you can't not name her can you?

Everybody says that she'll be healthy for Sochi. She's the best female (American?) hockey player out there. She's obviously going.

Cleary's exact quotes - "It's kind of gross to talk about, but what are you going to do?" and "My concern is the wind on my nerves." Now, if they just would have used rawhide drawstrings with today's jerseys.
That's pretty close. I think the goal will stand.
I'm surprised the NHL doesn't mandate some camera to be at crossbar level so reviews are more reasonable.

They switched ends between the first and second periods but it appears as though to the first half of the 3rd is being played with the teams going the same direction they did in the second.sachmoney said:
Nice play by Reilly Smith's brother setting up Abdelkader for the tying goal.
I could go for a shootout today.
