I thought he was terrible this tournament
Yeah not sure if it was a case of him trying to do too much wearing the C, but I’m really not a fan of his game. I like the other two guys on his line a lot, Tippett in particular. Think he will be a great nhl’er.

As much as it pains me to say it, Canada got pretty damn unlucky on both those goals...wow
That really was incredible bad luck. Off the guys shinpad to tie it, then Canada has what looked like a sure one timer OT goal and the guys stick breaks and Finland goes down the other end of the ice and ends it. Unreal.

And Jack Hughes... holy shit. I haven’t seen him play before this. What speed and skill. I understand the hype.

I'm in the same boat on Hughes. Think the Bruins can turn Krug+ into some shitty team's first rounder and get a chance at the lottery? (Yes, I am joking.)

4 goal first period for Russia...looking like Russia in the semis and maybe Finland for the gold. Where have we seen that before?

Good final 5 or 6 minutes of the first for the US. Interested to see how that scrum at the end of the period shakes out.

That last minute reminded me of the B’s-Tampa game. Couple of shots but nothing dangerous with about half the time trying to gain the zone.

I was just saying that here. Both these guys are bad, especially when up against the Canadian announcers that call the next game.

After the break they said it was player in the crease. Again, total bullshit. The puck was in the entire time the player was. It was 100% a good goal.
