that's a nice looking car. 5/5 would drive it again.

The difference between a 2 min boarding and 5 min boarding is just arbitrary in this tournament. There is no consistency.

3 on 3 in OT? fuck right off. What a terrible format.

 

[idrankyourbeer]

canada's 11'th province just got eliminated in the first round lol

 

[Natural Order]

Sit down Minnesota!

Sad to see such a good game close to a BS 3 vs 3 format though

[idrankyourbeer]

I heard this over a dozen times, and I don't believe it.

What is gonna happen? Seriously. He's gonna crack them down with defense? Shadow them? Intimidated them into fear? Beat them up? Forecheck the fowards into the boards over and over?

Brady/Matthew are going to get probably near 20mins, each. Assuming they're not separated. And our solution is throwing Wilson out for 10-15+? Dear god.

I'm ready to eat crow, and watch Wilson get a gold medal goal. But I don't believe this guy is going to do anything but put up 5 mins of ice time against them and provide "energy"

With IIHF rules, you're probably right. I don't know why these teams look for "grit" under the IIHF rules. Those types are a liability in these tournaments. Now, the Four Nations Cup? Okay, he fits right in.

so the florida panthers are hosting a winter classic tomorrow. bring sunscreen.

I don't understand how these dopes think this is a good idea

gotta get rempe on the wilson line to play against the tkachuks. just have the two of them fight the tkachuks and keep them in the box all game and then the americans will have nobody left on the ice capable of doing anything except for maybe quinn hughes.

Wilson is putting up a ppg this year. Dude is a massive presence and can put points up. He’s the right call.

Eh', we'll see. He's not exactly a goon, but if they shit the bed, people are gonna wonder about some names left off the team for a guy like him.
