September 10, 20168 yr comment_222216 Team Canada Lost 4 2 to Team USA Canada looked good tho but Quick was pretty much on fire. Think Canada has some work to do. Buff looked pretty good for the US. Wheeler did not. I guess one thing to keep in mind here.... this is probably the first time a lot of these guys have skated at this pace cuz it was quick paced for sure in a long time. Wheeler is also a notoriously slow starter to the season. Team NA doing some roster juggling Eichel and Goudreau with McDavid Matthews and can't really recall... maybe Mackinnon with Scheif at center Edited September 10, 20168 yr by Goalie

I watched a bit of the first Finland game, Laine impressed me, just seemed to know where to be to get himself in a position in the offensive zone. Kids gonna be a good finisher I think. The instincts seem to be there.
September 11, 20168 yr comment_222376 Laine has been good so far. His line mates are not tho. Also on the PP he's always open but his mates never really pass it to him and when they do its a poor pass And it's Mathews Scheif Saad for Team NA Edited September 11, 20168 yr by Goalie

September 13, 20168 yr comment_223447 Torts! What the hell are you doing? What's next, Wheeler in net?!?
September 14, 20168 yr comment_223745 The only thing I want to comment on right now is the location of the Canada/Russia game tonight... I absolutely can't wrap my head around why they would play a Canada/Russia game in Pittsburgh... other than it being a neutral site, which also doesn't make any sense b/c the whole tournament is being played in Toronto anyways.... literally any other city in Canada would have been a better choice... guarantee MTS centre would be sold out for this game... Not that his game means much... just seems like a huge money making opportunity missed... any Canadian city would sell 15-20K seats... will Pittsburgh sell 10k for this game?

Let in a fluke but kind of soft but more bad luck goal. That's all he's played. As a former goalie myself.... I always thought that the hardest thing to do was to come in to a game cold in the 3rd. He was ok tho. Not great. Not awful. Ok. Wasn't given the best opportunity tho in my opinion. Starting a game Is a lot easier than coming in cold. Personally if that was me I'd either want to start the game or not play at all.
September 18, 20168 yr comment_224604 Torts is gonna Torts. Buff healthy scratched. USA lose 3 0. That was a game that shows shots on goal can be deceiving. 35 or so to 17 for the USA. But Europe had about 10 scoring chances and the US had maybe 2
September 18, 20168 yr comment_224606 I'm still figuring out how Torts got this gig, he hasn't been a good coach for years and just says anything that come into his head.
September 18, 20168 yr comment_224618 Dunno if anyone noticed but the entire rinkboard in the CDN/CR game is a superimposed ad. Edited September 18, 20168 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
