June 6, 20214 yr comment_506634 That was a decent game. Canada is the 1st team ever, to start 0-3 and win gold.
June 6, 20214 yr comment_506636 Lost to teams playing in rubber boots at the start and then somehow figured it out. Andrew Mangiapane is a good hockey player????

June 10, 20214 yr comment_507031 So both Button and LeBrun roasted Schiefele for his comments on the suspension. Button was "profoundly disappointed" . As much as I like Button, I believe they both are wrong about Schiefele. Ondrej Palat delivered a deliberate elbow to Brett Pesce the other night and all he got was 2 minute minor. That is way more dangerous and a deliberate attempt to injure. Yet "Player Safety" did nothing and LeBrun and Button say nothing about it. If you watch the TSN clip of Button, you can tell he's reading from a script of some sort too.. makes me wonder if he was told to tow the NHL line. Scheifele has every right to be pissed off over the lack of consistency from Parros. I say good on him for calling it out.

That's what I want to hear from a player wearing our colours. 🙂

Yeah, if these survivors were early teens in 1993-95, then I wouldn't know them directly but probably their siblings. But, if there are two survivors, there are more.
September 3, 20213 yr comment_518511 Not sure if mentioned but Nik Ehlers had 6 points in a 6 goal performance by Denmark to qualify for the Olympics. No he didn't score all 6 but still.. 6 points. Another Jet off to the Olympics along with Scheif for Canada, helle and likely Connor for the US. Maybe Wheeler also Edited September 3, 20213 yr by Goalie
