yzerman19 Posted Sunday at 02:16 AM Posted Sunday at 02:16 AM Embarrassing...but it was the US JV squad, so that's positive. Quote
yzerman19 Posted Sunday at 02:20 AM Posted Sunday at 02:20 AM The Canadian announcers fluffing their feathers...they know the U.S. doesn't send the top dogs...I guess they are just trying to make Canada hopeful after all their recent disappointments. the reality is COVID restrictions destroyed Canadian hockey. Ontario is a full year behind, that's why western canada is leading the charge. The kid who went #2 in the OHL draft was cut from NTDP....just think about that...he was at the 40 man and didn't make it. Quote
yzerman19 Posted Sunday at 02:21 AM Posted Sunday at 02:21 AM Schultz and Pue are great and stack up great with the best US 2010's so no knock on them Quote
yzerman19 Posted Sunday at 02:23 AM Posted Sunday at 02:23 AM Add this too. The kid they tried get exceptional status for in this years OHL draft (Kade O'Rourke) spent the Covid years in Texas and is a US citizen Quote

yzerman19 Posted Sunday at 12:14 PM Posted Sunday at 12:14 PM I was frustrated last night and had a couple pops, but the reality is they sent their best and we didn't send Meyer or Fitzy or Nelson or Willis or Sears or Guitierrez. The score reflects that. Quote

The score reflects that. 100%. But Canada dominated them last night worse than they dominated Germany. I was frustrated with the showing as well as the score should have been much closer. The shot/possession disparity was embarrassing. Quote
thUNDer Posted Sunday at 05:46 PM Posted Sunday at 05:46 PM What was that, not a gold medal game regardless! We switched to banana ball 😊 Quote
Wilbur Posted Sunday at 05:48 PM Posted Sunday at 05:48 PM Pre tournament you could kind of write the outcome with who Canada had and who didn't head north for USA. I didn't have 8-1 on my bingo card, but I had the boys keeping it to a respectable outcome. Quote
yzerman19 Posted 21 hours ago Posted 21 hours ago I am a hockey nerd and re-watched that game. My takeaways were that our D and C play were pretty bad. Not every shift, but as a whole. Too many centers not playing on the right side of the puck. too many D that just couldn't get pucks up and out and on the tape. Our wingers were good when they were engaged. You need centers who create advantage with or without the puck across all 200 feet and you need D that can move it up Quote
