Jason Robertson and Cole Caufield being left off the American team when goal scoring from their forward group looks to be their biggest weakness, is every bit as baffling to me as Connor Bedard and Mathew Shaefer being left off team Canada when it's obvious we're short an ideal second line...

What an awesome damn day of hockey! 3 tightly contestested games that all went to overtime, with the favourites eventually pulling it out in each. Legitimate nail biters. Hockey is absolutely exploding after the awesome 4 Nation's Cup, followed by the Olympic Championship. Awesome for the sport...

Greasy game for Canada today. All credit to the Czechs, they played their asses off. Dostal was excellent in net for them and Pastrnak, Necas and Palat were great! Losing Crosby to injury sucks. Hopefully it's not ling term. Ugly win, but they got it done. 2 more points for McDavid. Bring on...

Sure as hell beats all the ridculous political nonsense going on in both of our countries right now. Something fun and exciting, rather than insane and nihilistic. And that's coming from someone who has an undergrad in poli-sci, a masters degree in international relations and who specialized in...

Then you go to international competition and the deeply corrupt judges cheat you. The sport has been broken for decades.

In the same vein, there is nothing I would love more than to watch some more American tears as Mackinnon, McDavid, Celebrini or Crosby plunge another dagger into American hearts... I mean, I'd settle for Tom Wilson blasting anyone with "Tkatchuk" on their jersey into the stanchion or taking a...

I don't think there is any doubt that the Americans are going to win on the women's side. They're the best team in the world and have been for several years. They're the heavy favourite and Canada would need an monumental effort to beat them. The men's side is where losing would be a genuine...

Lol...Canada has played the Swiss and Czechs. USA played Denmark, Latvia and Germany, arguably the softest schedule in the entire tournament. The U.S. schedule has been an absolute joke. Of the 12 teams in the tournament USA has played #6, #9 and #10. Canada has played #5, #7 and #11. Neither...

The path is set for a class in finals! Sweden is a "no joke" quarter final matchup for you guys though and the Czechs will play Canada tough too!

Canada vs France finished 10-2. The goal differential is now at +9 for Canada, as USA gets ready to play Germany. The Americans need an enormous performance in order to avoid finishing #2, leading to a quarterfinal game vs Sweden. That bum McDavid got 3 more points today and leads the Olympics...

For those paying attention, Canada and USA are in contention for 1st place overall in the round robin, which matters when it comes to seeding and matchups for the playoff round. Assuming both teams win today and finish 3-0 in the round robin, the tie breaker is goal differential. Canada is...

They have huge off shore reserves that they sell throughout Europe. They produce about 2% of the World's oil on a daily basis, despite proven reserves of only about 7 billion barrels and expected reserves of a further 4-5 billion barrels. They started the sovereign wealth fund back in 1990...

They're being accused of "double touching". There are two rules you must adhere to. 1). You cannot touch any part of the rock, including the handle, when the rock is past the "hog line". The Canadian men are being accused of using their index finger to slightly touch the rock after release...

A lot of it has to do with the number of events that exist in the Olympics in certain sports. Individual and team skiing events dominate the winter Olympics in terms of medals awarded. Those sports, especially cross country variants, are sports that Norway absolutely focuses on, therefore, they...

Nice little finish from Guentzel. 5-3 USA. Recovering nicely after a bad start. This is probably a good thing Guerin's squad. It will serve to help them focus moving forward. You play like they did for the first 30 minutes vs Finland, Canada, Sweden or even Czechia and it's tournament over.

Pesky Denmark giving the U.S. some troubles early. I'm sure the Americans will overcome it throughout the game, but a slow start for sure! If the U.S. doesn't get elite goaltending, probably the biggest strength of their team, they have very little chance to win it all.

The guy is fun to watch. Just had rough night at the worst time. It happens! It's among the world's most corruptly judged sports anyways though so....

Oh me too! Love guys that are goal scorers and face punchers. Some of my all time favorites are players like Cam Neeley, Jerome Iginla, Wendell Clark, Brendan Shanahan and Marcus Foligno.

The overrated one, Connor McDavid with 6 points through his first 2 games, despite John Cooper purposely keeping his minutes down to save him for the playoff round. Not a bad start considering Czechia and Switzerland are legitimately good international teams.

Nothing wrong with the Tkatchuks, they're just good ol' fashion shit heads. We've got the same kind of guys in Marchand, Wilson and Bennett on our team lol. They're just the perfect guys to hate because of their style of play and because of the international rivalry.
