Compete Level

I mean Matthews got the primary assist for both US goals and like 3-4 excellent chances to win it. he was their best forward by a mile, Athletic nerd Dom had him as the best player in the game. Kreider was at the bottom of that chart for whatever those stats are worth.

Hughes looked overmatched in every game I watched

Oof, Kreider played 6:25. That's Matt Rempe-esque

Matthews was great but he needed to bury one of the big chances he had early in OT.

Great tourny. I was skeptical like everyone else going in, but I think that's a huge win for the NHL and hockey in general. Bring on the Olympics.

Can't wait to watch the SNES-Habs on Saturday night. Should be a real barnburner after what we watched this last week.

Haha, fuck I forgot that's who they play. Kinda glad my beer league game is 8pm now.

I was too tired to stay up so I went to bed after the second, managed to avoid spoilers and watched the rest in the morning.

From a purely SNES standpoint, really hoping Tkachuk and Sanderson can carry something forward into the playoff push. They were both really good.

And Matinpalo was good, too! The fact that there's a real chance he will be scratched in favour of Hamonic...

Sanderson was so good

It’s going to be rough for Brady and Sanderson to readjust to REAL competition like Caufield and Hutson

Gonna start watching this game again in about an hour

9.3 million viewers on ESPN last night!

great call leaving McDavid alone in the slot like that

It's so fucking sick seeing Gretzky all awkward and shamed on the ice

wish we'd replace the stupid Gretzky statue with a Joe moss statue

I suppose it's encouraging to know we have more Joe Moss tributes than Gretzky tributes around town

The campaign to Moss the Gretzkys starts now and from what you've told me you have enough daily contact with current oilers to try to get them on board

I hope Gretzky feels like absolute shit, I'm sure he doesn't but man imagine if he was all fucked up over this
