Tkachuck bros are better at marketing the game than NHL itself.

If 86 on the US trips a guy up here in Montreal does the ref say "J'accuse Jack Hughes!"

Nine seconds in and three fights. Amazing!

Having both tkachucks immediately taking themselves out of the game is a bold stratagy

Slapshot vibes.

Mcdavid is the closest thing we have to a superhuman

As an Oilers fan I am all too familiar with having the second best goalie in the game. This has that feel.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Yup. Oilers and this team have a very similar makeup. USA has has a bunch of players who antagonize the oilers as well.

This must be what other teams feel like when playing against Helle. Barely noticeable, big and boring, entirely effective. Look at the quality of the Canadian shots...

This is nuts

Welp, that was a fun game. Can't wait to see v 2.0 after the round robin.

Eta: that Crosby streak dying kinda sucks. That's the stuff of legend.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

That was a fun period. What's the over/under on multiple gordie hats?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Hell yeah, just found this thread pretty late in the game but I love it!

Intense and surprisingly physical game so far. Hope we get a good finish.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

The physical shouldn't surprise. There was zero chance of this game not getting really chippy and bodies flying.

However, I did not have 30 penalty minutes in 9 seconds on my bingo card.

Some of the best hockey I've seen all year.

Why did Binnington start? Starting my whining from now in case.

[–] hypeerror 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The look on McDavid's face after that soft equalizer...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

I don't blame him after scoring that backhand beauty.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

This game lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Man it feels weird as a Leafs fan and a Canadian cheering *against Matthews

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

USA starting this period extremely strong.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Played a strong first period too.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Boys are all going to need ice packs after tonight's tilt. Sheesh! Why did the All-Star games suck so much compared to this?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

When you get playoff hockey energy in February

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

In contrast US is acting asleep at the wheel for the third so far. One goal isn't much of a lead fellas.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

As a Kings fan, I am used to any lead against a McDavid being sus.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

GSP is a GOAT.

[–] greenshirtdenimjeans 2 points 3 days ago

I’m a yank, fight me.

The look on Sid's face said it all.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Absolutely gorgeous shot!

As PIT fan this is making me miss jake so bad. Feel like shit, just want him back.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Watching from Canada, they only seem to have an American broadcast if you don't have Sportsnet! PK Subban shouting out Don Cherry...interesting

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Sailing the high seas has confirmed this. Although, there is a French feed that isn't SN. At least it didn't look like a SN feed.

Binnington coming up big on the PK, let's gooo
