Canada with 3 in :53
Max Domi on the Pens would be good.

Spoiler:

Any chance of a trade with Ariz?...mikey?

Is Kapanen there for the tournament?

Is Kapanen there for the tournament?

I believe so...read an article about anyway.

Canada with 3 in :53
Max Domi on the Pens would be good.

Spoiler:

Any chance of a trade with Ariz?...mikey?

No. A) They just drafted him high B) He's exactly what they need, cheap skill. C) He's a natural center, a bit of hot dog and his game may have some trouble translating...he does not play well with others...kind of clique-y in the locker room...so he has a lot of maturing to do certainly in all facets of his game...super talent though...the London power play was basically just four guys standing around and Domi circling the entire zone until he saw a pass or shot he liked...he loves to have the puck...

[mikey287]

Is Kapanen there for the tournament?

Yeah, he's a first liner for the Finns...and should be one of the standouts of the tournament. I'm guessing he'll play RW with Aleksi Mustonen and also play the point of the PP...

Trying to watch the US - Finland game, and the NHL.com feed is downright terrible

Another feed

Kapanen wearing #24. Kid gets totally energized when he has the puck. Not so much without it. He actually reminds me a lot of Jagr with some of his moves, especially the way he circles around the dot and blisters a wrister...

No doubt Eichel is counting the days until he is a millionaire.

Yeesh.

[sniper]

Yeah Kapanen needs to skate more. Too much floating. Last shift of 2nd period was his best so far.

Shame we don't need a d-man, I thought Carlo looked NHL ready.

Lol watching USA Finland on DVR- Dan Bylsma on color commentary dropped a Get to their Game within the first minute

Ha! Germans have a player named Bender.

[shoeshine boy]

Lol watching USA Finland on DVR- Dan Bylsma on color commentary dropped a Get to their Game within the first minute

last night in the USA/Germany game he and Mearsy started dropping the whole "puck going North" thing.

[columbia]

I'm getting PTSD just listening to Bylsma speak.

[meow]

Finns are tough. Max Domi is the real mccoy.

[shoeshine boy]

Finns are tough. Max Domi is the real mccoy.

indeed he is. much more talented than his father.
Ray Ferraro needs to stop blowing him and the rest of the Canadian team though.
I never thought I'd say this but I hope we get Mearsy and Disco for the USA/CAN game.

[mikey287]

I get what you're saying, but: It's Canada's tournament on Canada's network in Canada with two Canadians calling the action and the Canadians being the odds-on favorites to win and the world as a whole knows more about Team Canada's players than any other country's because they have more exposure (Canadian Major Juniors being more popular and televised than any other development route). I don't blame them for liking Canada and I'll take competent announcing (in fact, that's one of the best duos out there) over a studio host and a low-talker...

[shoeshine boy]

I get what you're saying too but it's too much. he needs to dial it back a bit.

[meow]

Canada's sweaters are hideous.

[meow]

Jesus. Max Domi is insane. So much speed.

[profpolisci]

Jesus. Max Domi is insane. So much speed.

That was a beautiful play.

[meow]

Jesus. Max Domi is insane. So much speed.

That was a beautiful play.

Didn't notice the play Reinhart made to get Domi to rebound. Headsy play

[meow]

The American's F3 is too aggressive. They are giving up a ton of odd mans.
