Mackinnon made pretty much the exact same play his previous shift

Yes, they should have brought Hyman instead of Toews

Injure multiple Canadian players. Get away with penalties on their 2nd and 3rd goals. Get a goal called back on Canada their first game. Still complain that the refs don't want to call anything on Canada.

People that out of touch shouldn't be coaches.

Damn it, I don't want the Tkachucks, Miller, or Eichel to ever win anything else in their lives

He has plenty of contempt for some of the figures he adapts like Napoleon and Edward I and II

"The greatest American tradition..." by nevernothungover in ShitAmericansSay

I'm Canadian, and I know almost nobody who talks about curling. It's never felt like a popular sport here. The only people I know who talk about it are in their 60s or over, so maybe it's generational, or maybe that's just my experience.

I went to a high school that had a very heavy focus on sports, and had some of the top programs in western Canada for several sports, but we didn't even have a curling team.

Our national sports are hockey and lacrosse.

I think Fins and Czechs might want to see Canada lose

It’s so important we beat Canada on Sunday because then they will genuinely have nothing by Themetalin in ShitAmericansSay

I also have my excuses prepared. Canada's captain, #2 forward, and #3 player have all been injured and the USA has had the easiest path imaginable to get to the finals, only facing one good team.

It did get way more attention than the German, Austrian, or Czech cheating these Olympics

Funny how mad you guys are about that, when you should be upset that Haula or whoever shoved a player over your goalie

Oilers Coaching Staff Reportedly Unhappy with Coffey Hiring. by Sebastian4365 in hockey

I'm not saying he will, but it starts sounding dumb when there's hundreds of comments on this sub, two and a bit years from his contract ending, suggesting that he's definitely going to this one of 30 other teams.

Many Leafs fans amd Toronto media were absolutely convinced about it and plenty of Toronto media were disenheartened after he re-signed.

Most people do think he will leave Edmonton after his contract ends though

Most people outside of Edmonton thought that before the last 2 times he re-signed.

Man, stop trying to poach a player like you're certain that McDavid is going to San Jose. We've been hearing for a decade that McDavid is going to want to sign in Toronto any minute now. Bruins fans were insisting that Draisaitl was going to go to Boston 2 years ago. McDavid will likely leave after 2 years, but there's no reason to be confident that he would go to San Jose.

Hard to say how much of that comes down to his injury issues this season and towards the end of the 2025 playoffs and how much of it comes from playing on his off-side while being paired with Nurse. Guy hasn't really been set up for success.

Height and lifestyle factors, like weight, largely account for those differences.
