Pretty sure my blood pressure skyrocketed during that OT

Oh man, I enjoyed that so much. NA all owe Johnny Hockey a drink for that pass.

I want that goal tattooed on my face

probably because he knows he would not be on the team if guys like Kessel and Ryan were

Holy shit, MacKinnon has amazing hands. Keeping the bbs alive!

Does anyone know if there is anything "objectionable" about him I should know before I start stanning him big time?

They're both wingers.

Must be, it's just funny how many people are like "wait Gaudreau isn't just a 23 year old who looks 12, he's actually good????" HE'S AMAZING, RESPECT HIM!!!

AYRT

I could feel my heart rate going up the entire time. Usually I keep it pretty cool during games, but I somehow got super invested in this team.

I heard he did a lot of coke at BC but that's kind of the norm, isn't it? I can't #confirm it first hand, though. Other than that, not that I know of.

It's going to be tough, but Team NA is the most fun team I've seen. I hope they can move on. I hope Finland can get it for them.

Re: Game day thread 21 Sept 2016

For Russia to get it past Team NA, they need a regulation win, right? Or am I miscalculating the point totals?

Re: Game day thread 21 Sept 2016

[(Anonymous)]

Head to head is the first tiebreaker, so they just need to win it

Re: Game day thread 21 Sept 2016

[(Anonymous)]

Team NA is out if Russia wins in any fashion, including OT or SO. They need Finland to win.

Oh shoot, I hadn't realized! That's stress-inducing. I'm going to hope the Finns are feeling spiteful tomorrow.

He's a very big fan of Patrick Kane, fwiw to you. No qualms praising Kane when the allegations were still very much on people's minds. Probably doesn't differentiate him from nearly every other NHLer, though.

problematic favs, johnny gaudreau edition:

- doesn't eat vegetables
- can't even tell the difference between an eggplant and a plum
- once added so much nutella to his diet (to gain weight) that he became constipated
- deceitful: looks twelve, is actually thirteen
- trademarked his nickname
- didn't set his stick on fire during the asg

Re: Game day thread 20 September 2016

He knows that only a team that would leave out a guy like Kessel because of grit would take a guy like Backes over the other center options they could have gone with. He knows where his bread is buttered.

Re: Game day thread 21 Sept 2016

[(Anonymous)]

The announcers have compared him to Kane all the fucking tournament and it drives me crazy for multiple reasons.

Re: Game day thread 21 Sept 2016

[(Anonymous)]

DA but if that was grounds for not liking somebody I would have to stop loving every "undersized" guy who entered the league after him. They all look up to him as a huge role model :/ I can't stand Kane, but I just choose to pretend they're only praising his hockey and not anything else.

sa
Honestly this whole tournament has given me such an appreciation for MacKinnon. As an EC fan I haven't seen him play much/I always assumed CO was a boring team bc of Roy

Re: Game day thread 21 Sept 2016

ayrt

Yeah, that's why I said it doesn't really differentiate him from other players. It's not even just the undersized ones, though they might have cause to like him more/talk about him more often. But for some people, that still is grounds for not liking someone, even if it isn't for you. It's just information.

Not his fault. He was told he wasn't allowed to. Besides, being Voracek's child was better.

Re: Game day thread 21 Sept 2016

DA
MacKinnon's goals+Duchene's goals and nice personality+Landeskog being beautiful (not doing much else, but it's ok)+no more Roy= I might like the Avs now???
