I mean no matter what it is going to be quality hockey team Canada's roster is worth like 120 million + lol all that talent..

For sure, it'll be great hockey like I'll still tune in, just won't be emotionally invested at all.

Olympics still takes the cake for best international hockey event, obviously

That's a very good question, I actually haven't heard anything about it. Maybe they won't have one?

I heard what's going to happen is that for the prelim round, they'll not play any national anthems and then for the 1/2/3 they'll hope that team NA U23 and Team Europe are already out of it

or they could play both national anthems of canada and usa for U23.

Yeah, similar to NHL games that have a US and a Canada team playing; don't even see why it's too big of a deal, tbh.

Ducks now leading the Pacific, after being dead last in the league at the beginning and everybody laughing at how they were so out of it after a few seasons of being good. 11 wins in a row, damn. So many teams having hot winstreaks this year lol.

My bolts are killing it too. Hoping for a Tampa/Ducks final. Pipe dream for sure but who cares lol.

The Ducks at the beginning of the year was not accurate, they were not that bad. The Ducks currently is not accurate, they are not that good. Currently I just see them averaging out.

Then what about team Europe? What kind of national anthem would you have for them? There are players from 5 or 6 different countries I believe

Obvious still. The American National anthem (the only anthem that matters).

But really, I have no clue. Would be a bit insane to have like 5-6 national anthems before every game

Yeah that would be odd, I guess we'll figure it out later on once they announce what they are actually going to do.

Boston vs Florida was a hot game last night, Jagr passed Howe in points.

Send Stamkos right this way please, thanks!

Lol but seriously what do you think about his future this summer? Not sure what your cap situation is like.

Also curious to see what your opinions are on Drouin as well

I think they definitely deserve to be where they are ie the top 3 pack in the Pacific that has been moving slowly away from the rest. Obviously positions in this 3 can change because they're so tight but I don't see them falling behind by much.

Slowly? The third place sharks are 18 points apart from fourth place. 18 points!! Hell, they might even secure a playoff position faster than other teams purely because the rest of the pacific division is straight garbage haha.

all of canada just sucks, it's pathetic

The Canadiens without Price suck =L

And to be fair, I don't think Ottawa is as bad as they're playing.

And ngl the Leafs are looking dope. The 4 rookies we brought up from the AHL combined for 7 goals 7 assists the past 6 games, honestly I'm really looking forward to the next few years of Leafs hockey

Admittedly they are pretty shit this season lol. Fucking Grabner is on our 2nd line...

Habs will bounce back I think, the lack of Price exposed their weak D and they made a few moves at the deadline to jig things up again.

I don't get how WPG is so bad. is it their goal tending? lack of depth on F? what is the problem here? on paper they look like a good team

Something is up yeah. I mean they aren't a playoff team in my eyes, but they aren't an under .500 team really. Not too sure, haven't looked into them too much.

Sharks beat the Capitals 5-2 tho, aye? Good start for going down the stretch against some tougher teams.

jesus christ mcdavid is heating up

I know the Calder will most likely go to Ghostisbehere (sp?) or Panarin but I really want it to go to McDavid, just for the underdog story. If he keeps up this level of production he's really making a case for it too.
