I mean, while entertaining, I don’t think 3 on 3 OT is a fair way to decided games like this in a gimmicky way

Mika had a chance in OT he would have buried a couple of years ago. He shot into the goalie’s pads.

CCCP – I agree, but I’m sure the mid-season nature of the tournament has something to do with it. What do you see as an alternative?
wwpd
Olympics is doing three on three overtime as well, with shootouts except for the medal games. So I guess this International Tournament gets a pass.
Basically all these guys play in the nhl, so they should all be used to North American sized ice by now?

OT cost Canada point over a regulation win

The fact that Zibanajad is playing 1C , getting
20 minutes a game and power play time for Sweden gives me hope there is some moron
GM willing to trade for him

no cap in 4 nations. significant cap in nhl especially for underperforming guy with 5 years left.
I think he screwed up the Trouba ordeal, and threatened to trade Kreider. It caused the team to sulk and semi rebel. Just may cost them a playoff berth and his job. Miller was a no brainer, he wanted to come here, cost him a 1st. And possibly could wind up be a top 5 pick to the pens (I hate (pens), next year. I’m not impressed.
And if guys that never won getting paid
Millions sulk and rebel they shouldn’t
Be here anyway

never won. 2 of the last 3 years they made eastern finals

BobbyO
And they never won …and got hammered
By the Panthers last year ..they were never. That

some have no appreciation for how hard it is to get to eastern finals. and without kreider as 1 example they lose to canes last year.

It was hard for Florida too and then they played harder

Presidents trophy and winning first 7 playoff games in a row on way to ECF nothing to sneeze at. Of course a cup is the dream. But I’m pleased I got to root for a top 4 team in the league over the past few years
Washington caps are a good team this year largely the same team as last year and we swept them. Carolina was no easy task either.

There has to be a GM in the league dumber than Drury.
8 points in his last 5 games. He’s starting to turn it around. It’s not like he’s not hustling or doesn’t care.
St.Pete it seems you are wildly optimistic about the intelligence level of NHL GM’s in relation to our Dreary Drury.
rich
Indeed, however I’m sure you could count them on 1 hand.
Drury unloaded Troubas contract and brought in a 1c at a good price ..pretty good for a dummy
The DJ hustling is a stretch ….more floating
Than anything …he needs to be moved
I think he screwed up the Trouba ordeal, and threatened to trade Kreider. It caused the team to sulk and semi rebel. Just may cost them a playoff berth and his job. Miller was a no brainer, he wanted to come here, cost him a 1st. And possibly could wind up be a top 5 pick to the pens (I hate (pens), next year. I’m not impressed.
But I will gladly eat gourmet crow if I’m wrong.
However I do like the Borg and Vaakanainen.
He’s still gonna trade Kreider
