I mean... I personally support a round 1 loss this year. If we go 4 years straight of a round 1 loss to the Oils I might just wander off into the woods and become one with nature.

That was a great game.

As a Kings fan, McDavid doing McDavid things depresses me.

As an American, watching your TV ads from SN streams makes me incredibly sad and it feels right y'all getting a proper win in the face of so much cultural/national nonsense.

But for real, anyone but McDavid. Thanks

Yeah it was refreshing. I'm so over the cringe shit that this reality is.

Tkachucks are tough MF's. Dad was too. But they got a long way to go to get this level...

Guy is just too good.

And that's how you beat a good goalie. You Ryan Smyth the shit out of em and set up a tent in front of the crease.

You guys can win if Doughty gets a goal. I'd be OK with that.

I saw some Americans singing it too. r/mademesmile

Crowd spread looks like when Edmonton comes into LA and I have to sit in the middle of Oils fans lol.

Glad to see y'all traveled en mass.

Boston handled themselves like a million times better than I thought they would with that.

Canada looks pissed AF.

This is going to be spicy.

Ugh, only US streams are coming in clear. Sigh. Canadian play by play is so much better on the average. Hopefully I can swap in a bit.

It sounds like the only injury scratch for tomorrow is McAvoy who apparently has a crazy infection in his shoulder. The American forwards should all be starting.

Has anyone heard if Canada is expecting an injury scratch that wasn't previously noted? I feel like they are suiting everyone up who they came into the tourney with.

Hope McAvoy recovers properly. Infections are no joke and it sounds like that joint took a lot of damage.

(This is mostly a community traction post because Lemmy needs more of it.)

US dev seems to be paying off on the top level. We have already seen the more recent juniors results the last handful of years but now it is starting to show beyond that.

I know the majority of this US roster comes from that program and I feel like last night that was visually apparent. It's starting to feel like a proper Canadian / American hockey rivalry has taken shape which should mean the next decade or so of international events should be top notch from that perspective.

On a semi related note; RIP to the Kids' 26 game win streak record wearing the Canadian sweater. Absolutely a legendary stat. His first assist against Sweden was crazy greasy. (Edit)
