Team Europe is going to do about as well as Team Italy does at the Olympics.

[StrykerSteve]

Gaudreau is the best player on the ice tonight. Could have had 4 or 5 points already.

McDavid has still been the best player on the ice. No point in trying to put him down while complimenting Gaudreau. He's the real deal.

Gaudreau > McDavid

If I'm Boston, I'm very worried about Chara. Hopefully it's just him getting his game legs and doesn't care about a pre tournament game. He's looked awful!

[StrykerSteve]

Murray is such a calm goalie.

Sorry but I havent noticed McDavid at all here in the 2nd period. Can you please point out his greatness ? Thanks.

Chara has been mediocre for like 3 years now.

Can we officially call this the World Cup Of Johnny Hockey?

[Bunk]

Johnny's plan all along - don't sign, completely dominate tournament, ask for a little more money (I know the impact of his performance doesn't matter much, but probably can't hurt his cause).

[Enoch Root]

In fairness to Chara, you shouldn't put too much weight on an exhibition game in September when discussing veterans.

[polak]

They need to give Johnny the puck more. I feel like there are too many players that think they're the star on this team. It'll cost them against the better teams.

Really? say who? you?
Let me guess, he's "visually" better?
So you're saying Gaudreau isn't the real deal?

All I see is McDavid skating like a maniac and doing absolutely nothing with the puck.

He hasn't been good in the regular season the last few years either though. And he was brutal in the playoffs last time the Bruins made it.

Or you know he just appreciates that McDavid is really good at hockey and will be a star in the league for years to come.

Yeah that's what I meant...come on he's been great this game especially in the first period. I just don't see the need to put him down when talking about Gaudreau. It is possible they're both playing really well.

[Insufficient Funds]

American feed is loving Johnny. Rightfully so.

Then you missed the first period.
