Really hope USA scores another so that the Seguin/Duchene ends up the game winner not JayBo's goal.

Subban is incredible but Vlasic, Brodie, Keith, and Doughty are better. Subban is in that Giordano/Burns range.

I thought she said division for some reason, where only Keith is really arguable. But no, Vlasic and Brodie, while they don't get the credit they should, are definitely not better... Funny because they're usually underrated, so strange to see them overrated by someone. Also odd you don't think much of Burns, who is every bit as good as Doughty right now.

I've never understood why hockey continues to calculate winning goals incorrectly for a thousand years. The 1-0 goal (Tavares) is the winning goal.

If that was all they had scored, would they have won?

but it is the goal that gave them the lead which was never lost. So that's winning.

No. A game winning goal is the goal that decides the outcome.

But if the other two goals had never been scored it would be tied right now.

I hope they never go to this for deciding game winning goals which I'm assuming they never will. I'm confused just trying to entertain the idea lol

Burns is better than Doughty at being a 2nd pair defenseman.

You and I should compare for the Flames season, see how different it is.

Not sure what you're suggesting - compare actual game winners vs your way?
