Yeah, pretty sure they do. Everything I've read suggests that unless it's a 3 way tie.

McDavid is playing for himself and not the team. Unbelievably selfish player.

In short tournaments like this, it should be win-loss-tie. 3 points for a win, 1 for a loss.

Teams will go balls to the wall for 60 minutes.

It's not that desperate. The problem is that they lose any tie breakers to Russia, so they'd require Finland to beat Russia tomorrow.

If they go to OT and NA wins, do they both advance? I haven't been following the point system.

Him and Mathews have been pathetic with their shift lengths.

And Eichel is useless, he's just another version of Evander Kane. Doesn't know how to use his teammates.

This is my impression of him.

Incredible skater. Excellent hands. But has no sense of his line mates and doesn't seem to have any idea how to use them.

He is actually s fair bit like a centre-playing version of Taylor Hall.

If NA loses, do they go home?

It would require Finland to beat Russia tomorrow. If NA and Russia both finish with a 2-1-0 record, Russia wins the tiebreaker and advances.

It's a weird line.
I'm stoked Gaudreau is having a good tournament. More ammo for him to ask for the big bucks.

I was told hockey IQ was a strong point for him, but I'm not so sure. It seems to be his weakest attribute.

Such a silly statement. His 160 NHL games played are what determine his value. Not a 5 game international tournament.

Which is a degree of but-hurt in and of itself.

We're not worried about having to pay our 4th-round pick budding super-star for the money he deserves.
