He also has the rare Gretzky-like talent of stick handling the puck into the net, when he isn’t beating the goalie with a shot.

What's crazy is I forgot Panthers traded a non protected 2023 1st rounder for 20 games of Ben Chiarot. Imagine losing out a potential generational talent for Chiarot lol.

At first I thought that would never happen, but they have the 9th worst record. The 10 worst teams have a shot at the first overall, so as it stands today it is plausible.

He’s playing for Team Canada.

Once he’s a Blackhawk, Coyote or a Duck they’ll resume McD and Matthews fellatio.

You are correct, you can only move up 10 spots so it would be 11 teams.

More motivation for bottom half teams to tank harder after seeing these WJCs. I just hope he ends up in a good organization that develops him well.

Todays Canada/USA game May was well be the finals. Both Sweden and Czech Republic look amateur today. Sluggish to say the least. They’re going to be run over in the final.

Good job from the Czechs. Great tournament showing for them and Slovakia.

It would be cool to beat the US (because they’re always cocky bastards) then exact revenge on Chechia.

Bedard catches Forsberg with 10 goals and 10 assists in the two games.
