Crosby retiring a penguin having spent his whole career there is awesome as #### and a rarity. He’s won everything, twice… him riding it out in Pittsburgh is the better story.

These forward lines aren’t generating a lot of chemistry.

3x* and I disagree.

Feels like Jarome in 2012. Just let him go try and win again. He'll be known as a Penguin first and foremost anyways.

This Raymond / Bratt line has been their best probably. At least their most dangerous. Forsberg's line has been more solid but not as threatening.

Wonder if we see 97 / 29 / 87 at some point.

Thompson should really be the starter.

McDavid is probably telling the coaches this is where he usually just stays out there the rest of the game.

Montembeault is better than Binnington…
But yeah Thompson should be starting.

Bratt is pretty underrated probably because he's a late draft pick and there's some high drafted guys on that team that are also really good.

Weird that they healthy scratched Bennett. The 4th line has been completely useless all game.

Watching Binnington makes you realize how good Wolf is. Binnington is still living off the reputation from two months in 2019 . He is just is not very good

Not sure how anyone blames Binnington on that 3rd goal.

No one hates their goalies more than Canadians in the last 15 years

The goalie picks will cost Canada the tourney without a doubt.

Wait until they're matching up against Hellebuyck.

What were they thinking. Oh well, it's a made-up NHL moneygrab.

Thompson not being on the team is kind of hilarious. One of the best goalies on the planet right now.

People are complaining about Marner but if there is anyone who looks out of place out there IMO it's Cirelli. And Doughty of course but I'm taliing about forwards.

Jarvis I haven't seen, seems like he isn't getting much ice time.

Flames and once-Flames forever undervalued.
