But then how do you control things? Also, you’re not thinking about the gambling revenues / outcomes. Use your head man! You think people want authentic sport?

That's close to a bannable offense

Reinhart has not been good, but I don't see where else they could play him.

I definitely heard some, but it sounded like a small number of very loud people.

I dunno, he's been fine for me. But one of the main benefits to MacKinnon is that lots of guys can play well with him. You want a combination of physicality, willingness to go to the front of the net and opportunistic shooting talent, and they have a number of guys who fit that bill. I think Bennett would work well, Hagel, Konecny. All good complements to 29.

They have far fewer guys who can effectively play with 97 IMO.

Canada really shouldn’t need Price level goaltending to win - a healthy Makar and I think they handle the Americans.

I lost count of two and three-letter slogans in that commercial.

Delta commuter jet just crashed at Toronto airport. Upside down on runway.

There are survivors apparently. Hoping for the best.

I feel bad for Finland in this one. Finland can definitely hang with the other three in this tournament but missing Heiskanen hurts big time. They're not deep enough that they can get away with their best defenceman being out.

Losing Heiskanen, Ristolainen, and Hakanpaa is tough for a nation that only has 11 defenseman who have played NHL games this season.

Including probably their 1 and 2.

There are videos of passengers crawling out of the aircraft. At least they ones captured in video look impressively able-bodied for having just experienced a plane crash upside down

Toronto has crazy winds with snow squall situations at the moment. Some of the highest snow I’ve seen in the past 20 years. Crazy that a plane landed upside down.

One guy can be seen on video appearing to say most people are ok. This could have been much worse. Serious wind shear?

Somebody made major cuts to everything airline safety related. Not a factor here but it will likely continue.
