Still plenty of time in the period, but man, it feels like it's just not in the cards for Canada this time. This Finish team is solid and they're doing a great job defensively. We're having a tough time generating any decent chances with this Finish defence clogging everything up.

Lots of 1 on 3 rushes.

That’s probably not going to work

Really

Hagel over Bedard?

That’s who we wanted on that rush when down by a goal?

I really do attribute this to linemate decisions. He is looking pass because he knows he's playing with other guys who are in his weight class. If he's playing with Hagel and Horvat he's far more likely to just take the lead, including taking the shot.

It looked like it caught his stick weird and he basically gave the guy an outlet pass.

At this point Cooper has to wear this. The team is way over passing the puck and he needs to be driving home a shooting mentality.

His style may work in a 7 game series, but in a 1 game winner fake all his patience will not work.

We aren't watching Edmonton Calgary we are watching the Olympics.

But sure, have no context to your life outside of NHL hockey, lol.

That’s awfully selective.

Looked pretty solid that shift…

Ikr? Some of these bottom 6 guys only serve to cancel out the guy across from them, but won't be game breakers.

Should have loaded up on as many elite talents as they could manage.

Ripping on McDavid because he's McDavid is dumb. It's like leaf fans who were mad that Marner was the one who scored the winner last game. Just stop.
