Tough row to hoe in the third.

That RBC commercial is unacceptable.

I don't think it's always a mistake to bring a young player like McDavid. If you have the depth it could be good to cultivate a player you know will be a cornerstone for two more years. Unfortunately, an inexplicably, this forward group is very weak and is relying on McDavid way more than it should be.

Pouliot's looked bad all tournament. At least in his role as the offensive kickstarter, he's created very little offense.

Canada needs to push hard in this period. The way things look right now, and the way the Swedes and Russians looked, this is probably the silver medal game, and the loser is likely to finish fourth.

The fake Team Canada jersey Toews wears in that Canadian Tire commercial is nicer than the real Olympic jersey.


I honestly have no idea if the Egg McMuffin having 290 calories is supposed to be a good thing or not. It's a McDonald's ad, so I assume it's good.


So many bad ads.

Chances 10-3 for Finland. Some BS calls, but you're not going to win many games like that

Forgot to mention that Beats commercial.

That is the worst so far.

There's been a bunch of guys who've done next to nothing.. odd to pick him out.

Well that 3rd goal is on McDavid. Weak defense.

Ugh it's so annoying isn't it? Surprised people don't find it kinda racist too. Just another reason to hate Chris Rock these days.

I heard the other day that this is the youngest team Canada has had since 1987...and its showing.

The moment looks to be to big for this group, bit there is a silver lining in that many of these guys will be back next year and nothing beats experience in a short tourney like this beyond your natural talent.

Finland's PP looks fabulous. Canada's looks...bad. The Finnish lead is definately not undeserved.

Finland has been the better team out there... they deserve the lead at this point.
