At the very least, he could tag some of their moms.
Maybe that's why he's not captain.

Seguin might be out for the tournament:
Nick Kypreos @RealKyper
Hearing @HC_Men Seguin sustained an injury during pre season that could knock him out rest of tourn. #WCH2016
Canada should be naming a replacement soon, if true

Semi watching this USA-Finland game.
USA dominating andcRinne had has to bail out his D a few times. Jokkipakka was on for the first US goal.

Seguin needs at least 7-10 days off skates, according to Sportsnet's @RealKyper

Kypreos thinks it should be Wayne Simmonds.

I would sooner go with someone like Carter or Huberdeau. Hell, I like Wayne Simmonds more for this team than Toffoli. At least he would bring a bulldog net front presence.
Edit: Vulcan beat me to it.

Laine is one hell of a player. I like him better than Mathews and think he will be a better player.
The Other Finn will be a bust.

Duh. Why do I always forget about him? Oh right...Buffalo.
That and I want to deeply forget the whole offer sheet fiasco.

Yeah, that last Sweded/Finland game very aptly demonstrated the difference between European v. NA ice, and it illustrated why they are going to struggle against relentlessly forechecking teams like Canada and US in a tighter space.
God, I hate Sweden.

Why do you hate Sweden? I like most everything about it.
IKEA, SAAB, Volvo... all great companies. Plus, you know, beautiful country.

You don't hear much about O'Reilly these days it seems... how'd his whole drinky drinky drive into a Tim Horton's thing work out anyway?
edit- huh, looks like he was found not guilty.
