^Not sure the US "Brain Trust" would have actually picked Gaudreau. Their roster is so sub-optimal it's insane. Who was scratched tonight? I heard Palmieri and Byfuglien.

John Tortorella has to be the most over-rated NHL coach in the last 20 years. Guy is awful, and such a failure.

I don't care about his 2004 Cup win. He still sucks ass.

Tampa's 2004 win was all on Richards, St. Louis and Khabibulin.

Sutter was the one with the coaching chops.

Those beards that Burns and Thornton are sporting look just terrible.

The level of play here is must-watch. This ain't Preseason.

I feel like cheering for Frolik, Nakladal and even Cervenka!

Ha, I thought they were just playoff beards (well, Thornton's anyway) and didn't mind them then, but now they look like Ents or something.

Could see that coming as soon as Crosby went behind the net. Nice bank shot.

Through no real fault of Nakladal (-1), Crosby banks a goal off Neuvirth

I think that may be called back. Kinda cheezy, but Stamkos had his stick in there.

I think Nakladal came across slow there... should've closed the gap quicker, but it is Crosby...

I think if he weren't playing his off-side he might have closed the gap, but ultimately the real breakdown was on Sustr IIRC.

Quite impressed with the power rink digital board.

I think it would be an interesting idea to put a salary cap on teams...how many nations will be applied?
