Bouwmeester looks like he wants the off season to start again.

All of them? Even the kid team is over the cap

Crosby is a beast. He was all over the ice that first period and made several great plays defensively.

He is unreal. Best player since Lemieux.

Sure looks like it now. I'd like some drama, but comparing this roster to others, they really should roll over everyone. Even the replacement players and healthy scratches would be first line/first pair on pretty much every other team except maybe Russia.

Well, maybe not entirely, but pretty close.

Russia's Forwards + Sweden's D + Gaudreau + Kopitar could probably take Canada.

We're truly spoiled with this generation of Canadian players. I want to see them lose only because it's gotten boring seeing them walk through everyone in their path.

But I'm never happy and fun gives me hives.

It's funny how this team is missing Benn, Keith and Seguin. Literally any other country, those injuries would be devastating. Canada is just like "meh".

I don't think any combination of players can beat Canada in a 7-game series. They can steal a game or two but that's it.

With rumors of the North America/Europe 'Ryder Cup'style 7-game series being held between World Cups, I'm tempted to let Europe have the Americans. I genuinely don't think Europe stands a chance without them. It's the World Wars all over again.

Keith - Seabrook
Giordano - Brodie
Letang - <insert whoever you want here>
Subban

not sure that this group is better than what's out there, but it is certainly debatable.
