So he'll be 29... Makes 4.5 right now... If he repeats what he did last year, it'll be a big 6-7 year deal with a good raise.

Wow what a goal by Tavares...

You're right, it was Setoguchi, Coyle and a first for Burns. Still awful.

Complete domination by Canada in this period. Russia looks shell-shocked.

They're not choking.

This is literally the class difference between Canada and everybody else.

It's kind of sad really. We haven't had a worthy opponent since the Gold Medal Game in 2010. I don't think Sweden stands much of a chance in the Final either.

Yeah, I can't really believe there was talk of the u23s being in this class - this Canadian team is ridiculously disciplined.

Canada is obviously a much better team, but there's no reason Ovechkin should have zero shots.

6 X 6 would be fine for him.

U23s might have been able to take on a Canada team without Sidney Crosby, Carey Price, and Patrice Bergeron

(Three of the ~five best players in the world.)

You need to have the puck to have shots.

The world's best defence shutting him down is a pretty legitimate reason IMO.

I'm a little disappointed the finals are 3 games, I can see Sweden squeaking out a win but not 2 of 3.maybe a 5% chance of that happening?
