I can only look back at today's game and understand that Nathan MacKinnon had the game on his stick and couldn't put it away. That was the back breaker or TSN turning point in today's game. That one moment. The Americans played hang on the entire game and it's only fitting that the team hanging on finishes things in 3 on 3 after a turn over on a 3 on 1 rush.

Ah yes, the bold and powerful kleptoparasitic animal that symbolizes America.

Tough loss. Canada controlled the game. They lost discipline in OT. Hellebuyck was a difference maker.

Staples agrees that 3-3 OT in a game like this is terrible, but likes it for NHL regular season games.

DUH of course he does.

That is the director or the FBI. If Canada won do you think the head of the RCMP would be chugging beers in team Canada’s dressing room?

That's not a bad take, I like it for regular season too.
There's no other way unless you want more shootouts or bring back ties.

Ridiculous the NHL would agree to 3-3 OT and the gold medal game at 8am on a Sunday in the eastern time zone.
The players collectively bargained to be in the Olympics which is the crazy part.

Basketball could play horse for the gold medal...it would be even but still stupid. US had nothing going 5 on 5

There is no defending the format.

We live in a society...I figured I could just ask. To me thats just some Rando in a USA jersey celebrating a win.

Even a dick like Patel can celebrate his Country's win at the Olympics.

Ugh the more I watch that goal I wonder how MacKinnon did not get to the puck first, or take out his man. Maybe if he was 100%?

Guy lied to defend pedos...not an opinion it happened. Probably not someone you want at your party. Other countires are now investigating the walls are closing in.

Ya I was going to ask as well but thought it might be him. I don’t know how to do an image search.

I don’t like it for regular season either. It’s gimmicky and no better than the shootout, which I really dislike.

I think a new point system should be considered.

Some people should never be allowed to feel joy at all. If those Dementors from Harry Potter were real, he’s one of many that should be under their spell.
