Playing together is a big deal. Look at the PPs. Plus this tourney is a lot about goaltending.

Crap. 2 failed clears and a pass across that should never make it.

That Goal is why Canada is still the best. Canada’s best players are a lot better than the Americans best players. But the US is close. But nobody in their right mind would take the best 12 American forwards in the NHL over the top 12 Canadian forwards.

Canada needs to keep the sticks down, because that’s the call that will be made at this point.

The assistant coach might have just saved Canada a penalty. He jumped to catch the puck that would have gone over the glass behind the bench.

It's all happening!

I think that went over the imaginary glass across the front of the bench, which I think is how they look at it in the NHL.

I’m not sure it would have gone over the back glass even without the catch.

Every tournament people bend over backwards to show that Canada is no longer the top hockey Nation. Best on best we are the favourite...that doesn't mean they will win every game/tourney.

Relax and enjoy some world class hockey

I'm kinda surprised that's not reviewable.

Sweden scores with 5 seconds left in OT.

Round Robin winning streak is now 49.

Finlands goalie kept them in the game, not satisfied of how Finland plays, all over the place with huge defensive collapses..

Versteeg playing for Canada at the Spengler. Wonder if he’s mastered trash talk in other languages now that he’s playing in Europe.
