Mcdavid >>> Gaudreau

Well they are the future Blobbee and the Americans are leading that team big time.

No they arent. You have been saying this for 15 years. Canada is well on its way to winning 5 of the last 6 best on best men's tournaments with only 2006 as a blemish.

Quit while you're ahead.

Gotta say, Dank looked bad in that game vs the North America (the young stars). First, he had two golden opportunities to end it, but couldn't bury it. Then in that game winner, he was weak in going after a loose puck. A guy beat him to it and fed it to a lonely McKinnon who had all the time in the world to bury it.

That was poor coaching and I saw it coming.
The twins were tired and that's not the position one should be putting them in.
In particular, with 20 year olds, amirite?

I think we've all seen how bad the Sedins can be 3-3. I think we have also seen that Dank isn't really that reliable on breakaways. I think we all know they have lost a step or two and their defensive game has slipped a bit as a result.
The only HW the Canucks need

Oh ya, I was worried when I saw them 3 on 3 as they don't have the wheels anymore to skate with those speedsters. On the other hand, if Danny had buried that breakaway, we wouldn't be talking about it!

And btw....I thought "Dank" was Danny + Hank. ie both of them.

They had already been out long enough when Danny took that pass, but your probably right. :)

Couple of weeks ago I thought I was seeing something weird.
It was a small drone hovering in one place then moved away.
One white light.
Wouldn't have known but I could just barely hear it...

Hmmm. I'm out in the country so some wanker with a drone isnt likely...but not impossible. It tripped me out pretty good and i wasn't that baked

You were probably just looking at just the right time. Maybe an adjustment on a satellite allowing a larger surface to the sun or just an old one rolling from time to time.
Look at the stars enough and eventually you see something you have to think about.

Oh gees, looks like Canada plays Russia in the one and out.
Sweden will get the Euros.
Sweden is looking like they'll be in the best of three, maybe against us.
No injuries please, ya, right..

They saw you.

That's what happens when they focus their brain scan on you and just before they implant the tracking device.

Too late now but:
