Canada will rise to the occasion. It's a matter of national pride.

I hate Dave Cameron as our coach though. He seems to be a career failer
He’s got McKenna playing with plumber Pinelli again, FFS. Stack your best talent with your best talent. It’s the old school Canadian hockey coaching that I can’t fucking stand and Cameron is that.

Does Cameron have Bonk playing forward on the first unit PP?

Wonderful. TSN joins the game in progress and it's already 1-0 Czechia.

And now a 5 minute major. It’s the Dale Hunter mentality that’s plaguing Hockey Canada

Chefs a big fan of Yager. A very smart heads up hockey player. His awareness is top shelf. Wish I could say the same about the rest

Why in the fuck does he have a defenceman playing forward on the first unit PP. Is this Mike Keenan hockey? WTF?

When you pick lesser skilled players over:

Sennecke
Parekh
Yakemchuk
Cristall
Misa
Heidt
Woods
Iginla
Hage
Greentree

And play a Defenceman as a forward on the first unit PP, and your skilled players with plumbers…

This is what you get

Instead we have the TSN panel whining about it like it's somehow unexpected.

The learning curve Chef. We're dense as heck, top to bottom.

It's kinda frustrating.

Here’s a good idea, we won’t hold practices and not even to practice special teams. Instead we will move defenceman Bonk to forward on the first unit PP and leave McKenna on the 2nd unit, lol.
