TrueBlueGED Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Although I still think the team's weaknesses will show against Canada...this team might be the clear 2nd best in the tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodbuster Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 It almost seems unfair to the other teams. Both team Canada and team U.S.A. have very bright futures.The formation of this team is part of what crippled Team USA. Like I said the other day, the next few Olympic tournaments will be fun for us Americans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Hoollllyyyy ###### Rinne just robbed Jack and 3 other unreal chances. This might get out of hand for Finland real quick Don't think Jack got as much on the initial shot as he wanted. Might've had it in that case.

Randall Flagg Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Even Saad - Couturier - Trocheck is a productive NHL second line. This team is so fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Anyone still thinking this North American thing is a gimmick? Yes.

K-9 Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Anyone still thinking this North American thing is a gimmick? Oh, it's definitely a gimmick. No doubt about it. That said, they are every bit as much fun to watch as we all expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabel79 Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Anyone still thinking this North American thing is a gimmick? Yup. And it's the reason (well, the reason besides Torts) that team USA is so bad. So many guys should be there instead of on team make-believe. This entire tournament is garbage. You kids get the hell off my lawn! (Slams door, leans heavily on cane during twenty minute trip back to recliner... Muttering to myself about how Eddie Shore would never have stood for this ).

nfreeman Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Pretty entertaining stuff. NA's level of speed and skill at forward is really impressive. Russia vs. Team NA Monday night (ie tomorrow) at 7:30 pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASabresIUFAN Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 The formation of this team is part of what crippled Team USA. Like I said the other day, the next few Olympic tournaments will be fun for us Americans. Especially when you consider that more then half of this team is USA. Eichel, Johnny Hockey and Saad are better then most of the guys on Team USA. There was a post on Twitter showing what a Team NA would have looked like for the 87 Canada Cup. Scary. Highlights include Yzerman, Lemieux, and LaFontaine in the middle, Robitialle, Neely, Muller, Tocchet amongst others on the wings. Suter, Stevens, Housley and Duchesne on D with Roy, Barasso and Hextall in net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
