The defense doesn’t back off like Austria’s in the 4 nations though.

Yeah but cmon, he’s one of the most talented American pure goal scorers.

How does this even count when some of the best players in the world are still playing in the playoffs?

Seems like this comes with an asterisk every year since the best players aren't always available

But he’s not a center. He’s one of their borderline top-6. He should probably be on the Olympic roster, but he’s not a bottom 6, so if they have someone on the wing who has an all-around game they’re gonna take them.

Matthews is his USA lineup nemesis.

The big 5 teams are all in the same situation.  It actually gives the smaller hockey countries an advantage.  Why should it come with an asterisk?

Not a big moment here but a big moment elsewhere. Great thing for Tage
