lol love that Canada has the reigning Norris winner and reigning Art Ross winner as healthy scratches...

You know this nation can churn out talent when...

If they win today, there is no qualification game. hence the point.

True but you argued "fact" playing Russia (if we lost today )instead of Germany in the first round was harder... Which is not the case if they lose today....

A French guy and a black guy. Typical.

lol yeah, not great optics...thank God a native or baby seal didn't win one of those awards, the international community would be all over us

it's like how it's kind of unfortunate optics when Subban plays in the NHL and it's the one black guy getting booed by 20,000 white people

Yeah but as a Habs fan fun it's fun to just blanket all those people as racist

yes it is (Assuming they win Qualifier)

Also, loser of Can-Fin, if in regulation, drops to No. 4 seed and would get No. 5 Russia in QF (counting on Russia winning qualifying game)

It's ON CBC, probably can't get it down there..... they are streaming it.


It's no wonder you can't find it, NBC didn't televise last 2 USA games.

Just about every game has been on here on nbcsn. Don't know why the Canada game is not on.

The played Germany in the qualifier last time and Russia in the qf...... very similar to last time if they lose...

Or is it jut stupidity?

Not as stupid as having Ray Bourque shoot instead of that dude from Brantford.

I'm surprised Subban is out over Hamhuis. Just think that games against the Fins are always super tight and he's a good ace up your sleeve. Not sure what kind of added dimension Hamhuis brings in a game like this. But I don't disagree with him nt being in the top 6. Looks good so far.

Vlasic and Hamhuis have been "meh" at best...as has Bouwmeester. (frank)ing Doughty-Weber is simply frightening.

Ageed. that was the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

Also, Rob Zamuner was on that 98' team. LOL.

Hamuis/Vlasic never made much sense to me. Especially given the big ice-surface.

That's a funny observation..........not racist at the time but sounds like a rap song inspiration.

Vanessa thinks Weber's the ugliest player in the league.

Well...she has to look at you everyday so she obviously has a love of Mike Ricci-esque ugliness.

Started an Olympic tourney on NHL14 the other day... They had the roster from 2010 on it.

I almost puked when I saw Dany Heatley.

Vlasic sure, Hamhuis made the team due to the big ice, its unfortunate that he's only playing 8-9 min a game though as it hard to see his capabilities.

The reason why Hamhuis is in over Subban is simply because he is more reliable in the defensive zone, as Subban's offensive skill is mirrored by the likes of Doughty,Weber etc.

Vlasic thought.............

Any stream?
