Ghostbear, Rielly, Jones, Murray, Parayko, Ekblad, Trouba

Vs

Buff, Carlson, Johnson, Johnson, McDonagh, Niskanen, Suter




I'd probably take the young guns over team USA tbh...

I'd take the USA defence in a tournament setting. Lots of high end potential on the U-24 team though. I'm starting to get curious about the Trouba situation.

offensively 100%

keep in mind what kind of forwards these kids will face... not your typical nhl lineups thats for certain

the US should pair johnson and johnson together and call them the baby oil pairing.

i am aware that joke is not funny... i just had to purge it from my system

Guys, you need to stop.

Otherwise Garf will be spending all his time in this thread cranking out knuckle children instead of giving us quality blogs that are locked 5 minutes after they're posted!

Time to pull Richardey?


He seems to be firing all over the place...

Yes. I've met him and he's a very nice person, but I'm so happy that he won't be on the playoff roster.

Is anybody heading down to a game this World Cup?

Dumb running by Jose

yeah i get that... but if he wasnt on the ice here he would be on the ice somewhere else facing the same risks... i think it will be good for him... and i bet he will be fired up and motivated t show what he can do

The omni-present voice of reason....you make a good point. Very true.

Imagine we went through last season and had to pick 4 like we were all expecting. Puljujarvi is an intriguing prospect and could be a great player, but Matthews represents a change in our team's fortunes.

I would've been happy still. Way less happy than I am now but still happy.

this will haunt my dreams

Second one is better....sleep tight!?!

What episode is that from? I don't even remember seeing that before though it's not really something you'd notice unless you thought about it for a moment.

He needs to prove he can be a starter. Will be tough with a subpar defence.

I'm really interested to see this kid take off this season with the Leafs.

I feel like Babcock had him focus on the D side of the game for the first part of last season and then let him go a bit for the last half.

Rielly is ready to break out, should be really exciting to watch!

Yes. Especially that. Should really lift his point totals.
