I had more fun watching Team NA than any other team in the tournament, I don't give a poop what the teams are if it's fun to watch.

Because the States weren't worth watching.

Even if they put together a reasonable team, I would still root for NA, like I said, I don't care what teams are in it, I just want to watch good hockey. I don't really root for USA, ever, in anything.

Not sure if anyone else has seen it, but Patrick O'Sullivan made an excellent suggestion. He suggested before this stacked group of Canadians age too much (Within the next 2-3 years) they should have a "Ryder Cup" style hockey series. Canada vs The World in a 7 game Series. I think that would be absolutely amazing to watch, and Canada is currently so stacked, I believe that's the only way to give this group of guys a true challenge.

i thought it was very fun to watch. not the point though. it's not a true best on best world cup if we're making up teams to play in it. just an NHL money grab. but sure it was fun.

Absolutely. My only problem with the tournament was the name. If you're going to call it a World Cup, teams need to qualify, not be invited.

Best on best will always be the olympics for hockey, there's a certain prestige and honor players have when playing in the olympics that I just don't think the players feel with the World Cup, so I'm cool with the money grab if it entertains me, as long as the players still play in the olympics.

i hope they don't play in the Olympics. the next two are in south Korea and China. so unless you like watching tape delay, the games are going to be at like 5 in the morning.

I mean thankfully Sid was there to legitimize Marchand. Otherwise Toews and especially that puke bag Bergeron were not up to the task.

The move, the pass and finish were all sick. One would think it's a team game or something.
