I’m still going to cheer for an American to get goal 70 lol

I’m cheering for the dumb American too. The team is more for pity.

I just don’t understand the we are doomed proclamation before one minute of playoff hockey has been played.

And I am definitely not an overly optimistic person but dammmm it seems like being that pessimistic wouldn’t be much fun is all.

Oh well

Makes them feel better. Cause at least if they lose they are right.

Absolutely! I’m a Patty Kane fan. Love watching him play - I also loved watching Modano, Chelly, and a few others. Their players that make it do so in spite of coming from a country that know nothing about the game. In a way more impressive to be honest. But I stand by the fact the overwhelming majority of Americans have no clue

Majority of Canadians as well actually… notable percentage difference tho.. roughly 40% popularity in Canada and about 15% in the US. Still makes the US the place with the largest fanbase tho

Nylander is smoking crack.

I see no other logical reason for the way he’s playing.

That’s because there are many more options. Plus the environment makes it easier to get more involved. I doubt South Africa is going to develop any superstars anytime soon.

All about the environment, nothing more.

Or it's yet another meaningless game, and like every other player not actively trying to dish the puck to Fatty Matty, he's checked out?

Yup… 15% in the US is a bigger number than 40% of Canada, plain and simple.

Yep - agreed. But again, watching is one thing and understanding another.

I love watching documentaries and half the time have no clue what I’m watching. Ha.

Canada is basically the population of California…which you can buy for the low price of $47 which is 718 CAD or something

Lmao I was waiting to see if anyone called that out.

In fairness to Jones he hasn’t played a game in quite some time but what he is showing isn’t far from the REAL Martin Jones IMO.
