Canada and USA tied 2-2 in the women's gold medal game. Third period. It's on TSN

Captain Canada!!!!!!

The drought is over!

Wish I could have watched.. Good for them!

3 on 3 with no shootout in overtime.

The two teams were evenly matched. The US had history on their side, but today was Canada's day.

It's a great day for Canada, and therefore, THE WORLD

CHAMP BABY

NHL is going back to the Olympics in 2022!

^ don't hold your breath, there's a lot of time from now till then, lots can change in a month, let alone from now to Feb ... and in China, of all places.

I have a friend that plays in the KHL. They scouted him from UBC to play for the Red Stars so he would be eligible to play for China in the Olympics.

He said he's pretty excited to play in the Olympics, but at the same time he knows they're going to get their ass pummeled. His pool has Canada, USA, and Germany.

:lol

Hopefully NHL players can play.

I didn't even bother watching the last one. Just didn't give AF.

Montreal letting Kotkaniemi walk

https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.tsn....9689%3ftsn-amp

Not a big surprise with Kotkaniemi. They healthy scratched him in the finals. Apparently he had spoken to someone after signing the offer sheet saying that he had felt that he had already played his final game in a Habs jersey.

It'll be interesting to see what MTL does next. They absolutely need to fix their depth in the middle now. Probably going to be a big trade coming soon.

edit: ok, not a big trade but MTL trades picks for Christian Dvorak :lol

Dvorak is a great pickup, lots of teams were interested in him and (just my opinion) he’s way better than KK

yep, you aren't the first person to say he's a better defensive centre than KK. I was more laughing at myself because i was expecting something bigger by MTL.

Just admit you wanted a Pettersen offersheet lol!

Haha i actually hadn't really thought about that. there was some wild speculation that they might try and get a deal done for Eichel.

NOTD: Virtanen to KHL for one year ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Guess I was half right that someone will take a chance on JV:pokerface::pokerface::pokerface:

100% Benning's fault on this. Wasted money on retaining JV, let Toffoli walk. Cap issues and couldn't keep Toffoli? Also Benning's fault.

^ I agree from that time... but if we had Toffoli, we probably wouldn't have been able to do the OEL/Garland trade with salary dump too... nor would we be able to afford both Petey and Hughes without the salary dump...

I mean nobody knows how all that stuff would have turned out, but I think this team is better structured now than it would have been even with Toffoli being a great player.

I WILL say though... that if we had kept Toffoli... I would have hoped Pearson would have been gone...................... but I wouldn't give Benning that much credit.

I would definitely say our team would be better with Toffoli instead of Pearson if that scenario had been allowed to play out.

I can't believe his stock fell THAT far that he has to go overseas.

joke virtanen

lol, JV gets to play with Petey's brother, Emil.

I would actually be fairly surprised if JV ever came back to the NHL.

he can go prove himself in the KHL, he's still "young"

u better hope he doesn't get into trouble over there too

Can JV18 leave Canada with pending charges? Or do allegations don't count?

I don’t think there were any criminal charges? Just a civil suit.
