Piss poor planning to schedule the game right before closing ceremony, hence the need to end the game as quickly as possible via 3-on-3. Like, you KNOW, that it's the most anticipated/hyped game/sport to watch, give the fans what they want.

It certainly doesn't help that the US being in the gold medal game (and then winning) probably drew millions more viewers and, based on ratings, may reinforce the idea that the format was a "good thing" for future Olympics.

In any case, Hellebuyck was just an absolute wall and could have still stolen it for them if it was 5-on-5 OT. But at least the game would have been so much more satisfying to watch even if Canada lost that way.

I gotta admit, I have respect for these guys. Nice of the Hughes brothers to defend Matthews against Toronto media.


Edit: I retract my comment above after learning of Kash Patel’s visit/comments in the locker room.

Yeah what is up with these random people hanging out with the team when they’re celebrating - did you play a role in the victory? Just like Trump on stage with the World Cup. They really have no sense of shame!

Not a fan of 3on3, but everyone agreed to do it.
USA and Canada had to win OT games as part of their path to the final game.

3on3 is a very big game of possesion and Canada had arguably the three best players in the world on the ice at the same time.

Makar went for that 50/50 recognising McDavid was still deep after his coast to coast rush. If Makar believes he could win that 50/50 to poke it back to McDavid, then so be it.

Sadly, you cant expect your best offensive guns to make the smartest defensive plays on that back check.

Makar stopped skating in the neutral zone. He could have recovered regardless what happened in the offensive zone and picked up Jack Hughes on the backcheck, but he probably expected MacKinnon to win that battle for possession.

Yah how Makar didn't want to come back to take Hughes is going to haunt me almost as much as Big Nate missing the open net.

you guys see the video of trump calling the saying he needs to get them to the white house and at the same time says he has to invite the ladies too other wise he'll get impeached and everyone laughs.

assuming it's real, what a cock bag. and the men's players laughing at it should be ashamed of themselves. wonder what their mother's and wife's think of that.

where as you have the canadians win both and I guarantee Cosby would be fighting to have the women's team there with them to celebrate.

Pretty sure it's real... they want to rush the men's team back so that Trump can show them off during the State of the Union.

US Women's team declined their invitation to the SotU, so good for them!

IIRC correctly Mckinnon had a choice to either go after the puck or play the player and I believe Makar and McDavid expected him to play the puck in which case they might have expected to see the puck go up ice quickly. McKinnon had a split second to make his decision and opted to play the body instead and that did not go well at all.

TBH, I was surprised to see this trio out at the same time - I figured it'd be McDavid w/Celebrini plus any D man and then McKinnon+Makar and maybe Marner.

Being a right wing conservative in Canada is not so bad really, like unless you’re a separatist 51st state nutjob you can still be a very reasonable respectful person no issues at all.

But to be full out MAGA nowadays is a special kind of dickbag.

The next trade for the Canucks?

Sportsnet report:

A veteran on the Vancouver Canucks' blue line could be heading out the door.

Defenceman Tyler Myers will not play on Wednesday night against the Winnipeg Jets for roster management purposes, the Canucks announced ahead of puck drop.


The 36-year-old has been with the Canucks since the 2019-20 season after signing a five-year free-agent contract with the team. He re-upped with the Canucks in 2024, signing a three-year, $9 million extension, of which he is in the second year.

The contract carries a no-movement clause through all three years, which Myers must agree to waive in order to be traded.
