I really like McAvoy after getting to see a lot of him this tournament. He's fantastic. Glad Sweeney didn't gently caress that pick up. Lauzon looked decent for Canada too.

Caleb Jones looks pretty good too, he'll have a good shot at breaking in with Edmonton.

Joseph and Chabot are examples of the type of drafting Saint John does which is why I'm thankful they're entertaining almost every year.

Playoff games and championship games should never be decided in shootouts. You play until someone scores - period.

It's bad enough we have them at all.

The shootout is the worst way to end that game, and that was the worst way to end a shootout. Everybody, fans and players, deserved for hockey to be played until there was a winner.

The stadium is the first building you attempt to claim after society collapses though. Block off a couple exits and it's safe, you can grow crops on the field, there are high points for visiblity and stores of hot dogs so loaded with salt they don't expire until 2094.

Shootouts are horrible and should be removed from playoff/medal hockey at every level.

I get why they need them for everything but the gold medal game, because of playing multiple games at the same arena, but holy gently caress the gold medal game is the last game of the tournament just let it go on until the players die of exhaustion.

I wasn't expecting Canada to get past Sweden, so I'm happy they did end up getting to this point and played one hell of a game. But going to a shootout to decide who wins it all sucks.

-Trump
-Has anyone made a comment about gun violence in america to complete the hat trick yet?

There are only 4 NHL goaltenders with a career .800 or better in the shootout (Jones, Khudobin, Lack, and Greiss, if you care) and none of them have faced more than 55 shots. The best for a goalie with more than 100+ shootout shots against is Varlamov at .752
