Laffy will be a top player, but lets not forget Crosby was having an impact as a 16 year old (5 points in 6 games). Last year (at 17) Laffy barely played and had 1 goal/point all tournament. At 17 Crosby was on the 1st line and had a GPG and 9 points total in 6 games. Laffy is elite but Crosby is generational top 5 player ever. Can't compare the 2.

Looked like 70% Canadians in attendance Shaky start but we started skating, few big hits and the game started to swing our way Best to limit penalties and we need to work on a better kill Momentum back and forth all game Wow so glad to be here Go Canada go So jealous. Promising myself to go next time its in Europe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see every reason to be stoked about this kid ... if he barely played, what are you assessing against? Use last game to see his something pretty special. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canada did a good job of using physicality to limit the offense the Americans could generate at 5 on 5. The Americans kept the game close despite minimal contributions from Caufield, Zegras, and Turcotte. If they can find a way to get those guys going (Zegras and Turcotte were playing in the bottom six for some reason), I figure the US will do fine. I'm just not excited by the team as a whole this year. A few bright spots with the rest seemingly pedestrian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being negative, justt being real, looking how the team looked before the tournament started, It didn't look like the strongest team while everyone else seemed to have gotten better. The game against Russia is a big one 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Lafrienere is an unquestionable talent, love his willingness to throw the body too. No doubt the top 2 picks are both playing for Canada. Byfield is an incredibly fast/smooth skater for how big he is, haven't seen him play till this tournament & that stands out immediately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because I was at a Fogg N' Suds and we tried it. Might be one of those situations where the beer they export is crap, and the beer they produce locally is great. But when I tried it, it tasted like I was drinking water mixed with the stuff from an ashtray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
