Haha, they would likely end up 2-75-5, a combo Boucher, Lemaire like team. Their only wins would come against Montreal and TO. What bout team Canada could that roster win a cup. They would be cap compliant You never know however unlikely, but if they got in anything is possible as witnessed by the Canes. Not a bad D core and tender, they'd need to trade for a better #1 C and they'd need another high end scorer.

Had Johnny T stayed I think they have the scorer they need. Every year I wonder the same thing, so I'm speaking out loud.

I thought they had Dubois playing wing at various times but you’re likely right. That is a good top 3 C’s though and I forgot about Johnny Cupcake. That team could make the playoffs for sure as a Wildcard.

Canada outshoots the Finns 21-3 in the 3rd but the pesky reindeer soup lovers pot 2 gls and win 3-1. Has to rank as one of the most unbelievable stories at any WC, Finns beat the Swedes, Russkies and Canada on their way to gold and have a bunch of no names on their roster, way to go. Only 2 NHL players, didn’t score during the season, with 7 players that never played for Finland before. Collapse around Lankinen in a box.

When Canada pulled the goalie all five Finn players just stood in front of the net or in close proximity, nobody chased thew puck when it went into the corners, Canada just retrieved it and kept shooting,hah!

Capuano had a deer in the headlights look all too familiar to Isles fans i'm sure.

Ho hum, another Gold medal for the best, Owen Power is gonna be a good one. Buffalo's D core just might have the makings of getting their shit together down the road, just have to trade Eichel for a package and start again.

Did Locmelis make the Latvian team? It would be good experience for him, see what he can do.

"Tone" Locmelis scores as the mighty Latvians upset Sweden and move on to the medal round for the first time in their history, good for them. The Lats now move on to the semi's to face Canada who knocked out the Finns in a revenge game as Finland beat Canada in the Gold medal game last year aided by a shakey penalty in OT. In the other semi has the USA and Germany going at it, where's Patton when you need him? The Germans beat the Swiss in the QF's, Swiss just can't seem to get it done despite numerous stacked lineups over the last few tournaments. Looking forward to a Canada/USA Gold medal game so Looch can score the winner in OT!!

I am still shocked Latvia beat the Swiss. But this tournament has these shocking upsets almost every year. Sweden and Finland just did not look good all tournament.
Canada started off a bit sluggish but have turned it on. They've done that before. US haven't beaten Germany in an exhibition and a regulation game so far. Two Nations can play in there 1st Gold medal game. Crazy

Always think of the great dialog in "Snatch" when I read or hear Yermans. The loveable "Brick Top". "No thanks Tommy I'm already sweet enough". Yes Z Germans surprised to make it into the semis. Who has better chocolate and watches now ? If Lucic scores the game winner against the Yanks then I'm not coming back to this thread.

You know Quinn just stand there and do nothing on the Z Germans 1st goal. Player is in the crease and DeSmith can't play the puck.
Youthful inexperience showing from the US in the 2nd half of the 1st period.

One leg to go; 40 min flight but 5 hour layover.
