[Wyldnwoody44]

Damn, a screen goal 

[Indabuff]

Need to equalize here

[CallawaySabres]

Reinhart and Eichel…..no wonder we will suck forever.

Seeing eye puck is what I call that. But we can all admit nobody should be booing anyone’s National Anthem. We all love this sport and no sports should be politically driven.

They should watch Fox and Newsmax instead right? 

People can draw their own conclusions from whatever network they watch.

[Stads]

If Brady Tkachuk feels like crap, they could have played Tage

[PonyBoy2]

As a newbie here on this board, can I please ask to stop the political posts.

The players, fans, anthem singers have nothing to do with the leaders of their countries.

Let's enjoy some old time hockey!

It's rare that such highly paid athletes play in exhibitions with such passion as we've seen between these two. 

Off my soap box. Let's go USA! 

[SabresBillsFan]

My biggest thing with the US is how quiet Kyle Connor and Matthews have been. 

[Pimlach]

Sad to hear about McAvoy.   My respect for him as a player went way up because of this series.  He was a big key in the win against Canada

Back to the game. Seems a bit more open than last game. 

[Indabuff]

Nice saves right there

Agree, we need a Kyle Connor sighting. He’s been far too quiet and I have seen him play a ton. He is too good to be a non factor.

Sounds like the Bruins were pissed at how the Minnesota Wild doctors handled it. Wgr talked about it this morning.

Well Conner got scratched and Matthews was hurt last game for starters 😉

Sabotage?

[OverPowerYou]

I watch sports because it’s a nice distraction from the world we live in, especially politics. Why does that stuff always have to come into it? 
 

I just want to see these teams beat up on each other

Can I draw my own conclusion from Trump repeatedly saying "51st state" and members of his administration repeating it? Can I draw my conclusions from his own words, which he said today?

I don’t talk politics here, but I can’t believe he said it again.  I saw coverage on tv and quickly said this to my wife, “I really hope he doesn’t say uhhhggnn, never mind …”. 

[SabresBillsFan]

What player on this USA squad do you wish was not in the lineup then?

Nah, I just think the Bruins didn't like it. Probably feel their Dr's would have caught the infection earlier. McAvoy ended up in the hospital. 

[bunomatic]

Feel ***** for McAvoy. You can see how much being out hurts. That benefits the Canadians but you like to see teams at their best in these short tournys.

You know what? When your President is threatening to aggressively take over my country, the country I love, you're going to get booed. That's the reality. I'll step off the soapbox now.

[SabresBillsFan]

The loss of McAvoy is a big one. I love it that he was hitting McDavid. Even the best players need to get hit. 

[Indabuff]

Looking like ass in the neutral zone

[LGR4GM]

Buffalo could easily have Eichel, Reinhart, Hagel, and Bennett on their team. Sigh. 

And McAvoy

100% agree

[pastajoe]

Trump’s press secretary kept up the rhetoric today when she said, ‘The White House looks “forward to the United States beating our soon-to-be 51st state, Canada”.’  But Canada should be respectful. 🙄

I still don’t understand how Hagel was not signed after he was drafted by Buffalo.
