Omg what a perfectly placed shot

 

[bwanajamba]

Tavares, PLD and Hagel getting hemmed in for like two minutes (and scored on) by the DEL's finest

Still love Hagel but a real bad controller unplugged moment for him on the goal

 

[Hattrick Kane]

Well Bedard is Canada’s best player here. Unfortunately, you’d expect a lot better from a lot of these guys.

 

[bwanajamba]

Jack McBain is straight up ass. I get that it's some of these guys' only chance to play for Canada but as a neutral observer, kind of annoying they sent Fantilli and Celebrini home.

 

[Wally1112pac]

Bedard is auditioning for the 4 Nations Face-Off.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

Bedard gets a goal off a great defensive play by him.

Bedard carrying these bums

Bedard carrying these bums

Goes to show how bad the Hawks roster was this year.

 

[Kevin Musto]

Bedard carrying these bums

Reichel was re-signed for 2 years so Bedard has to get used to carrying bums

 

[CallMeShaft]

Bedard couldn't even get a hattrick in either of these games. BUST.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Bedard is a golden god

 

[CallMeShaft]

Bedard is currently tied for the lead in the tourney with some 35yo guy from Latvia.

This tourney has a bunch of no name guys; Victor Hedman, Joel Erikkson Ek, Johnny Gaudreau, Juraj Slafkovsky, Zach Werensky, Dawson Mercer, Seth Jones. Just a bunch of journeymen, at best.

Bedard should be putting up a gazillion points. Every time he blinks, the puck should hit twine. 5pts in 2 games is awful production.

Just noticed now, but Bedard's playing this tourney sans fishbowl.

I've heard of that Jones guy.
He used to play for NSH, right?

Think so, no idea where he plays nowadays.

 

[clydesdale line]

Man i wish we had Guenther. He and Bedard are just magic together. They played well together on the PP for Canada in WJC too.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

I’m shocked at how bad team USA looks. They are by far the most talented on paper, yet they’re struggling badly out there. Just took an L against Slovakia.

Well.. beer is cheap and tasteful in Prague.

 

[BHawk21]

It seems the shine might be wearing off on a few of these high profile Americans.

Zegras Caufield and B Tkachuk

I am shocked atvhowxnon-impactful Will Smith and Ryan Leonard have been...hardly getting minutes..of course stupid U D. Coach refuses to play them on same linex(so chemistry /familiarity wasted)..

In contrast Slafkovsjy looks great for Slovakia...
He will be a dominating monster as he matures (still only20) and doninatevwith his sizexand sjull package....preciselyv thexreason Hawks need to draft Lindstrom...

Ahh yes.. $9.5...quintessential Lossr
..U.S.A. already onlyv1xwin in 3HP (1-1-1) but I guarantee they will not win mich with $9.5 playing so many non-impactful minutes.

Wait...you are goibg to give me the Seth has to play his off side D (LD) to partner with Wrens..

Look...theyvare both Losers. U.S.A. Is doomed.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

if Brady ever becomes available at a reasonable ask would love him on Bedard's line

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

I don't think USA's record really means much at this point.
They have France, Poland,. Kazakhstan, and Latvia remaining in these early games.

They can finish 4th in their group and still advance to the knockouts.
