Ovi is the quintessential 5 tool player. He's fast, he's big, he can hit, he can shoot, he can pass, he can skate, he can stickhandle, he can play defense....he's an amazing talent. Stamkos is also awesome, but I think more in the offensive end rather than both offense and defense, but I'll be sure to watch him.

Jonathan Drouin is one for the future eh? Amazing player!

Yeah Ovi is amazing, shoots like Hull and is explosive like Bure. I'd love to see him get his Cup

[El Kabong]

I always loved the way the Russian players played...but their hearts are questionable especially for NHL teams. It's like soccer players who go over seas to play. They won't give 110% sometimes, they'll be lazy, they'll quit....they'd never do that for Russia of course, just for NHL teams

[Beanflicker]

When Ovi is motivated and playing at both ends of the ice he's incredible.

Problem was too many years it was all offence and too much of this in the defensive end HAHAHA

Apparently Tampa DID have Montreal's number this season....wasn't even close. The Habs were game after the 2nd goal, but they didn't come out firing like that from the start or else they would have had a chance

[Beanflicker]

I was happy, Habs had a lot of bad luck hitting the post, but that's how it goes.

With them out I don't care as much who wins the cup, although I want it to be either the Bolts of the Caps, and if not them, then Chicago.

The IIHF tournament was great, probably the best Team Canada I've seen in my lifetime.

Shame on Russia for bolting before Oh Canada played, poor sportsmanship. I understand they got absolutely murdered in every aspect of the game, but don't be a sore loser.

Canada got the bonus 1 million Swiss francs for going 10-0 with all wins in regulation time. Fuckin dominant.

[El Kabong]

Ovi tried to get the guys back out there but oh well classless on their part.

Best team Canada? Uuuuum Gretzky and Lemieux?

The youngsters for the US did ok

[El Kabong]

Thank GOD the Hawks won that game...had they lost it would have been over

[Beanflicker]

Two nasty series going on. Mario and Wayne together were great but this team had way more depth IMO. Most dominant team in IIHF history.
