siddious Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Those types tend to be the most favored. Heart and soul guys always strike a chord. Not disagreeing. He?s looked good. The fact that a 5th rounder is even on this team is great. Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Impressed with Schneider. Berard lacks any high end level of any skill. Thinking Ryan Borque. Sent from my SM-G950U using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Berrard looked like Hollweg. I don't get the hype. I saw Skinner, did he dress, or just come out dressed for celebration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Who else wants to see Schneider throw that shit into the empty stands proving just how badly he just wants to win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Yeah, I don't really get it, either. They were talking like this team would go in with the two other dream teams. That seems silly, now. They may not have iced a single 1st line NHLer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 What do you think the median household income is of the US teams families? 400k? It looks like a Skull and Bones meeting out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may not have iced a single 1st line NHLer. Well, when u roll through a tourney playing crap this is what happens. Goes to my thought that this is a fairly meaningless thing. I didn’t want any Ranger ready to make the team available for this. Still don’t remotely understand how Chicago let Dach play.....now he’s out for the year. Nuts. Should be non NHL experience only, 4 teams invited, and any club that rejects to their property gets their wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Sure, then any club could not release their player. Why should a SHL, or KHL team have to release their property? Why release anybody for the Olympics? If you don't think it means anything, fine, but I wouldn't tell that to Bowen Byram by the look of his face, post game. 20% of Finland watched their Quarters game. It obviously means something to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4EverRangerFrank Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Bowen?s face along with quite a few others told a story - this is hugely meaningful. Bigger outside the USA by an order of magnitude. I?m interested to see TV ratings if they?re released tomorrow. Overall I bet it will be impressive as hockey fans everywhere got to see some hi-skill action. But I expect USA numbers to be unimpressive too.

Sharpshooter Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Congratulations to the Red, White and Blue! Huge victory! This might be one of the biggest victories for the US in World Juniors play. That Canada team was loaded even without Lafreniere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Canada came out flat in the first, thinking they had already won. They didnt look anything like the Canada we saw all tournament. By the time the third came around, they were in a panic - a position they had never been in, and it showed. It was a replay of the 1980 semis, where Russia was still dominating play but it wasnt their game. Canada was kept to the outside, and seemed to be fine with it. USA took away the middle of the ice, and it shut down the Canadian offense. All Canada had to do was stop the puck hog and they'd shut down the US. They didnt seem to focus on Zegras very much as they should have - again, came in too cocky. Berard - nice to see the energy, but outside his 2 or 3 shifts, and 1 rush per game, he needs a lot of work. His position off-the-puck is questionable, and he really slowed down as the tournament went on. He's not going to be able to sustain that play for multiple games at the NHL level, any time soon. But that's what you target with 5th round picks. Still a good sign to see him on the team after his draft year with a bunch of 2019 first round picks. Schneider - struggled early in that game, nerves? Overall, a good tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 I thought Schneider was good. Couple bad handles offensively, but I really think he's a much better version of Robertson. I dare say there's a little Keith/Weber in there. Byram was just magnificent, they leaned on that pair too much, but can't blame them. Best Canadian forward was Dawson Mercer.

BrooksBurner Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Will they? Byfield is a massive project, I'd be a bit worried if I were LA from what I saw. I was firmly in the Stutzle over Byfield camp. We'll see how that pans out, but right now Stutzle looks more promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of think these two will be neck and neck over the long haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 A few random thoughts in no particular order: 1. North American hockey is in damn fine shape. The Canadians are still obviously the world standard, but what the USA Hockey National Team Development Program has achieved since 96 is damn impressive. 2. LOL @ the Florida Panthers having both goal keepers, hell of a problem to have. 3. Stutzle and Lundell are going to be really good 4. The State of California had a nice night from a prospect perspective. 5. I was ?\_(ツ)_/? when the Schneider pick was made.. Now I'm 100% on board. Great size, grit, noticeable. Most importantly- I think this is a fantastic tournament.. A great tournament that I absolutely understand/endorse/applaud the Rangers not risking ALF or any rostered kid with WJ eligibility- they have played the tournament before, its time to be a pro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
