I never really get over hyped by WJC players but my goodness... Zegras is f***ing INSANE. The last player that looked this good was McAvoy. A player that looked so dominant in these tournaments. My goodness is he good.

I think the fact that he has done it twice now bodes well for him. The only concern I’d have is that the Pacific / West is still a division of big boys and he ain’t.

One thing I look forward to when the Pens start to suck is seeing our high end draft picks in the WJC.

Didn't we all enjoy watching our 8th overall pick Derrick Pouliot on Team Canada? :)


*cries*

If we get FF... do we get Kessel? Does HBK form and we win? Do we end up with Sully? Do we end up with the 2016 squad, which for my money is the GOAT hockey team in the cap era. I don't think a single team can beat them in a best of 7.

I thought Pens 2 new goalies for Sweden and Finland were playing in the WJC? yet to see them on the box score. Not watching the WJCs.

Wasn't even thinking about FF. Just DP not panning out

This Team Canada may be one of the best Team Canadas that we've ever seen in the WJC so far. Yeah, the numbers are skewed a little bit due to that Germany blowout, but they're downright dominating like I haven't seen in recent memory.

Russia is really lacking in skill lately. This looks like a B squad compared to their teams 12-15 years ago.

If you haven't tuned in.. this 3rd period has been wild. Russia only up 2-1.

Not watching this game but it’s be a Cinderella story if the Germans won.

14 ****ing skaters for the whole tournament!!!!
