A 5th place finish is horrendous

Worlds are for losers anyway

Worlds are for losers anyway

so are you expecting many rangers to be there?

 

[Plub]

Why though?

 

[TheMule93]

A 5th place finish is horrendous

their roster was average at best 2017 U.S. Roster

What number will Auston be wearing for usa big guy?

 

[Machinehead]

What number will Auston be wearing for usa big guy?

He'll be wearing 34 for the Leafs in the playoffs.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

What's the alternative? Weight? Housley? Blashill actually did a decent job with the team last year.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

He'll be wearing 34 for the Leafs in the playoffs.

Plenty of time to make the trip overseas after losing in round 1.

I mean, I know this isn't super important, but are there any other alternatives to this guy? I dunno, I guess I just have no belief in Team USA's management anymore

To be honest, all of USA's options suck

 

[Bounces R Way]

To be honest, all of USA's options are coaching playoff teams

FTFY

Pretty much this. The big question should be does Patrick Kane accept. Him playing from the get-go would be huge.

Nevermind. Apparently they named him captain right after announcing Blashill as coach. Thats what I get for looking at a Sportsnet article.

 

[Oddbob]

As a Wings fan, I say ouch! This is the best US Coach they could find?

 

[Hatter of the Beach]

Someone tell team USA only NHL teams get a chance to draft Dahlin and that there is no need to tank

 

[ffh]

Thought eichel would have got the job

 

[Tatar Shots]

FTFY

Which is why all of their options suck...

Already discussed in the USA roster thread.
