Wolf getting shafted even though he never let in a goal. The only way he gets in is if Knight shits the bed again.
Win-win scenario for youUnfortunately I succeeded to stay awake

I have liked Pelt's game though, he's got more bite than I thought.
Funny, reading the scouting reports, I would have thought Zary is a safer player but based on this tournament, I am convinced Pelletier will be an NHLer. Dude has character and energy. He can fit in anywhere from top to bottom 6.
That's not to say Zary wont be one. I am just more impressed with Pelletier
I’ve always been crazy high on Pelletier, you’ll see that through the threads I said he’s a poor mans Marchand since the day we drafted him. But it definitely helps I’ve had the pleasure to see him live 50 times.Definitely people overrate this tournament, but it is best on best so I get it.
Pelletier IMO has been one of the better Team Canada players. Relentless on the forecheck and doesn't make a lot of mistakes. Guys like Perfetti get way more opportunities (PP, more 5 on 5 icetime) and have looked like ass IMO. Pelletier impresses in the right way
agreed. I don’t think many people is over hyping anyone.
Zary- there is a lot to work with there. He’s fast, he’s in the right position to be involved. He just hasn’t shown much finish or ability to slow the game down. Understandable considering he’s never played at this level, is playing a new position, isn’t getting much ice time. I don’t think he’s been great but he hasn’t been bad considering his role.
Pelletier-I don’t know how you can’t love his tournament. He’s been a puck hound. The amount of puck he’s not only stolen, but turned into scoring chances is insane. Kinda reminds me of Mangiapane at this point in his career. He’s among the scoring leaders despite not being on the PP. he’s on the first PK unit and has been dynamite. Outside of Cozens he’s been the best forward for Canada so far IMO (Krebs too).
Kuznetsov-He’s solid in his own zone. Great at stopping the cycle.Coach loves him. He’s playing big minutes. I just don’t see anything other than maybe a #6D. Maybe he’s just really young and can still improve his puck skills and offensive abilities.
I'd be intrigued to see what a Pelletier-Bennett duo could do
That’s what I seen from him when we drafted him, the safe pick isn’t always a bad choice.So apparently Kuznetsov has been the key player for the Russian PK. And his UConn coach said today that he fully expects him to carve out a lengthy NHL career
Zary had been asked to play LW in a 4th line role. That is a new position for him. Yesterday he played 3C.Zary new position? He plays center for Kamloops the past 3 years.
