GDT: 2019 IIHF U18 Tournament

[Unfriendly Ghost]

It's kinda weird to me how they pretend the US winning this tournament is the same as another team winning this tournament. Like the rosters are completely equal. The US winning is like going to a restaurant, getting takeout, and claiming you made dinner. A pre-existing team in an assembled team tournament is an absurd advantage.

If Dach was healthy and Byram was out of the playoffs, we could conceivably be looking at 9 of the top 10 players come draft day.

Hughes
Turcotte
Zegras
Boldy
Caufield

Byram
Cozens
Dach
Krebs

Good year for North American hockey.

I seriously doubt Podkolzin is falling outside of the top 10.

I’m really liking Lucas Raymond for next years draft

 

[newfy]

Hmm if hes playing hurt, that will be known to NHL teams. I bet his stock wont be impacted that much

Would love a player on the team named Broberg

Sigh... watching Jack Hughes makes me sad.

Honestly Yzerman coming home > Hughes for me

I just can't root for the US team while they use the Blackhawks goal song. That song is forever ruined.

Chelsea Daggers? I know, I used to love that song

I wonder if I can fit "Don't tase me, Broberg" in the username field.

Awesome, I'm definitely going to try and catch a few games. Maybe my opinions will actually have some qualifications lol

How do you even do it, anyways? I’m assuming you have to have so many posts/points

I'm not sure what's required, but if you click your profile icon (on mobile it's the upper right hand corner), you'll see a change username option. I want to say you can only change your name like once a year.

He had some bad play's at his own end

@Bench and I used to joke that the more a Swedish prospect looked like Avicii, the better they were.

Avicii's first big song was Seek Bromance.... he recorded his first song as Tim Berg... So drafting Broberg feels like it has some potential here.

On a serious note, I thought he played pretty well in the tournament and I have warmed up to him a bit.

Simon Holmstrom played pretty well in this tournament. Given his last name we have to take him... right?

Don't ever bother. It's only what people do when they've annoyed so many people that changing their username is their last resort.

Eh, Doc Holliday?

Here were all of Turcotte's points and highlights from the tournament...
