There are *no* Hurricanes in the World Championships. When will we *ever* get any respect?!?

Yes, I know Luostaranen is playing for Finland, but it wrecked the joke, so I ignored it.

USA didn’t want to take Darling again?

And he’s never played for the Hurricanes!

Looks like they found a clear upgrade.

Watching Kakko dominate vs Canada was no fun. Just what this division needed, more elite talent.

Kaapo Kakko making a statement. 3 goals and the tournament hasn't lasted 4 periods.

How was that Hughes boy in U18?

DEFEATING CAPITALS WAS VERY BENEFICIAL. I REALLY LIKE HAVING VRÁNA AT WORDS.

CROW IS KILLING IT SO FAR.

Ok, this is probably hot take central, but Kakko over Hughes....does that have any chance? That guy looks incredible.

I don't think so even though I think Kakko has a similar ceiling and probably a higher floor than Hughes. It seems like New Jersey has already made up its mind to go with Hughes. But there's always a chance they could change their mind however small that chance may be.

It’d be fun (not for them) if one of them ended up Alexander Daigle #2

All this talent going to the Metro has me missing the days when the Oilers would win the lottery. Never thought I'd say that, but at least those guys were out of the conference

 

[My Special Purpose]

This playoff run is really ruining the World Championships for me.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

The notion of Kakko being in our division is ruining the playoffs for me.

All we hear is radio Kakko.

Dammit. Eetu took some ill to the knee and left the rink. No further info yet.

 

[Lempo]

Ninonino expected to join Switzerland.

 

[Lempo]

Eetu is out of gear, have some brace in his leg and limps away with crutches.

I teach high school. One of my students lives near a bunch of players. She said she ran into Nino this morning and that he didn't look upset and was mildly excited to go to play for Swiss at the worlds. I don't know any other context, but that's pretty frustrating to me. I want every player on our team giving their 100% on every shift. I can't fathom our players not being bothered by last night. There were a lot of passengers out there. To me this makes me think twice about Nino's competitiveness and drive if he seemed to be OK with losing. I could be reading too much into it.

Yes, probably.
