LaxSabre - Well I posted a picture of O'Reilly yesterday when Canada was down 2-0 and they came back to win.
Might as well do it again today and this time I'm doing it a tad early as I want them to tie the game 1-1. Comon Canada! Go O'Reilly!

Ryan O'Reilly just scores the game tying goal in the third after scoring the game winning goal yesterday.

He's playing easily more than any Canadian forward and is leading the tournament with a faceoff percentage over 70 percent. Total beast.

If Canada wins gold ROR is the player of the tournament.

Wouldn't be surprised to see O'Reilly become a consistent 70+ point player, so talented.

ROR's amazing play at wing in this tournament is yet another reminder of the options our previous coach had but never really took advantage of.

He is such a versatile player.

Not only that, he's playing on the right side with Giroux and Simmonds. Just a machine -- and it was so not a surprise that he got that goal back.

+1 I hope the design is good. If I get a jersey it's either Risto or ROR. Shame it's not so easy to get these across the pond but maybe because it's winter classic they would make them more available.
