1 minute

 

[Canucks LB]

That was awful wahlstrom

 

[Drew4u]

Wahlstrom blows. Invisible all tournament

 

[Riseonfire]

Whalstrom looks terrible, but goal scores often can in short tournament formats so I'll ignore this for now.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

US coach is going to blow a gasket

 

[Thrasymachus]

Wahlstrom blows. Invisible all tournament

Until it becomes a pattern I am not too worried about a handful of poor summer skirmishes

He actually had a few good looks at the end of the game there

 

[Canucks LB]

I love this lmao

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Hughes brothers like that tag team thing

I’m sitting on a cottage deck with a slow connection. What happened? Thx

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

man I love to see this kind of passion in a random game in August. This sport is beautiful

 

[Canucks LB]

Wtf brutal by the refs
Still 1.6 seconds left

 

[HC7]

They ended the game cause the Hughes brothers think this is fencing. They're going to get destroyed in the NHL.

 

[HokieDude17]

what the hell did any of that prove?

Quinn protecting jack is so cute lol

 

[The Jones Zone]

LOL they are calling the game over without dropping the puck

Those refs need to find a pee wee game to officiate

Unbelievable

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Should have had another faceoff ... calling the game ?

Worst post all week right here ^

Also why u hating on fencing, its fun as hell haha

 

[snipes]

A little donnybrook to end it. Love it.

Jack Hughes should avoid the late game pass to Wahlstrom in the WJC. Seen enough of it at the U-18 and now this game in the dying seconds where he completely bricks attempting a wild one timer. I like Wahlstrom and I think he is going to be an excellent player, but he seems pretty hyper to his detriment in the dying seconds of some of the big games this summer.

I would not worry either, these short tournaments if your prospect looks good, its a bonus for me, if not there regular season play is what i care most about. Seen to many good players look bad in these shorts tournaments and to many bad players look good. He just did not look invested. He is much better then this.

USA really could've used Miller this tourney. Their best all round D-Man by a country mile. Like a young Hedman, NYR struck it rich.

I like miller as a prospect but cant say I see a young hedman.

Well that's it boys and girls.
Fun hockey in the summer, Pretty meaningless tho, but still entertaining as hell.

At least we got to see our prospects play some games, and get a small glimpse into the future, See you guys in the regular season, and WJC, should be a BEAUTY if this summer games are any indication.

My top 5 players of the tourney (mostly USA + canada players since I watched them the most) in no order.

Berggren
Quinn Hughes
Michael Rasmussen
Noah Dobson
Joel Farabee

Lots of others played well, This list could be massive, but also like to HM Tkachuk, Utunen, Josh Norris who were solid.

Tkachuk who I was not very high on, who I even criticized earlier on in the games, had a great solid last few games, and his skating is much better than I thought, so in that case, even tho it's just summer camp, I came away most definitely impressed.

Overall, It was a ton of fun.

Cheers

EDIT: Oh I forgot jay obrien as well, he was very good.
