Dean Lombardi when asked about the World Cup:

Reports are Gaborik could be gone for 2 months - Yikes!

Tough luck Gabby. Get well soon.


Anyone catch what happened? I watched the game and don't recall anything happening during it.

Shot off his foot from his own player (Kopitar?).

Okay, I'm confused.

Clearly you hate America, dash.

I think what he's saying is Colin Kaepernick should stand for the anthem.

And. . .

It's all code for "white privilege"

Which would make America great again.

Hey, that's not true, America is the second greatest country in North America.

I think the phrase "lipstick on a pig" comes to mind...

World Cup of Hockey trophy gets facelift

Is that Drew Doughty pounding one back?

Only way Team Europe has a shot is if Luca Sbisa is inserted into the lineup.

If Team Europe wins and Ralph Krueger gets his day with the trophy, I hope he takes it to Edmonton.

I still don't get why some people like the NA jersey. Halloween color scheme, generic oddly sized font, boring striping... I know dipshit Puck Daddy has shot his load about them for months.

Canada And Sweden are sharp as fuck, the rest are shit.

I don't think anyone actually likes it, it's more that it captures the ridiculous gimmicky nature of that team. And it looks so 90s in its faux edginess, which also suits the team. Also, could end up being a funny collectors item.

I personally, from a design standpoint, like Europe's logo...

Canada has really dominated the third period. I'm going to go ahead and say "It's over." Team Canada wins and might be the best team in the world.

Hey... if you guys don't want controversial statements, don't allow me in the thread.

Seriously, Dash. Who let him back in?

I know a group that likes that north american jersey ... 8 year old boys. Adidas better have a good supply of the small/medium youth mcdavids because everyone on my sons team wants one lol. That jersey reminds me of olympic mascots. Designed with kids in mind lol

/Btw overheard on the bench prior to practice tonight

Kid 1: why does mcdavid have to be on edmonton anyways
Kid 2: because they suck
Kid 3: i went to edmonton this summer and its junky
Kid 1: i never wanna go to edmonton

Good to see that after a 2nd period that was hot garbage.
By far the worst 20 minutes of their tourney. Glad that didn't have time to fester.
