I was crying when they sang the national anthem, great team ,

Ditto !

Congrats to Team USA!

Great future for USA Hockey. Also excited for Rangers' prospect, Gabe Perrault, being a difference maker.

[@Cedisdead]

The ref was the biggest difference maker that game. Disgraceful

Happy for the boys! As a Canadian, I only get to hear about some of these prospects from down south, never get to see their skill set, but I have to tell you, they are very impressive. Lane Hutson in particular, glad he’s a prospect for Montreal! Congratulations from 🇨🇦!

More impressed how the ref got away with those bribes

[@michaelmacintyre6996]

@@Cedisdead I will agree, the reffing was a little suspect, not too sound to biased, but I do prefer North American refs and North American style of hockey over European.

That “Philly fans stand up right now” comment didn’t age well. Cutter is now with the Ducks after refusing to talk to any of the team’s representatives. That was a bizarre turn of events.

[@d.owczarzak6888]

So proud of these young men !

[@RRaquello]

One thing as an American hockey fan I would add as a caution--the US had the best team because Canada's best eligible players are already in the NHL. I root for the USA, but let's keep it real.

[@fredirecko]

if they are in the nhl doesn't that make them ineligible?

[@newtron1]

​@fredirecko under 20 year old NHL's players qualify.

[@RRaquello]

@@fredirecko They're not ineligible, but if Conor Bedard is playing for the Black Hawks he can't be playing for Canada. My point is Canada's best players are better than the US's best players, so they're already in the NHL. If the US's top players were better they wouldn't be in this tournament, but they're better than everyone else who is there.

[@fredirecko]

@@RRaquello lol, I don't think you put much thought into this but whatever makes you feel better

[@RRaquello]

@@fredirecko It don't make me feel better or worse. It's just a kid's tournament so I don't make a big deal over it, but you don't think adding Bedard, Fantilli & Korchinski would have made the Canadian team better? If the top US players were as good as that they'd be in the NHL now instead of still being in college. Logan Cooley is the only eligible US player I can think of who is in the NHL. I'm a US fan, but just trying to be realistic.

Too bad you left out (like ESPN) the esprit de corps of the team as they gleefully sang our National Anthem during the Award Ceremony. What, patriotism is too hard a pill to swallow for you talking heads ?!

Nice ref, missing a blindside hit to the head and a swing to the face. Feels bad for the robbed Swedes

Explain how that will make up three goals (never mind the Empty Netter).

Gabe looks good. Patrice Bergeron mold. Cutter for Philly also has it. There are many future studs on the roster who are going to have NHL impact.

[@xBridgeFour]

How does he remind you of Bergeron? 🤔

[@royanderson3478]

@xBridgeFour Hockey IQ .He seems to understand how to play a 205-foot game .He was a first round pick for having potential at the next level. Gabe plays the game the right way. NYR should be pleased 😀
