DJ Eco Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 McDonaugh and Stepan on Team USA because Tortorella thinks it's 2013. They're not even the top Americans on their own team, much less throughout the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only worse decision the NHL could've made would've been letting Under Armor do it. Seeing every team parade out there in the same template jersey with the stripes on all of them makes it feel like such a gimmicky joke. One of the reasons I couldn't sustain giving a sh!t about MLS.

Their judge of character by naming some of these guys in the first phase shows their eye for players has not improved since last Olympics, and probably gotten worse.

SterioDesign Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) Jesus christ team canada looks impressive and there's still a bunch of good guy left, Pietrangelo, Burns, Giordano, Seabrook, Nash, Marchand, Perry, Giroux, Sharp, Stone, Letang, Johansen, Ladd, Hall etc etc Glad Subban is not there, shows they won't fall for his flashy sh!t like fans are.

They're not even the top Americans on their own team, much less throughout the league. All kidding aside, but are you nuts? McDonagh is one of the better shutdown defensemen in the game. He basically has carried Girardi the past two seasons. That takes a toll. What's more? He's had injuries. And is still having a good season. Stepan is a good two-way forward that can excel in a tournament like this. He is a superb penalty killer and has a knack for scoring big goals. I don't see how you can be serious with this.

Their judge of character by naming some of these guys in the first phase shows their eye for players has not improved since last Olympics, and probably gotten worse. Both are easy choices. Faulk with a potent shot especially on the power play and Yandle for his great passing. Don't forget Shattenkirk too. USA is hurt by the Under 23 NA roster which includes hot shots Gaudreau and Eichel. Saad too. Gibson will soon be giving Schneider competition for the Olympics.

Triumph Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Stepan's a fine player, but I doubt he'd be one of the first players I named to the team. Abdelkader especially not, as the US surely has better players than him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I do wonder how many players end up declining the invitation to this tournament. It's not like their is any prestige or tradition behind it and the whole under 23 teams make it a joke too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadDog2020 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 The jerseys suck and the young guns/Team NA thing is the stupidest idea the league has had in a long time, which is saying something for a league that cranks out stupid ideas like it's their job. I couldn't possibly care less about this farce. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Saw some other pics and don't like the jerseys as much now...the red stripes on the sides on the black ones seem out of place: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/pass-or-fail--team-north-america-2016-world-cup-of-hockey-jerseys-003236132.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) A friend of mine said the NA logo looks like a swipe design to unlock your phone. Just an absolutely awful design and the Adidas stripes on the sides of the jerseys are horrendous.

So i guess that means it's not a "stupid idea" it's simply an idea that you don't like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's stupid because you have players who have probably dreamed of growing up to play for their home country now possible playing against their own country. I had read that they aren't even going to be playing national anthems. Really hard to argue against this tournament being nothing but a farce. I would like to see the under 23 players refuse to go to this dumb North American team. Edited March 3, 2016 by Satans Hockey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
