USA teams shouldn’t be flying to Canada in the preseason. There shouldn’t be OT just have a shoot out.
You finally did it Montreal Canadians they’ll be bragging about this preseason game for the next decade.
Defenders cannot make decisions like that in their zone, with no one but their goalie behind them (you don't try to dangle past guys like it's a video game. Circle back behind your own net, wait for help to arrive. They need to have more patience w/the puck, break up the flow of the game if it means preventing a turnover like that (and I know that comes with experience), but as mentioned, he is at that age, mixed in with a lot of up, and coming players, he has to be smarter than that! Ronnie probably needs to go to a new team where he has a better opportunity, like Torts said, the games are going to decide things.
Habs fan here, hate hate hate the ole ole ole chant at all times, not just preseason. Hey, if it's game 7 of the Finals, and we're up 5-0? Ok maybe then, but still wouldn't love it.
