They get the flowers.
They hung around the game.
The goaltender counts.
And guess what?
Going into the tournament...
The biggest question for Team Canada was, do they have a goalie?
And how do their goaltenders compare against the American goaltenders?
Right now, in our country, we have like one thing that's viewed as a true hockey crisis.
We're still pumping out the superstars, right?
Like Team USA still has not, like they can point to these Jack Hughes type players or Austin Matthews types players.
They have not been able to develop the superstars like the kid we brought up, Macklin Celebrini.
He was 19 years old.
He was the second best player in the tournament.
They have not had a Sidney Crosby.
They have not had a Connor McDavid.
They have not even had really a Nathan McKinnon, if we're being honest.
What they have done is they've completely tilted the board when it comes to goaltending.
The U.S.
has probably at least six goaltenders who could have played for Team Canada.
That's because the Americans are unhinged.
