What were the highlights of Canada's win against Czechia?

Unknown 0:00
Here's Ryan Rashog. Ryan, I hate to ask you this, but was there anything negative? Because I didn't really see anything. What did you make of the game this morning?
Ryan Rishaug 0:11
No, I mean, the most negative thing is obviously the status of Josh Morrissey moving forward. That could be a pretty big one. So there's that. But I mean, really, guys, John Cooper tried a whole bunch of stuff, and a lot of it felt like it worked pretty darn well. That top line that he put together, you know, I thought they played really well. Celebrini ended up with the goal and McDavid was shot out of a cannon. I thought Wilson was fine on that line, right?

What is the significance of Josh Morrissey's injury for Team Canada?

Ryan Rishaug 0:40
They had some nice time. The three-headed monster down the middle worked. um yeah just a lot of stuff worked and it wasn't an easy game like at 30 minutes it was still pretty tight and the shots were pretty even and stuff so i like the fact that canada was pushed it wasn't a cakewalk which is good for them i think so no man that's outside of morrissey fellas that's that's a pretty solid lid lifter for team canada rish i know you're one of the best reporters in the world covering live sporting events especially the game of hockey
Unknown 1:11
Do you have the same view as Noodles where he just lets things unfold and he has no emotion? Or did you watch that hockey game today like me and Hazy B and say no one's beating this team in red and white?
Ryan Rishaug 1:25
No emotion. I would be more like Noodles. How do you know? What's wrong with you?

How did John Cooper's strategies impact the game?

Ryan Rishaug 1:31
You're Canadian.
Unknown 1:32
They're just weird people. They are. What the hell is wrong with you, Rish? Do you not have a pulse?
Ryan Rishaug 1:39
You didn't get jacked up at all? No. My family makes fun of me. My friends bug me. Some people don't even believe me. I don't cheer, man. I don't. It's just the way I'm wired. I'm hardwired as a sports journalist. How am I supposed to you know get into those scrums and ask uncomfortable difficult questions if i i've got a foam finger up at my uh you know in my spot where i'm working i'm not trying to be a hero i'm not like i get it but i just it's not the way i think like i was in the building working on the broadcast when sydney crosby scored the golden goal and there's an angle you can see that goal He goes in, the place goes nuts. You can actually see me get up and walk around to the Zamboni and down.
Ryan Rishaug 2:29
The whole place is going bananas. And I just like stone face, just walked over there. I was like, I got to do an interview with Sid here. I got to figure this out. So no, man, I'm pretty, pretty level headed. As boring as that answer is.
Unknown 2:42
Wow, listen, I would have jumped up and cheered in the golden goal, or at least given a thumbs up.

What were Ryan Rishaug's insights on Connor McDavid's performance?

Unknown 2:48
That is a little bit of a hero move, pushing people out of the way. Bobby Mack and Jimmy told me that they were at that game, and the golden goal happened, and they just sat there and watched it. I'm like, what the hell?
Ryan Rishaug 3:01
hell is wrong with you guys yeah well bobby matt just said he was he just stared and i'm like nothing he goes no i have well i don't care my really quickly my golden goal story i interviewed sid on the ice afterwards and uh i asked him three questions the first one i asked my assessment tell me about the goal The second one I asked him, I said, what was it like sitting in that room after letting the lead get away, knowing you were having to go into overtime after blowing a lead? And the third one I asked him was, you know, how do you think you played, Sid? Because, you know, had this not been you that did this, some might have, you know, questioned your tournament a little bit. Because, remember, it had been quiet.
Ryan Rishaug 3:42
So, meanwhile, the PR guy is in behind him, like waving his arms in the air, like, wrap it up, wrap it up, wrap it up, right? Because they had just won and everything. And stupidly, I listened. So of the three questions I asked him, two of them were fastballs kind of in his head, which was a little much. And I should have just said, Sid, that's one of the biggest goals the game's ever seen. I'm like, how do you feel right now? But I listened to the PR guy and wrapped up the interview, guys.
