I'm making a thread to discuss both games today: -13:00 EST / 10:00 PST ― CAN vs. FIN -20:00 EST / 17:00 PST ― USA vs. SWE Team Canada news: Cale Makar *is* playing, Binnington gets the start. If the first game ends in regulation, the winner will advance to the final against USA. In case it goes to overtime, Sweden will be able to advance with a regulation win.McDavid and Mackinnon off to a hot start! Finland taking their timeout 5 minutes into the 1st.

Let's go Canada and get into the game on Thursday!

McDavid and Mackinnon off to a hot start! Finland taking their timeout 5 minutes into the 1st.Point with the third goal in the first! I feel for the Finns but let's keep it going

Also, sucks I'm stuck at work for thisNo family day where you live? Or work just not giving you the holiday? Either way I feel your pain, bud

No family day where you live? Or work just not giving you the holiday? Either way I feel your pain, budMy industry is such that unless the holiday is Xmas or on that level, we are always working. And even then it's in the emergency response field, so the crews are technically available 24/7/365. Such sigh.

Also it's weird to see McDavid and Doughty being pals

Also, sucks I'm stuck at work for thisHah same, real shame too because these games have been a treat so far.

Honestly don't see how we don't see a CA v US rematch at this point. Fins are in a super deep hole early on.Me neither. What happens if Canada wins and Sweden beats the US tonight? There'd be a tie for 2nd.

Me neither. What happens if Canada wins and Sweden beats the US tonight? There'd be a tie for 2nd.Canada has to win in regulation OR it gives the Swedes a chance to win in regulation to take 2nd. 3 points for a win if it doesn't go to OT.

Hah same, real shame too because these games have been a treat so far.Top notch internationals are always amazing.

Guy played the finals with a broken sternum... Shame

Also it's weird to see McDavid and Doughty being palsDD has always seemed to be the kind of guy that still has that 12 year old sense of wonder in him. Like, he grew up a massive Canadian team fan and a Kings fan. Not playing in those sweaters is just something that doesn't compute for him. He flips the switch from hate to love with any new team mates. Has always been amazing in the locker room because of it.

ShameIt sounds like he'll be good for Thursday, but we'll see when we get there. I agree, he's kind of a spiritual leader on that team and not the type of guy to sit out over being banged up.

I love hating on Tkachuk's but it's the same hate I have for guys like Marchand. Hate to play against them, love it when they occasionally find their way on a side I'm rooting for. Would always welcome that type of player on the Kings.
