The Brier field is mystified that anyone would even bother to try stealing

Yeah, it’s a 1/20 shot and even if you make it you’re only up one without… the three was a layup, and the odds of a steal are better than that

Yeah, I think the abject fear of stealing in mens really clouds too much of the play calling.

Aside from our endless inability to score, they actually seem to be playing fairly well

Is the PWHL game going to start at some point, or is this some kind of psychological experiment?

I like that TSN will allow OneSoccer PBP as long as it's not Gareth Wheeler.

Remember when top teams were loathe to play on the outside sheets? Now it seems like most tv games are cause the CC can get their ad boards on air.

Principles are nice… but money is better

TSN staying on a 8-0 game is peak TSN.

And since when did we even start caring about Worlds?

- There is dead time in the schedules, could cram them both in after the Olympics
- WC could more the Worlds dates back a week in Olympic years if CC is really as important thas CC thinks they are

It's not like there aren't options

I agree with them that playing right before the Olympics isn't ideal prep, but nothing bout our qualification system is ideal for prep.

- CC could flip the order every four years.
- CC could just say Olympic reps don't get to play period (I like to imagine the men crying endlessly about that one)
