The Tampa Bay Lightning are going to win the Stanley Cup again
I can't pick against Tampa... their team is just so stacked. Last year you saw they were like just heads and shoulders above anyone else. And people kind of say, oh, they don't have Kucherov all year. I'm like, yeah, that's great. They're going to get him back right for the playoffs... he'll be ready to go. And then you just throw that guy in with the team they already have.

He was trying to stabilize on his right leg and it just, it opened up, which to me speaks MCL sprain... I'm hoping it's not too bad and it's just a grade one, maybe two MCL sprain.
Team USA has a better defensive corps than Canada, but Canada has significantly better forwards
The D's better overall. I believe their forwards are significantly better than ours... Crosby being out, it's scary. And if he's out, that's a big difference... On D our D's better, their forwards are better.
