Really, I didn’t have Auston Matthews getting caught puck watching and then puck pursuing while leaving Conner McDavid wide open in the slot on my bingo card for this game. He is normally an excellent defensive player. But I wonder if he was fatigued and just not thinking straight by this time of the game. Team USA could have used a lot more minutes from the Matthew Tkachuk spot of their lineup. And maybe just a few less from the guys who were on the ice for the overtime goal.
I blame Cameron.
It really is his fault, tbh

I absolutely am certain that he’s out of control, barely sane, and eventually homicidal… but damn, Bennington finished strong.
Precursor for the Olympics? I believe so!
🇺🇸 played their guts out. I'm not disappointed in them in the least.
That was a great tournament and finale.
