Re: 2018 Canada's Olympic Women's Hockey Team
something does not seem right with Shannon Szabados. But ever since the salacious and yellow journalism publicity that she was subjected to after her stint with the SPHL her performances have looked off to me. Maybe her age, too. Maybe I am wrong, and maybe she will play well in the final, but i just cannot think why the coach would put her in the final for reasons beyond just experience and past history. Maybe she will play well in the final. But i am not confident about this. after all, she has played crap in the past only to be clutch in the most important games. But I am not so sure this time around. Maybe I am wrong.
this team, at times, looked like russia today! Slow, passes not connecting, and wingers making errant passes when pinched along the boards. This will not be acceptable against team USA.
Rebecca Johnston is the best player on this team when she has linemates who can match her ability. the problem is that her and Poulin have almost zero chemistry and that is why she is not playing with Poulin. Jenner has great chemistry with Johnston but not the same in skill level. And Saulnier is a further drop from that. I will never understand Irwin not playing with Johnston. If the coach wants Irwin to play defence (waste of her talents IMO), she should have another Turnbull do it, who is a great 2 way player. brianna decker will score against team canada women. She always seems to.
