What's up with Rantanen, after watching him with the Canes and team Finland he looks slow and hesitant,

hard to believe he is a 100 point guy.  Did that trade break him?

Yeah, I noticed, too. He looked very much like he has since coming to Carolina.

My aves buddy told me last night this is just how he looks. Slow and plodding along and you look up he had three points. He told me to have patience and Moose will be fine.

US giving Finland a serious whipping 6-1 with 6 minutes left in the 3rd.

Finland gave the US everything they could handle for 40 minutes. But, the Fins are a severely depleted team missing their best defensemen, and can only hold on for so long.

The Fins PP is a 5-forward set- no D-men. First time I've seen that.

One of the announcers said there are only 11 Finnish D-men in the entire NHL, and the best 3 are all injured and not playing. And the first goal of the game goes to.... you guessed it, a fill-in Finnish D-man with 1 goal  to his name this NHL season.

Also has Jacob Slavin evens out 

Nope. Slavin is a great d-man, don't get me wrong, but with hockey douches like Kreider, Trocheck, Fox, the Tkafukoff brothers, and JT Miller.....

I'm not pulling for Canada, either, so there ya go.

    • That’s not a bad idea at all. I was really liking the whole cali-style carne asada. We might do that next week instead of enchiladas for the rams. Was planning on: Saints-Gumbo Tampa-Cuban Sandwiches Seattle- Salmon Stew Tampa- Seafood Boil 
    • I agree, honestly you can not trade a player that has Balls talent. Just sitting in street clothes FOR years, it doesn't matter if you are averaging 50points on 88% with 18 rebs, 15 asst, 4 stls if you never can play. These are the worst type of players, teasers. Its HIS JOB to get his body in NBA shape and he has proven that he can not. Thus you break the rule about trading top shelf talent. Hell NBA need to have NFL contracts where the full sum isn't guaranteed, you bet your ass if his money was tied to his playing on the court he'd somehow figure out how to stay healthy.   Plus Im a old head, I member when Seth Curry in his 17(Jesus..) year career had ankle problems and guess what, he solved the issues and got all the money, championships, and fame. Ball doesn't have the same drive to figure out his body, he'd rather drive his car on kids feet while rushing home to drive his go-cart on the roof of his condo after missing his 42nd game of the season.....
