With the men’s Olympic hockey rosters being revealed, HockeySpy.ca is wasting no time asking the questions that need to be asked, including:
🏒🥅 Will the Tkachuk brothers once again make fools of themselves by initiating—and losing—fights for no apparent reason, as they did mere seconds into the Four Nations Cup?
🏒🥅 Which high-profile team will be eliminated via a shootout, causing fans of that nation to mock and ridicule the use of such a tie-breaking format?
🏒🥅 Which team will foolishly leave elite snipers at home in favour of multiple “grinders”—only to be eliminated due to an inability to score goals?
🏒🥅 Will the drama and excitement of a gold medal–winning “golden goal” be ruined by a coach’s challenge and/or video review?
🏒🥅 Which underdog nation will be the first to knock off a world hockey power thanks to their goalie “standing on his head”?
🏒🥅 Isn’t it odd that the silver medal winners—who lose their final game—are often miserable and despondent, meanwhile, the bronze medal winners—who win their final game—finish the tournament smiling and exchanging high-fives.
🏒🥅 Will you be playing the Sidney Crosby Drinking Game, which calls for all participants to slam back a shot of liquor every time the broadcast’s talking heads drool over his “leadership,” etc.?
🏒🥅 Are you hoping to see the first-ever Olympic goalie fight as much as we are?
🏒🥅 How many NHL players will suffer long-term or season-ending injuries, leading their fans, GMs, and team owners to unite in a call for no further Olympic participation?
🏒🥅 Do the Canadian and American coaches realize that they will be vilified endlessly for the rest of their lives if a controversial decision they make spectacularly backfires?
