00:00Now how much taxing time do you think it took on these players who came out and played especially
00:06Team USA and Team Canada because we know how physical both of those teams played in that
00:11game last night and overall in the whole tournament are you worried about some of
00:16these players even the ones that didn't face injury going down the stretch now?
00:21I think we have to be and it's really by a team by team player by player basis you know for the
00:26New York Rangers, I'm a Rangers fan, JT Miller, Vinny Trocek, Chris Kreider and Adam Fox all on
00:34Team USA. Zabandjan was on Team Sweden so like five of their players for the USA players you
00:41know really play a lot and they have to play tomorrow against the Buffalo Sabres so I'm really
00:46interested in the Buffalo Sabres money line tomorrow I'm already on that I'll also be
00:50specifically looking to Tate Thompson for a goal once that gets posted you know Tate Thompson was
00:55one of the snubs for Team USA he really should have been there he will be there next year for
01:00the Olympic roster so a lot of players playing heavy minutes for Team USA is where I'll be
01:05looking and then I also want to look at the Winnipeg Jets. Connor Hellybuck as you mentioned
01:09played a ton Kyle Connor was scratched didn't play in the last game so I think that's fine but
01:13Josh Morrissey was dealing with an illness did not play in the finale last night that is a major
01:18impact so there could be some situations where I may be looking to fade the Winnipeg Jets for as
01:23good as they were in the first half of the season they're gonna have a backup goalie in there at
01:26least in the first few games and then their defense won't be as good without Josh Morrissey who's been
01:31not just great this year but over the past few years he has been super solid and then I also
01:34want to look to Mark Scheifle for either shots or goals he was also kind of one of the snubs
01:38for Team Canada he's having a great year out there for the Jets so I want to buy into essentially
01:43good players who were snubs like they're snubs for a reason right when they're not like every
01:48player's a snub like Jason Robinson for Team USA Clayton Keller some of these players that were
01:52apparent snubs they're good and they were they have this extra motivation and it's a little bit
01:57of a fun narrative to buy into yeah they're absolutely going to want to step up what do you
02:02think it's going to be like in the locker room between Austin Matthews and Mitch Marner we know
02:07Mitch Marner set up Connor McDavid in overtime for that beautiful goal on Connor Hellebach well
02:14he's teammates with Austin Matthews Austin Matthews on a Team USA taking the loss because
02:19of that play do you think those guys are just going to hit the ice and be back to normal out
02:24there Tom I do I think they'll have their their jabs and what have you behind closed doors but
02:31you know when the puck drops like it's game time it's business time they are in a very tight
02:36eastern conference race they have a tough matchup you know on this side of the break to get things
02:40going versus the Carolina Hurricanes who we know are super strong so like you know have your fun
02:44in practice have your fun behind closed doors but once the puck drops it's game time for all of
02:49these teams and all these players that were you know teammates now they're facing off against each
02:53other now they're back to being teammates whatever might be like it's time to get things rolling back
02:56in the right direction
