24:46 lmao hearing the pleading no in the background was hilarious
9:58 what is wrong with people?,,, honestly wtf is wrong with the whole world, why do you all think you need an opinion on my countries politics? why are you telling us u tweeted at elon, do you think you are on equal footing here???U DONT EVEN LIVE HERE, this is so bizarre, and why are so many people complaining about the world quite literally being liberated in real time,???u mad because hes leaking info???? WE CALL THAT TRANSPARENCY,, AND HONESTY WHERE I COME FROM BOTH OF WHICH ARE GOOD,
Thank god MacLean is back!
4:11🖕🏿🍁🐔 🦅
I think it's a bigger worry about the states in this tournament because we haven't seen them for a decade.
Not to mention , our world jrs went south the last couple.
In 2016, we were coming off Vancouver and socci so we were the clear favorites. And had every reason to be confident due to seeing it for a decade.
Americans going #1 in the draft a bit and the possibility That this is the golden age of USA hockey.
Enough junior championship teams developing into freat nhlers
Let's just stick to hockey. Politics and religion is always highly opinionated and generally divisive today. Keep to the hockey rivalry and things that can be decided on the ice, put the other stuff aside.
47:02 sophisticated?????? except that is pretty much what normally happens and there will also probably be more than 0 USA fans in attendance
Negotiate in good faith? Canada did that 4 years ago with Trump. He proclaimed it was a wonderful agreement. Now he tore that agreement up and wants more. Where is the good faith?
'Merica
Guys I understand the protests but cannot disagree more with booing national anthems !
It’s people’s right but I don’t like it due to what the anthems stands for
Let’s stick to four nations talk vs politics boys
Canada looked so impressive
If they didn’t lose a D man I think they have won by two in regulation
Yet another example why Tkchuck is the best player when the pressure is on.
As an American, you SHOULD boo the f out of us. I love my country, but it is being taken over by fascists and is being run by someone we did not elect. I get that this is a hockey podcast, but as you say, you cannot ignore the political tones of this game. For the "keep politics out of sports" people, let this be a blunt reminder that sports will always be political. And if it helps rally canada against a megalomaniacal dictator we have here then great!
Nope.
Canada – Russia.
Canadians have been booing the American national anthem for years. Lightning vs Leafs a couple years ago they claimed it was the fans yelling Soouuup for the goalie.
Nice when they aren't talking about the leafs. Doug was a hilarious guest today lol
These anti Boo hockey people are all.Bull Crap!
Hockey.players live in a Freaking bubble! Hell, Bobby Orr & Wayne Gretzky are MAGA Trump lovers. It makes me want to puke!!!
I'll give it to you guys for keeping it real for the average Canadians. A lot of the damn media people, trying to play nice!!!
Their damn President is sticking it to our country & trying to take us down economically & then says that he'll take over our country!!!
Let these damn American players come out publicly & condemn what Trump is doing, if they want us to stop booing!!!
As far as the Canadian players like Marchand not liking it, TOUGH LUCK!!! You feel badly for your American Boston team mates. SHUT the Hell up & stand up for your country!!!
WE'LL ALL FREAKING BOO BECAUSE IT'S THE RIGHT RESPONSE FOR CANADIANS!!!
No more mister nice guy!!!
Wake the U.S. people & players up. They bloody well voted that monster into power & this is the price you pay.
And by the way, I have a sister, 2 kids, 2 grandkids & lots of friends in the states & we lived there for 17 years.
For me it's our country that counts & we all need to defend it & stand up for it; however we see fit!!!
McKinnon unfortunately hogged the puck way too much in the OT. He went in one time & tried to deke through 3 players & lost the puck while McDavid & Makar were wide open.
Hopefully Cooper will remind Nate that if you pass to those 2, they will set you up to score.
It makes no sense for media to continuously ask players about the booing and political climate because not a single one of them, on either team, could possibly understand the consequences the average Canadian faces in threat of annexation. They are all simply not in a tax bracket that would see much negative impact.
I am more inclined for the US politics but this Saturday I will be rooting for Canada- you guys need to feel good about your Country again!
I'd rather have Chris Tanev way before Brayden Schenn 10 times outta 10
Poor bill g.getting attack by doug
4 nations game tonight boys
MAHAA. Make American Hockey Awesome Again!!!
Doug needs to shut up about American politics. We're doing way better now
Gentlemen,
Sammy:
I support your Saturday night take.
My two Gen Z kids are coming home to watch the game in the basement.
Doug:
"Enough already"
Luv it.
DROP THE 🏒
STILL going with USA WINS Saturday Night and the 4 Nations
Canada vs Russia is best hockey rivalry
GO CANADA GO🇨🇦 U-S-A🇺🇲
Let’s go USA 🇺🇸 God Bless Trump 🤍 God Bless Hockey 👊🏻
USA the power house that the country is has threatned to annex Canada….when you first heard you laugh right? BUT there are serious issues going on behind the scenes. Not just the Fentenyl issue. If you know politics and follow what Trump has been saying …not what's on X your concerned. USA could in fact annex Canada. USA GDP 30 trillion and Canada is 3 trillion. Our government does not disclose whats going on at a National Security level. The USA is worried about what China has with weaponization that they have now…..For mental sanity you want to blow off Trumps comments but the way of the world is its very different now man. I say Canadians have every right to boo. Players shouldn't comment about it. Not good for the NHL. I'm not sure if I'm even going to watch this game tonight. If Canada loses..riots in Montreal?? Politics are at its worst I think.
I hope to hell Bennett’s in the lineup for this game
Doug is the voice of reason on all of this political bs. Well said Doug! And great show boys. I’m nervous right there with you Sammy. Anxious useless energy for me right now. Just hung up two of my Canada jerseys in my windows. Will have red and white lights shining on them tonight. Go Canada!
I want MuDavid to drop the gloves with Mathews
Always such a treat to let doug take the show off the rails!
Trump LITERALLY the most popular, just FYI
Good to see Doug back and well.
Yeah, this is the biggest game ever except if the team that wins this one loses the final game, a week from now no one will remember this one.
Gents, don't ever make the mistake of telling an American citizen about America ever again. None of you are Americans. You married an American? Great. You're not an American. You have two passports? Great. you're not an American. Your kids are American? Great. Your not an American.
We have collectively had enough of your liberal crap up there in Canada. You support weak feminine leaders like Trudeau and its exactly why your country is in shambles. Each and every one of you sat and did nothing as your entire country was forcible disarmed and forcibly vaccinated. Love the show, but don't ever tell me about America again.
TAKE NOTE: The exclusion of Russian born players stands in clear contradiction to the NHL’s non-discriminatory “inclusion” policy. ✔️
Oh piss off you old fart, he’s threatened to take us over and you’re feeling are hurt because we boo’d you! Grow a pair!
The reason I stopped watching Steve Dangle is he has a rainbow leaf on his wall.. and went on about his politics, which I and most of the world disagree with. No.. men indeed should not play in women's sports. And our kids don't need to hear about it in schools. So as a Canadian, and Trump supporter, I suggest you focus on our leaders first who've made this once great country into a 3rd world. Go take a stroll in downtown Kingston and see all the fentanyl addicts. A once great city. Stick to hockey.. and Sammy, if you want to boo the American national anthem.. don't ever support Auston Matthews ever again.. complete disrespect. We're Canadians. Be better.
To brush off booing the national anthem and then suggest to do business dealings in “good faith” is wild.
Hows it feel to have buffalo/Seattle choke the life out of Canada's forwards last night? See you guys on Thursday for the rematch.
