Canada Survives the Greatest Day of Olympic Hockey Ever

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning open Thursday’s show by recapping Canada’s dramatic comeback win over the Czechs. They break down the emotional rollercoaster of the game including the third period nerves and frustration over a missed too-many-man call, to disbelief at postgame complaints from Czechia's coach. They discuss the tension in the final five minutes, Nick Suzuki’s unexpected heroics, and Jordan Binnington’s crucial performance in net. The conversation shifts to the thrilling overtime winner by Mitch Marner and what it means for his legacy, before debating how USA's tightly-contested matchup with Sweden compared. The show wraps with a discussion on the excitement of 3-on-3 overtime and whether the NHL should further embrace the IIHF format across North America.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
