Paul Bissonnette reveals shocking predictions for USA versus Canada at Four Nations faceoff
NHL analyst Paul Bissonnette revealed today what he thinks will happen between the USA and Canada in their Four Nations game.
The round robin portion of the Four Nations tournament is starting to come to a close but which teams will move on the finals remains in question.
This afternoon, we watched Finland upset Sweden with a huge overtime victory, tying them with their Scandinavian friends on points in the standings.
It was a tightly-fought back-and-forth game that ended on the stick of Mikael Granlund, who rifled a shot past Linus Ullmark in overtime.
Meanwhile, Granlund's teammate with the Dallas Stars Thomas Harley has joined Team Canada on an emergency basis potentially getting into tonight's game depending on Cale Makar's status.
Tonight we will get to enjoy the second half of the double header as Team Canada takes on the USA for the most anticipated game of the event, other than the final, which very well could feature both teams again.
Former NHLer Paul Bissonnette is clearly hyped up for the game as he dropped his exciting predictions for the contest.
Biz is a proud Canadian like many former NHLers and is anticipating a 5-2 Canadian victory.
"My good buddy Whit but tomorrow I'm not speaking a word to him. We're not losing on 🇨🇦 soil. No more tummysticks. Canada 5-2. McJesus will rise."
Of course, Biz being Biz, he could not just leave his comments about the game and the tournament there.
He also went on a rant about the format of the games, particularly with regards to the television broadcast, which includes more commercial breaks than your typical NHL game does.
"Enough with the TV timeouts. Reduce them. I think right now, we have three TV timeouts per period. Sometimes, the way they're scheduled, you'll have one, and then a minute and a half later, there's another whistle, and they go to another TV timeout. It's brutal. It's like going to an NFL game."
This is a take that all fans can agree with, regardless of what side of the border we live on.
