I really hate to say it but team USA looks better on paper
Beyond goaltending...absolutely not. Canada has probably the best 4 players. McDavid, MacKinnon, Makar, Crosby. I think as Canadians we tend to overanalyze our own talent.
Canada is so screwed, that goaltending is the worst this nation has ever seen
Also 0% chance Tavares gets named to any Team Canada squad
i definitely don't trust Hart. The good thing about not having a clear no. 1 (if there is anything good) is that you can play the hot hand. Whoever plays best this next season could be the starter.

Canada has the high end talent, but the US defense is very very good. I’d say they are better than Canada’s defense that basically is the Makar show
