Is Team Canada Already Gripping...???

((HT: Sportsnet))

Although, at first glance, the HQ would wonder why in the hockey preliminaries...

But...

By failing to win in regulation and having to take the Finland match to overtime, Canada did not clinch the top seed and a favourable matchup in the quarter-finals. It means the Canadians are the tournament’s third seed and could face Switzerland in their next game.

Sixth-seeded Switzerland and 11th-seeded Latvia play Tuesday in the qualification round.
The winner meets Canada in the quarter-finals Wednesday.

So... is there cause for alarm...???

MacLean was not happy, either, from a front office perspective...
Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports that the number of players in the lawsuit is now over 200...
