In this edition of 32 Thoughts, Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman break-down everything they saw from Canada's opening game at Milan against Czechia. They get into an impressive debut for Macklin Celebrini (10:00) before delving into Czechia's struggles (13:00). They move their attention to the Americans who defeated Latvia (14:00). They talk about the intricacies of IIHF rules (19:00). The fellas also unpack Slovakia's impressive upset of the Finns (23:00) and the Swedes handling of the Italians (31:40). The Final Thought is a humourous look at Kyle's lack of air conditioning at the hotel (42:42).
