00:01So, it's you-know-who again.
00:03Round 1 lived up to the hype and more.
00:07My God, I'm good.
00:08I'm not backing out from him.
00:09We have never witnessed a game with more skill and more will.
00:15Yeah, yeah, we've heard. They're not like us.
00:18No, we're not like you. And best believe, we're not trying to be.
00:22Canadians are incredibly proud of being Canadian.
00:25One of the ways we define ourselves most easily is, well, we're not American.
00:29Other than Game 7 last year, this has been the highlight of my hockey career.
00:34The U.S. dominates the sports landscape. It's a world power.
00:38And this American team should be favored.
00:40Their roster has the highest combined salary in this tournament.
00:44But what we've shown when we work as a team, we're underdogs that overperform.
00:50When we think collectively and strategically, we're world class.
00:55We were of 1812. We were Olympic 4x1.
00:58We were all Donovan Bailey when he said,
01:00He didn't pull up. He's a chicken. He didn't pull up at all.
01:03He's just a chicken and is afraid to lose.
01:06I think what he should do is we should run this race over again so he can kick his ass one more time.
01:10We share the largest border and have been great allies.
01:14When in need, we put out their fires.
01:17But don't take our kindness for weakness.
01:20On the ice or in life.
01:22Man, you guys are fun to watch.
01:24Don't play for yourself. Play for your country.
01:27Play for the guy sitting in this room.
01:29Historically, international sports rivalries have mirrored the geopolitical tensions of the time.
01:35Well, there is no better time for best on best.
01:39No better time to sing the whole anthem with your chest.
01:42No better time to not have the flag co-opted but for everyone to be on the same page.
01:48On the values they are proud of when they see the crest.
01:52It's an unprecedented time.
01:54But let the national team in the national pastime be both a relief and a reminder.
02:01One nation, one goal, strong and free.
02:05Let's go make this country proud here boys.
02:07Come on.
02:23Maybe.
02:24Come on.
02:28Bye-bye.
