Brought in as the honorary captain for Canada, gave a thumbs-up to the US bench, ignored the Canadian one. Just wore a regular jacket while the US ambassador wore a US Jacket. Also, big Trump fan.
Have they removed him as the honorary team captain after that stunt?
I assume he was originally chosen as the honorary team captain because he is considered the GOAT in hockey just like Lionel Messi is the GOAT in my favorite sport, soccer ("football" if I'm outside North America)?
No - I doubt he will be.
It seems so political.
When is the next team Canada event? Winter Olympics a year from now?
I would really like to know the rational behind his appointment.
Maybe someone here knows
Gretzky has dual citizenship and he's a close friend of Donald Trump's 🤮 so perhaps he'll end up connected in some way with Team USA. He played for the Indy racers, the Los Angeles kings, the St Louis Blues and The New York Rangers during his career.
“You cannot take our country - you cannot take our game”
Prime Minister of Canada in response to trumps certainty Canada will be a 51st state and America will win the hockey final. He is wrong on both accounts.

I'm an old lady with serious army boots.
That’s what we get for having heroes whose only claim to fame is fame. Boo.
I’m American, but I was rooting for Canada. Sorry, but not.
❤️✌️

I'm still outraged over Trump's treatment of our closest allies.
Many of us have friends in #Canada we hold dear and business colleagues.
It's not too stable right now down here so protect yourselves.
