I strongly believe coaching and management come second to the players when it comes to the (historical) success of Team Canada

Unfortunate news for continuity, but I can guarantee you that Shai, NAW, RJ, Nembhard, Brooks and co. are upset about '24 and want revenge.

lord knows I could use it

thanks buddy

miss you too Matt! Is this where the cool kids hang out?
