Nothing brought me more joy than seeing this. Too bad he couldn’t bury it.

  1. Larkin played so well this tourney. Can’t wait to see him at the Olympics next year. Definitely looks like he sealed his spot.

  2. You’re supposed to be one of the greatest shooters of our generation and you get two or three grade A setups and can’t bury it…

    Larkin worked his ass off. Easily top5 player on the USA team. 

  3. It’s too bad that he didn’t tell Matthew’s to cover the best hockey player in the world in freaking OT!

  4. Larks has to be one of the most underrated players in the league. Think we all knew it, but now the whole world knows it too.

  5. Larkin’s hockey IQ is one of the best in the nation. I need to see him raise that cup, he deserves it!

  6. Bennington had such a great game. He was the difference maker imo.
    But man, what a great game and awesome tournament. I’m so stoked for the hockey World Cup and then the Olympics.
    And I’m looking forward to nhl fans saying, oh crap it’s that Larkin guy, when the Wings make this playoff push.

    Great time to be a hockey fan

  7. The whole team is gonna come back rested and fresh and Larkin is gonna be so fired up. We’ve got the makings of a strong ending to the season.

  8. Should have told him where to play defense too apparently on that OT goal. God Matthews is a bum

  9. D-Boss raised his stock some more after this tournament. His US spot for next year is definitely secured.

  10. It was good to see him move his way up the lineup as the tournament progressed. Also good to see him get to play some playoff type intense games. will definitely help if we can ever finally make the playoffs.

  11. Remember when they started him on the fourth line and collectively went “I was unfamiliar with your game?”

    You know Ken and Mickey are gonna talk about that at length Sunday and I can’t wait.

  12. Larks is so fucking elite. So is rayzor. I’m so proud of our boys. I hope this tourney injects some energy into the remainder of the regular season.

  13. Larkin has been playing winning hockey on losing teams. Awesome to see him get the recognition that he deserves from the larger hockey world.

  14. Raymond would’ve buried one of the chances that Matthews had and you can’t change my mind. Can’t teach clutch

  15. Between him and Raymond playing in this tournament hopefully they carry this momentum forward and go on absolute terror. Nobody should feel safe against us

  16. He does this all the time, has for years, and I’ve noticed that the broadcast team rarely says anything about it. He’s a great FO guy and QB for offensive zone draws.
