The opening game of the 4 Nations Face-Off highlighted the star power on display, with Canada scoring the first goal through Nathan MacKinnon, assisted by superstars Sidney Crosby and Connor McDavid. The goal was a product of a well-executed power play that included top players like Cale Makar and Sam Reinhart. Legendary Wayne Gretzky reflected on Canada's power plays, reminiscing about the unselfishness of previous units. The event took place at Montreal's Bell Centre, emphasizing the high stakes and excitement of the tournament.
The goal came 56 seconds into the game as Sweden's William Nylander served an early high-sticking penalty.
Canada's first power-play unit is like a hockey dream team, consisting of McDavid, MacKinnon, and Crosby, along with Cale Makar and Sam Reinhart.
During the first intermission, the TNT panel asked Wayne Gretzky about the greatest power play he was ever a part of for Team Canada.
McDavid looked like he was playing against a pee-wee team at times during the first period.
