Tavares has three goals in three games so far. He picked up where he left off when he carried the Isles in the playoffs.

Team Canada’s roster is loaded. They are the clear cut favorites to win this thing. It’s amazing to see how well JT is playing with this star cast. He’s the kind of player that makes others around him better but he really seems to be feeding off Canada’s other talented forwards as well.

Hopefully Andrew Ladd and P.A. Parenteau will be enough for Tavares to work with

A look back at Howie Rose's time with the #Isles in the works when the PB Podcast returns on Monday. Should be a lot of fun.
