In addition to the on-field struggles, off-field controversies have also plagued Manchester United in recent years. The revolving door of managers, with the likes of Jose Mourinho, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and now Ralf Rangnick, has created a sense of instability and uncertainty within the club. The decisions made by the board and executives have been heavily scrutinized, with critics questioning their vision and long-term planning for the team.

Kyle Connor and Josh Morrissey look at their teams’ rosters for the upcoming 4 Nations Face-off and feel like kids in a candy store. So much sweetness – where do you begin? The two Winnipeg Jets and goalie Connor Hellebuyck will represent their countries in the February tournament, surrounded by many of the best players on the planet. “Just a ton of speed,” Connor, in Buffalo where the Jets were to take on the Sabres Thursday, said about the American squad. “Everybody brings something different to the table, but at the same time everybody’s pretty dynamic. It’s going to be fun. A lot of different line combinations you can probably come up with. Head coach is going to have a tough job. “But as a player you relish the opportunity to get a chance to play with somebody you might never get a chance to (again).” When Connor hits the ice with Team USA he’ll look around him and see Auston Matthews, Jack Eichel, the Tkachuk brothers, Matthew and Brady, the Hughes brothers, Jack and Quinn – the star-studded list goes on. “Anyway you slice it, there’s a ton of options,” he said. A ton of people he knows well, too. Five of Connor’s teammates are from his home state of Michigan: Hellebuyck, the Hughes brothers (Jack from the New Jersey Devils, Quinn with Vancouver), Dylan Larkin from the Red Wings and Columbus’s Zach Werenski. “We skate with those guys all summer,” the Jets winger said. “And to be able to get a chance to be in live competition and compete for something, it’s going to be really fun. “It’s a great honour. Something I’m looking forward to. It’s a close-knit group between a lot of those U.S. guys.” Like Connor, this will be Morrissey’s first experience with this many of the world’s top players in a tournament. Having watched as a 15-year-old when Sidney Crosby scored the golden goal for Canada in the Vancouver Olympics, the Jets defenceman will now be passing 37-year-old Sid the Kid the puck. “I’ve never had the chance to play with a guy like Sid, among a bunch of other great players,” Morrissey said. “You start playing the armchair coach and thinking about different options... it’s fun. It’s exciting. It’ll be an experience I can’t wait to be part of.” Among Morrissey’s other Canadian teammates: Nathan MacKinnon, Connor McDavid and Cale Makar, only the best in the world at their positions. “If you’re a coach sitting in the dressing room looking at the white board picking out lines and power plays and combinations, there’s so many great options,” he said. “My experience in short-term competitions it’s all about coming together as fast as possible. Buying into your role and coming together in a short term is important, and being dialled into the system.” Morrissey has played for Canada in two World Junior Championships and one World Championship, the last one coming seven years ago. Connor has pulled on the Stars and Stripes for a World Championship, but it’s been eight years for him. His NHL coach says his recognition as one of the best in the game is long overdue. “We often talk about (how) he goes under the radar at times,” Scott Arniel said. “Not everybody knowing his skill set and how well he plays.” Some early prognostications have the U.S. as the favourite going into the tournament. “No comment,” Connor said. “There’s a lot of good teams there.” His current teammate and future rival is on one of them. “The goal,” Morrissey said. “Is to go there and win the tournament.” paul.friesen@kleinmedia.ca X: @friesensunmediaThe scheduling issue of playing matches on a Wednesday and Sunday has raised concerns among fans, experts, and even the coaching staff of Real Madrid.
