What they could do when they’re totally comfortable is scary.

Hall had a hat trick to lead Canada in a 10-0 rout of Germany on Sunday, keeping the Canadians at the top of Group A in the international tournament.

“I think the coaching staff has done a really good job of preparing us for what it’s like on this big ice and giving us tips and pointers on what the successful teams do over here,” said Hall. “We’re trying to incorporate that and I think we’re doing a good job.”

Cody Eakin had a pair of goals for Canada (2-0), while Aaron Ekblad, Claude Giroux, Tyler Ennis, Sidney Crosby and Matt Duchene also scored.
