GDT: 2018 WJC • Game 10 • Group A: USA (2) - SVK (3) F

[93LEAFS]

This game is ripe for an upset. The USA is looking ahead.

Probably decided the way the coach thought they were best utilized was to play Woll the first two, Oettinger tomorrow and Woll vs the Finns.

Why is Oettinger not playing? Who is playing tomorrow? What a weird way to manage your goalies.

It is odd to me because you are left with 2 options with the way they have done it. The first one is now you have to play Woll a 3rd time in 4 night on a back to back....Or you are tossing Oettinger in against Canada cold. Not a ton of logic in it to me.

Tkachuk has been a beast. Deserved.

saucy

There you go Brady

 

[Woodhouse]

There we go, Tkachuk.

 

[MackAttack26]

Tkachuk and Fox are the only two players who I have liked for the US so far.

Andddddd Tkachuk scores. Kid is good

 

[snipes]

For a small and skilled guy Yamamoto is fiesty.

Now we will really see what Slovakia is made of, do they crumble or continue to battle?

They have to be inspired by the first half this game though.

Bellows is strong and he’s got some release on him.

you would think but so many times the huge underdogs just collapse when the fantasy hits it's first snag, it's the rule rather then the exception.

But so far so good right now, they are still battling hard.

 

[Statsy]

Now that Slovakia has some belief, this game is getting pretty interesting.

Continue to battle. They are playing well. Sticks everywhere.

Makes no sense. I have faith in Oettinger but to throw him in cold against Canada when Woll has already seen action doesn’t make sense. Was way more practical to start Oettinger tonight and Woll tomorrow

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Thankfully, Woll stopped that Studenic chance. Another near miss for SVK too. Geez.

If it weren’t for Woll it would be 3-1.

 

[DeflatedFootball7]

Is B. Tkachuk a bit of a derp? That dude he was laughing at facewashing him was twice his size.

 

[PG Canuck]

Slovaks have had some good chances.
