He's designated as an injury spare, so unfortunately we won't see him unless someone else goes out with an injury.

Thank you 2k2, had a feeling that’s what was going on but wasn’t certain. Othmann v Chmelar at 6:30 then.

Not to compare the two but that particular goal looked like Laine

 

[nyr2k2]

That period somehow felt simultaneously very close and not close at all.

 

[Jackson Ranger]

Luke Hughes is having a brutal game.

People talk about the US team speed and how good their defense is at moving the puck, but have they generated anything at all off the rush? Everything is a cycle on the perimeter while Latvia collapses to the middle. The US is constantly going 200 feet because they aren't competing hard enough in the defensive and neutral zones.

Nice pregame interview with Othmann. He said he was dealing with a bad tooth but was super excited for the game, tournament and playing at home. Post interview analysis praised his scoring and work in the corners. The analysts referenced the GAG line and mentioned Canada's first line should be a two goal a game line all tournament.

Good chance by Chmelar.

Othmann with a breakaway, sprung by Bedard, but lost the puck off his stick before he could get the shot.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Othmann lmao

 

[GAGLine]

Goal by Chmelar negated because of a penalty. One of his teammates interfered with the goalie right before the goal.

He's looking pretty good out there.

 

[Kane One]

Jeez Othmann

Getting used to MSG ice.

It felt like I was watching the rangers

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Chmelar with Kakko's luck.

 

[duhmetreE]

Is this the 6'6 czech goalie?

 

[hackeyman]

My dad asked if Russia was banned.

Russia and Belarus banned and Russia removed from hosting in 2023.

Canada looks like the Rangers from 2 yers ago.

 

[GAGLine]

Chmelar with the PP goal!

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Damn son

 

[huerter]

what are the live odds?

Defense optional growing up in the Hughes household

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Othmann rings it off the inside of the post and it doesnt go in, ugh.

He’s already got Rongo DNA

 

[duhmetreE]

Bedard is the real deal...

I'd love for the Rangers to somehow miraculously make that pick to see how bad he would be here.
