GDT: Cesko vs USA, Dec 29, 11am EST

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

maybe i saw it wrong but it looked like it was a sharp angle

Kinda was. Had to protect short side, which left the top corner and the Czechia player hit it perfectly.

14 for Czechia got lazy and didn't stay with Smith.

Gorgeous goal.. great setup.

Game is half done and it's tied. We are getting chances.

Happy. Playing our underdog role well.

 

[lecherous]

Has anyone ever seen Will Smith show any emotion at all? He's been completely expressionless every time I've seen him.

Mcgroarty-Gauthier-Snuggerud line has been awful

 

[Czechboy]

Personally, I don't fault the US goalie.. that was a snipe and a half from in close on a lucky bounce.

Same with Rinzel, Buium

Personally, I don't fault the US goalie.. that was a snipe and a half from in close on a lucky bounce.

yeah, after that view no, also screened.

 

[czechcanadian]

Nice response from Czechs again after being scored on. Hemming Americans in multiple times.

 

[Czechboy]

To the eye test.. this period has been pretty even.

 

[hockey20000]

usa is not the big favorites everyone making them out to be (tsn)

 

[tictactoe]

3:2

 

[TimeZone]

The Americans cannot defend the rush at all, this is f***ing ugly.

 

[TLEH]

Fortescue falls down and its 3-2

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Ugh, play some defense please!

 

[czechcanadian]

Wow did not expect this. Win or lose I’m happy with this performance

 

[Czechboy]

czechcanadian fav.. Sapousek!!!

Nice pick off by the Czech D and Sale doing exactly what he does best.. elite passing!

I think Sapousek whiffed and got lucky but what a goal.

All 3 of our goals have been skill goals... not shots from the point hitting a skate and such or scrambles. They've all been beauts. That is nice too.

All I want is a tie going into the third and a punchers chance.

And it was Melovsky with the pick.. he knocked that dead out of the air and fed Sale.

 

[WreckingCrew]

Yea, I don't even know if the US will make it to the medal games at this point, they've looked awful even in wins

 

[vlady]

This has been a very fun game to watch

 

[Czechboy]

Wow did not expect this. Win or lose I’m happy with this performance

Exactly this.. our Quarter will be an opponent like this and we need to keep this kind of game up for 3 periods. It's encouraging that we have this gear. Win or lose this is much better than our previous 2 games.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

The states have a lot of d that can't play d.

Feel bad for Fowler. Didn't see the 1st goal, but the last two hasn't had much of a chance.

Czechia playing some strong defensive play.

 

[Panthaz89]

Yea, I don't even know if the US will make it to the medal games at this point, they've looked awful even in wins

they will definitely medal with their offense.

 

[TLEH]

Hutson finally does what we need him to do.

 

[vlady]

and the fireworks continue. great game indeed

 

[Czechboy]

What a shot.. wow... nice feed to Chesley who destroyed it.lol

Czech D was clueless to Chesley.. all with their backs turned. Chesley saw a few sweater numbers and a lot of ice on a perfect feed. Gorgeous play.

3-3

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Hutson with the nice feed from behind the net to the other d.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Nice, Chesley pounds one home to tie it up!
