[Lafleurs Guy]

First game Marner has been noticeable 5 on 5.

Good for him.

Yeah he’s made a couple of nice plays

 

[Chainshot]

They need to regroup, whatever game plan this is won’t work

Not surprisingly, looks a bit like the Penguins for the last few years...

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

any updates on the live thread ?

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

Can Emily keep it 1 question for fsakes

Why stop there?

How about we stick Emily in the Zamboni garage, and replace her with Gritty from the Flyers?

 

[The Management]

Feel like the yanks will make an adjustment in the second period. Would be nice to pot one more before they do.

 

[Muffin]

Yeah they play defense you know their actual position

That’s not how modern hockey works anymore. It’s played as a 5 men unit.

 

[Fraser28]

Canada plays like the US has this period and it’s 3-0.

Who knows. 0 on the board against Binnington so far.

 

[Chainshot]

Slow-mo USA chant is weird

Might just be that cold? Like molasses.

 

[domiwroze]

at least 4 or 5 shots from US are dump ins that hit the net by accident lol

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Usa playing like the Habs

Can't connect a simple pass or get the puck when they dump it.

They could be wearing habs jersey and i wouldn't see the difference

 

[Fraser28]

the fact you ended the sentence with yet.

I mean I don’t think anyone expected a shutout from either side.

 

[periferal]

Americans are playing a really physical game that's going nowhere. Focus and attack boys.

Are they really being that physical? More like sloppy.

 

[Felidae]

Anyways I expect USA to score at some point. The difference in composure between Helle and Binnington this period alone is evident

Edit: Case in point.

 

[Strangle]

American hockey fans just don’t have it

It’s their first time, they’ll figure it out

 

[BlueSeal]

Youuu.... Essss.... Aayyyy.... hilarious!

Canada should step it up and go ham this period.

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

Sainheim should not be on team Canada.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Yuck

 

[6ix]

Brady ties it up

 

[Kane One]

Brady!!!

 

[bud12]

B.Tkatchuk have a really poor 1st and just score out of nowhere

 

[Cody Webster]

Brady!!!!!!!

 

[rainier]

BRADY

 

[Strangle]

Never fear, the U.S. has the bestest coach in all of hockey!

All torts could come u with was “everyone fight and then we win, right?”

 

[Vilam]

USA USA USA USA!!! BRADY!

 

[Chainshot]

Tied.
