Slovak player pulled a Burrows and made sure to fall into the goalie after the cross check
 
Aside from like a two minute stretch there, just not a lot going on the US offensively. If the power play doesn't improve, they'll regret not taking a guy like Reilly Walsh.

Slovakia fully deserving of their lead.

Have not been impressed at all with the US.
 
That doesnt really mean anything. China has 1.5 billion people, but no one cares about hockey. Hockey is USA's 4th most popular major sport. Besides, USA is objectively a better hockey country.
5th, unless you think more kids play hockey than soccer.
 
This US team isn't that good. Might sound harsh, but we have a lack of good wingers. Coaches took the mediocre older players instead of the draft-eligible players who could've helped here. Finland takes Kakko, Russia takes Podkolzin, we take NCAA grinders instead of Turcotte, Zegras, Kaliyev, Boldy, Caufield. Goaltending decision was questionable. We left our two best right-shots at home.

Not a good team. I think we could medal, but I doubt we are good enough to win gold.
 
He gave him a decent shove into his goalie. Why would you shove someone towards your netminder? Just dumb.

If you shove me towards your goalie, I’m definitely going to hit him. Don’t like it? Don’t push a player into your goalie. Simple.

Always hate when defensemen do that.
 
Theres no chemistry for team USA ...which is weird because many of them have played with each other on the development program.
