I've already planned to get up early and get to the library to write my essay so I can be back by the start of this game, that is how excited I am. So nah, I wouldn't say 23 hours in advance is too early :)
 
Hmmmmm i think the US will pay a very hard game. Im going with 4:3 USA.

How should I pronounce Budaj?
budai/boodai/budei

best game of the day, or maybe czech vs finns is better.

how can us handle slovaks speed? probably can't.

if slovakian goalies are solid, i say us loses badly.

but i expect many goals. 6-4 slovaks.

whoever starts in net has to wear Dipietro's pads

No kidding, those things are great. Do you think he's going to play? I can't decide who I think will start.

Not gonna lie, this game scares the crap out of me. :joker: I just hope the US plays a good solid game, whatever happens happens. I just want them to play hard.

Hey, Marian wears 81 and has M. HOSSA on the back, right? Is he also a C or A? I forgot.

I'm not a fan so I don't know lol. But from pictures I've seen the name is right but I don't see a C or A.
 
I think the US will need to come out strong and establish a physical tone to the game early. Make the Slovakian forwards pay for trying to carry the puck in and forechecking hard to wear down some of the smaller defensemen. Don't try to get too fancy, play a straight forward simple game.

Either way though, we'll need some big saves from whoever gets the nod in net, as there's a good chance this game will come down to goaltending.

On this team, that M. doesn't really narrow it down much as to which Hossa he is.
