GDT: United States vs. Sweden 5:05PM Torino; 11:05AM Eastern

[Melrose_Jr.]

Another 5 on 3 for the US. Get ready DP.

NHL refs =>

 

[DownFromNJ]

Gionta draws a penalty.

 

[Luno]

USA on the two man advantage for just under two minutes. We got some really nice chances last time, hope we can convert on this one.

 

[Freudian]

If Holmström was diving according to the ref, exactly what did Gionta do there?

Get clearly and unquestionably hooked?

 

[Crossroads*]

I wonder how many chances the refs are going to give the U.S. to win the game? Pathetic.

 

[calgarylen13]

Referee to linesman before game started
'oh but America might not make the playoffs if we don't let them win...we gotta give lots of 5 on 3's tonight'...sad thing, they still are yet to convert

 

[mr gib]

awesome game - despite flames fan

 

[Chimpradamus]

The Canadian ref clearly favours some transatlantic team.

 

[MartinFr]

hahahahaha

Are you even watching the game?

Ronnie Sundin knees Eric Cole-total cheapshot-he gets only two minutes

US gets a scoring chance, Backman pushes the net off on purpose-No Call

But god forbid Doug Weight's helmet fall off...

 

[MrAlfie]

quick!... they are giving out hooking calls for free.... get your own hooking call NOW! (will ship worldwide)

 

[MartinFr]

2e for Lundqvist

I know

GO SVERIGE! (THE MIGHTY YOGS!)

 

[DownFromNJ]

Lundqvist is insane.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Lundqvist! Now he's warm. Beware.

 

[Jori]

It's the Lundqvist show.

 

[John Flyers Fan]

Rafalsi needs to be out there more, especially on the PP.

Brtual PP by the US.

 

[Gags1288]

Absolutely pathetic from the U.S team. Why wasn't Weight out their on the first unit, he's by far the best passer on this team. This has to be the worst 5 on 3 i've ever seen and that includes some pretty terrible NHL PP's.

 

[acr*]

The second long 5-on-3 we blew...ugghh...they're not even testing Lundqvist

 

[cbj21]

its strange that after 20 years playing hockey some players still havent learned how to "attach" a helmet properly

 

[Freudian]

I think Bäckman is happy Ronnie Sundin joined the team, he is now the second crappiest player on D.

 

[sabresrat]

I've been working, but I assume Cole was getting heavy time on the PP instead of Drury, Tkachuk, and Weight?

North Americans don't need helmets as much since they don't hit the ice every time a stick comes near them.
