[Bruce Granville]

Far too early to pull matto alta…

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Then goalie let's an easy one

No it wasn't. Not when it is an open shot from that close to the net.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

why is there always a Helenius on every Finnish team?

 

[noncents]

hagens gotta let it go son

 

[vildurson]

Too bad I wont have an excuse to go to sleep earlier in the game so far. Us Finns playing well.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Americans look almost surprised by the pace Finland is coming at them with.

 

[Monsieur Miz]

The gambling website in front of the Fins helmet is f***ing nasty.

Don't worry the US will have a push yet

Open shot. Nobody interrupted his eyesight.

 

[sadpanda]

Finland playing their best hockey tet

 

[TimeZone]

Finland is looking like the 4 to 1 favorite so far....

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Don't worry the US will have a push yet

You would hope so or it won't be much of a game lol

 

[vildurson]

Don't worry the US will have a push yet

We have had good starts before. Usually counter push comes end of first for opponents in this tourney. Game goes right as we want to play right now though. Heavy cycling game and physical game.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

USA looking like the Rongos rn

 

[king89]

Lol we are dominating

 

[22Brad Park]

You would hope so or it won't be much of a game lol

They need to start skating.

 

[SoundAndFury]

The gambling website in front of the Fins helmet is f***ing nasty.

What's nasty about it? Didn't even know it's a gambling website before you pointed it out.

 

[Hennessy]

USA is going to have PTSD by the first intermission the way this thing is going so far.

 

[FLAMESFAN]

Wow, Finland dominating there

 

[Blender]

Finland looks dominant so far but they might pay for not scoring more.

 

[chauron]

Why was USA so soft in the defensive zone

 

[22Brad Park]

Lol we are dominating

only 1st period

 

[MichaelFarrell]

Joke period so far from USA

 

[Huokaus]

Finns are looking great.

What's weird is that like 8 minutes in the Americans have dropped at least 3 sticks. Probably doesn't mean anything, just noticed it and feels like a lot.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Open shot. Nobody interrupted his eyesight.

From that close if the shot is hard enough and doesn't hit the goaltender it is likley a goal.
