Group A • Dec. 31 • Canada vs. USA - Part II

[X66]

There was also a hook on the Nurse breakaway but no call, they even out.

USA is very lucky the game is still in reach

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

It was on a follow through.

IIHF its a penalty.

 

[Richter915]

larkin and milano are so fast

 

[hoc123]

I didn't like it when Morrisey was picked by Winnipeg. He's proved me wrong ever since

 

[Evil Doctor]

Most goals are off rebounds not sure what your getting at

Which is why you want a goaltender that doesn't give up a ton of rebounds, unlike say Demko...

 

[RickyR]

Goals aside, US totally dominated this period.

Outside of Eichel, the forwards on this team are pedestrian.

eichel has done nothing

 

[trilobyte]

It was on a follow through.

Yes, I realize that. Intent is not considered, the result is.

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

They're a bunch of kids playing for their country. I would probably celebrate so hard if I ever had got a goal in this tournament.

Oh yeah of course. I don't mind it, their kids let them have fun.

 

[Habsawce]

Whoops, my bad. Wasn't 2 many men

 

[NewBoysClub97*]

Domi and to a lesser extent Nurse is what players look like when they are 100% confident and have their mojo going.

If I didn;t know anything about the players previously in this tournament, I would think Domi is the McDavid of this draft.

 

[Machinehead]

Not surprised at undisciplined penalty from Duclair, he's been asking for it since before the opening faceoff.

Krieder probably taught him how to do that. Our apologies.

 

[Beaunett]

Outside of Eichel, the forwards on this team are pedestrian.

Eichel's pedestrian as well.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

There you go, USA. Your chance at the PP.

 

[Richter915]

Which is why you want a goaltender that doesn't give up a ton of rebounds, unlike say Demko...

lol, ok.

 

[GlassesJacketShirt]

Too fancy now. Keep it simple, boys!

Lazar gets his stick slashed in a prime scoring area. No call. US now to the PP. This is how officiating works in the IIHF. You call penalties according to the game, apparently.

To be fair, that also describes the NHL playoffs.

 

[landy92mack29]

Goals aside, US totally dominated this period.

no they havent

 

[SabresSharks]

Chance for US to get back into this. Canada has been dominating this period.

I am not seeing the hype for mcdavid

Well McDavid is just getting over an injury - (fractured bone in his right hand)

[Virtanen2Horvat]

Glad Demko is trying to keep the team in the game. I hope Virtanen can capitalize though.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Smart play by Demko knowing he wasn't on the ice yet

 

[LiquidSnake]

I am not seeing the hype for mcdavid

Maybe watch more games than just the WJC then

 

[Hisch13r]

2-1.

 

[LeafsMonster]

Ah crap

 

[Craz1bo1]

Lol they had Comrie swimming
