holy glove save Husso

Looks like there might be another Finnish goalie making a name for himself at this tourney. Finns, as usual, very tough.

 

[BobDobolina]

This PP setup sucks balls.

 

[7even]

Eichel is a dirty boy.

 

[Zaddy]

If I were the US coach I'd take Eichel off that PP.

Nevermind he took himself off it

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Another quick whistle.

 

[Richter915]

Wtf was Eichel doing there? Such a bad angle shot that it wasn't even worth it.

that might fly against north american goaltenders in the USHL...not against scandanavian guys tho

 

[LiquidSnake]

Find it hilarious with some Canadian fans ripping Eichel.

Dude is going to be a stud. And you'll be buying his jersey if he wears your teams' sweater

good composure eichel

 

[IHaveNoCreativity]

Eichel looking good out there in my 3 minutes of watching.

 

[Dolemite]

This is a poorly architected power play by the U.S. they gotta take the puck down low.

 

[WaltWhitman]

pp too predictable.

 

[McMozesmadness]

Eichels a brat. Good for Honka.

 

[Novak Djokovic]

Too much on the outside.

 

[Synergy27]

I don't understand the team USA PP positioning. Eichel just kind of hanging out near the blueline, not moving, not making himself available. Really weird setup.

 

[Fabs]

shouldn't be penalty. **** call as usually

Right. He only grabbed the back of the US players jersey. Perfectly legit call.

 

[realgoodleafs]

Eichel's hot dogging isn't doing much

 

[MTrangers]

Why is Eichel obsessed with playing on his non one-time side on the PP? It's frustrating.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

If I were the US coach I'd take Eichel off that PP.

He took himself off.

 

[Plub]

Eichel doesn't look like a generational talent to me. Wasn't he suppose to have 4 points a game this tournament?

Really? He controls the play whenever he wants. More so than anyone else on the ice by quite a bit. He was great in the first. I haven't cought much of period two or three, though.

I mean, I get that there will be people who bash on him for one reason or another, but he has shown his insane talent in this game. What he could be doing better, along with the rest of team USA, is moving the puck around a bit more. But as far as talent, no one by McDavid has looked as skilled.

And as I write this the PP looks horrible and Eichel out of position. Oh well, I'm not editing it.

 

[SmokeyDuck]

Eichel is going to be balder than getzlaf

 

[McMozesmadness]

No one is ripping his skill. He looks amazing. Attitude wise TODAY, he hasn't been good. It's one game.

 

[Novak Djokovic]

Matthews to the box... again.

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

good composure eichel

Pretty dumb instigating roughing on the PP. Lucky they both went for minors.

 

[hirawl]

Kappy goal coming up.
