Anyone on USA get hurt and will miss time? I couldn't watch

Brinkley got cut on the back of his leg above the knee and did not return to action after it happened. There have been no updates.

Coyle's a monster, stupid trade by San Jose

lolwut?

A hat trick against a clearly inferior Denmark team makes that a stupid trade by San Jose? 5-6 years before anyone can say who won that trade...

 

[F L Y E R S]

Watched most of the game, but man oh man was that guy annoying chanting " Let's Go Den-mark! U-S-A *****! " Said it over and over.....and over

The bottom two countries from each Pool A and Pool B go into the relegation round, you keep the points you earned against the country going to relegation with you, then you play the 2 countries from the other Pool. At the end of the round robin, the country with the lowest points is relegated to Division IA.

Example...
Latvia and Switzerland finish 4th and 5th in Pool A, Denmark and Czechs in Pool B. While in Preliminary Round round Swiss beats Latvia in overtime and Czech beat the Danes in regulation. So entering relegation the standings are this...
Czech...3pts
Swiss....2pts
Latvia....1pts
Danes...0pts

Latvia and Swiss would play each of Denmark and Czech Republic, whoever gains the lowest amounts of points is relegated down to Division IA, the remaning three countries keep their spots in Elite Division.

If you are asking how Germany is coming up, they wont he Division IA Championship earlier this month.
(I really hope this answer your question, sorry if my English was not so great.)

thanks!!

All three were stoppable pucks; that last one was just even more evidently bad.

The game is over and we played damn well. We're still going to need better goaltending against better teams if we want another Gold.

So the one that went off the post and right to a Denmark player who tapped it in was stoppable? Doh-kay.

Was out to dinner. Who were the best players for the US.

 

[Lux Aurumque*]

Despite the US' domination in this game, I really thought Nicklas Jensen was the best player on the ice. He was amazing.

I wasn't impressed with anyone on the American team in particular. Although, it must be said that the score would have been much more even if Denmark had a competent goalie.

I don't agree.. if the goalie(s) for Denmark didn't make some awesome saves and the usa's pk wasn't miserable with weak pressure, the score could have been even worse.

 

[Made Dan]

Coyle was probably our best player tonight. No one else really stuck out.

I agree with this. I thought Denmark played well.

 

[Canucks LB]

Do you guys think Jensen has a higher potential then hansen in vancouver?.

 

[Duodenum]

Do you guys think Jensen has a higher potential then hansen in vancouver?.

He's a first round pick with a far higher talent level soo yes.

What? I'm not sure if I should take your comment serious.

 

[BBSeabs27]

any box score for this game??

 

[SabresSharks]

That's the worst defensive play I've ever seen.

Always remember, kids - mods never troll. It's a contradiction in terms.

 

[SabresSharks]

lol @ canadians irrational hatred for USA

Just another example of Canadian hockey arrogance. USA and Russia shutting their yaps the last 2 years was so sweet. 3rd time will be the charm.

 

[SabresSharks]

That's was a dangerous hit.. classless cheering from a few in the crowd while he was down injured

Canadian WJC fans tend to act like the quintessential mite-dad jerk who gets shouted down by his own team's parents, except nobody shouts them down.

So screw up Faulk's development so he can "possibly" win a tournament. Ok.

I would say playing in a tournament with your country playing crucial minutes with your mates is far more crucial to a players development. Maybe not in the sense that he is playing weaker competition but this is the kind of tournament that instills a sense of pride and confidence in ones play that the Hurricanes can't provide.

Sure let lose 5 straight with the canes being a minus each game completely shattering his confidence OR let him battle for a Gold Medal with his countrymen which could possibly be the highlight of his career. I bet he is very mad

 

[JackMeyer]

Campbell looked shaky at times to me. And the puck movement has to improve. On another note, the heart of the Danes can't be questioned. Very impressed with Jensen tonight. I warn you guys now, Finland will be looking to avenge a shellacking at the hands of Canada, they will be extremely motivated to show that they belong in the tournament.

 

[JoeCool16]

I've gotta say, Denmark's goalie had one cool mask. I love how it looked from far up during broadcast.

 

[StIllmatic]

How did Jensen play? I see had an assist on all of Denmark's goals.

 

[metalan2]

Some of the worst goaltending I've ever seen.

 

[Robin Hood]

Good game by the Danes I think. The group stage really only is practice matches to us before the all important "final" against Latvia. The PP looks promising so far and that is going to be a key when facing Latvia.
