My god, most of these penalties are legit but let them play already.
I THINK the U.S. is +3 in the penalty department. Let's call it even and just let them play.My god, most of these penalties are legit but let them play already.
Man, I'm certain if they put some pads on a position player they wouldn't be as bad as the goaltending we've gotten in this tournament.Make a f***ing good save. Just one. Please. Every single good chance goes in. That wasn’t even a good shot.
10 minutes of minor penalties in 15 minutes of play.
If the penalty fest continues - both sides, I'm not going to watch. I'll just go for a walk / swim. Life's too short to watch a game like this.Make a f***ing good save. Just one. Please. Every single good chance goes in. That wasn’t even a good shot.

He's stopped a SH breakaway and a one timer from the slot by Zellers just in the last 5 minutes. Both goals were perfectly placed shots from the US' best shooters with time and space in the slot, there isn't a goalie in the world at this age making those saves consistently.Man, I'm certain if they put some pads on a position player they wouldn't be as bad as the goaltending we've gotten in this tournament.

Don't worry, my friend, you are good.Czechs come out flying and dominate the period.
BUT Finn's never die.. score late on a gorgeous shot and 1 goal game.
Not surprised at all by this of course... We lose to Finland in 2 ways...
We outplay them but they get timely goals.
They outplay us and we lose.
So 2-1 and I am far from comfortable.
Ftr... Now in Colorado watching.. third state ive watched a game in.. Utah, Wyoming and now Colorado
TSN clock was like 10 seconds off there, thought USA would get that off
This tournament is poorly run.TSN clock was like 10 seconds off there, thought USA would get that off
I like Finn hockey... Big fan. They bend but don't break. Plus sold out arena and a bunch of emotional Czech kids. This is going to be a shitshow!Don't worry, my friend, you are good.
It has been a penalty fest in period one - 7 or 8 in total.I like Finn hockey... Big fan. They bend but don't break. Plus sold out arena and a bunch of emotional Czech kids. This is going to be a shitshow!
2-1 US? How does it look over there?
I have been watching this age level of hockey for my entire life, even in the NHL, those opportunities would have been classified as very high danger, literally a breakaway and a wide open shot from the slot after a behind the net, cross crease pass where he has time to dust it off. Zeller catches the goalie on his push leg with his shot timing, and Connelly goes perfectly over the blocker against the grain.We have very different definitions of perfectly placed shots. Those were both awful goals that should be saved. I've been watching this tournament for well over a decade there are certainly goalies at this level that can make those saves.
Come on dude. That first goal was horrendous at any level of hockey. Maybe watch it again:I have been watching this age level of hockey for my entire life, even in the NHL, those opportunities would have been classified as very high danger, literally a breakaway and a wide open shot from the slot after a behind the net, cross crease pass where he has time to dust it off.
