GDT: Playoff round - February 20 - USA vs Slovakia

[AmericanDream]

great work by Greenway behind the net to set that up for Bourque...keep it up guys, just keep on grinding it out

 

[Faterson]

First period over, 0-0. Pretty even so far, I'd say, with more offensive presence for the US overall, but nothing significant.

Slovaks often struggle in "long change" 2nd periods. Hopefully that is not the case today.

Slovakia's face-off performance improved a bit compared to the first game, I think. That was a key letdown for them in the first game and a major reason for their defeat.

 

[Faterson]

Shots on goal 9-7 for Slovakia, face-off wins 10-8 for the US:

[AmericanDream]

HAHAHAHAH, first Terry missed it then my boy Donato finishes it home!

 

[AmericanDream]

And there’s Donato again.

this team wins on the kids, simple as that...

really a head scratcher why we didn't have a few more here like Gaudette, Brickley, Bellows, etc ..

 

[AmericanDream]

2 penalties on the Slovaks...and shit Donato is hurt

 

[94wasagoodyear]

Good thing we brought Donato

 

[AmericanDream]

this could be the game here, 5 on 3???? what a shitty elbow

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Deserves that match penalty.

 

[DEVILS130]

That was a horrible elbow. You don’t see stuff like that often in the Olympics

 

[AmericanDream]

full 2 minutes of 5 on 3, have to score here...

 

[BMOK33]

full 2 minutes of 5 on 3, have to score here...

Especially if the backup goalie is coming in

 

[AmericanDream]

hope Zap is okay

 

[Teemu]

LOL well that was fast

 

[AmericanDream]

Especially if the backup goalie is coming in

yep, that was a close one..

 

[Faterson]

What a collapse by Slovakia right in the opening minutes of the 2nd period, on many levels. 0-2 after only 2 minutes and 20 seconds. I guess that's it, goodbye, Korea!

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Wiz with a freakin blast!

 

[AmericanDream]

BOOM!!!! TOLD YA WISNIEWSKI!!!

 

[Cody Webster]

That's why you don't play one goalie every single game. Let the other guy get a game in during pool play

Scarrrrr!!!

 

[AmericanDream]

Wiz with a freakin blast!

Thats why he is playing right guys?? lol

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

[DEVILS130]
