The game in the prelims was 50/50. Germany has a very good team for this tournament. I hope the U.S. sticks to its identity of strong skating/puck moving and aggressive on the forecheck. Need a full 60 minute effort here.
 
Germany is on a heater, that JJ Peterka fella is pretty good at hockey. So is the rest of their team. The days of Germany being a pushover at this tournament are over for the most part.

I’m looking forward to seeing how Samberg plays c;

only 21 meetings in 80+ editions? That is surprisingly low. I'm guessing this doesn't count games against West/East Germany.
 
USA's Achilles heel. 0-11 in the Semifinals since the switch to the current format. This team has played well, but we will see if they can break the drought.
