Keep it up guys. We need that goal differential.

The US were jetlagged in the first!

Amazing blowout, not a fan of some of Bylsmas decisions though

McD... you God

Edit: he pushed off the boards when he was laying on the ice to poke check the guy

Lol nice avy/sig dude.

Great opening game. McD may have been the best defenseman defensively that game. He made a few questionable decisions but he was playing very confidently.

Callahan and his line are a solid checking line. They had a ton of o-zone time.

Not too Canadian to pass up making a quick profit off of Americans.

If Callahan stays with Parise, Parise won't score a single goal all tournament.

Good showing from team USA. Thought Callahan made some of his patented dumb hockey player decisions.

McDonagh was an absolute MONSTER on Team USA's second goal. I think it was the second goal, it was the one that was started by McD dumping it into the zone. But before that dump in, he won the puck from TWO Slovakia fore-checkers, just so easy and slick. Damn.

I think I put the jynx on Slovenia. Started focusing on that game a little bit more when it was 3-2, and that's when Russia really turned it on. Still though, to have Russia be only +3 after a game against Slovenia, and the US +6 after Slovakia? That's a great thing, IMHO.

Saturday should be a lot of fun.

LET'S GO NORWAY!

Heck of an effort from the US. Amazing how much speed and skill this team has compared to past years.

Shattenkirk is really developing.

What? It's not Callahan's fault Parise fanned on two grade A chances.

I thought Callahan played quite well, actually, coming from someone who has been as hard on him as anyone this season.

Question regarding Nichushkin's goal in the Russia game.

I understand that the puck went in before the net came off, obviously. But he was very clearly in the crease before the puck went in the net, and I thought that was against international rules? Would someone be able to clarify the crease rules in international hockey?

 

[Doctyl]

My criticisms or DB

Cally played too much

Brown and Orpik shouldn't have made the team

Miller should be the starter

 

[The Gloaming]

Callahan was bad. McD was great. So just another day at the office.

How very American of them.

 

[KingStian]

Missed the USA game, but very ready for Norway in an hour and a half. Don´t have very high hopes for this one though. An Olympic Canada team shouldn´t have to much of a problem beating us.

I just hope Zucc has a good game and that it don´t turn into a ****ing blowout.

 

[ecemleafs]

McD was a beast today. Pretty much every player played well today.
