GDT: USA (3) vs. Switzerland (2) • Quarterfinals • Jan. 2

[Hinterland]

Lol. Why is Burren still on the PP?

 

[Fantomas]

If Hischier doesn't go #3, does Button get fired?

 

[TheBeastCoast]

US with an awful 2nd period.

 

[Hinterland]

As always, Switzerland dominant in the 2nd period. Usually we would be tired in the 3rd. But Thürkauf coming back might be able to spark the team.

 

[guitarhunterdude]

Kunin whiffing on shots, missing passes... collapsing when it matters along with the rest of the team right now. A captain needs to be better than that.

(side note: he should fit right in with the Wild)

 

[perrygetz1*]

USA-2 ref-1 after 2 periods.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

USA-2 ref-1 after 2 periods.

Give it up The first US goal was a direct result of a blatant missed call.

 

[The Noot]

USA-2 ref-1 after 2 periods.

calm down

the sole reason why the 1-0 even happened was the refs being morons as well

 

[Hinterland]

USA-2 ref-1 after 2 periods.

Lol. You noticed that you got away with 2 in the 1st period and that you got gifted a PP after your whining because of the Thürkauf hit on Fitzgerald?

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

Losing the new year's eve game was a blessing.

The US has this game, and a rematch against Russia if they escape this, always tough playing an opponent twice in a tournament.

 

[Novak Djokovic]

Haven't seen the game, but US has like 9 shots in two periods. What's going on?

 

[duga]

Monster period by the Swiss. Probably one of the best, they have played on this level.
What a shift by Siegenthaler to finish the period.

Classical Hischier, has a heavy collision with the goalpost in the first, and instead of softening up, plays an outstanding second.

 

[Fantomas]

Haven't seen the game, but US has like 9 shots in two periods. What's going on?

It's not the group stage.

 

[chis]

That goal by Hischier was beautiful, damn.

 

[Hinterland]

Thank you very much. The US returning the favour and also take a few stupid penalties now..

 

[rynryn]

Man I love those Lindt truffles.

 

[Hinterland]

Yay. The Captain is back

 

[Hinterland]

Man I love those Lindt truffles.

Haha. We also love them...but they're too expensive here in Switzerland...

 

[Fantomas]

Is Lindt chocolate something other than disgusting in Switzerland?

 

[Hinterland]

Finally a good shift by Burren. Maybe the first one of the tournament^^

 

[airbus1094]

Lol, Russian commentators, the US plays better defense on the PK than 5v5.

 

[rynryn]

What's wrong with you?!

US was looking better...then another penalty

 

[c9gunner]

another offensive zone penalty

 

[Hinterland]

Thank you very much. The US returning the favour and also take a few stupid penalties now..

Haha. And yet another offensive zone penalty. Very generous...

 

[Canada4Gold]

Important PP here for the Swiss
