[MTU34]

f***ing hell Howard shoot the damn puck

 

[AyeBah]

If you took a shot everytime Starman said "greasepan" you might be dead by now

 

[tictactoe]

This game is so stressful, either the US team is going to get shut out or we're going to win like 6-3. Just need to get that first one.

really? no other option?

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Helenius with the worst pass ever

 

[TLEH]

f***ing Howard.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Just can’t get used to the US wearing SKA jerseys.

 

[AZviaNJ]

Howard being too cute

 

[Reddawg]

really? no other option?

The word "like" allows for infinite alternatives

 

[LaMasquerade]

Helenius with the worst pass ever

Yep.. was playing well until that..

shots on goal in this period 5-0

 

[TLEH]

Too many men

 

[My3Sons]

So he's somewhere between Torey Krug and Marc Andre Bergeron?

I think he's better offensively than both but I don't know if he will develop defensively like Krug. We will see. That's years away to worry about. I'm not going to dump on a teenager because I root for one team or the other. I wish all these kids well and hope they all achieve their potential.

 

[Canucks LB]

Will Smith with the ultimate disappointing tournament holy shit.

True, but all it takes is a couple of big goals, in a couple big games, and nobody will care

 

[Jason MacIsaac]

Who made the stretch pass earlier in the period for USA, these jerseys are terrible

 

[TLEH]

True, but all it takes is a couple of big goals, in a couple big games, and nobody will care

Yeah. I agree.

 

[tictactoe]

The word "like" allows for infinite alternatives

You said SO or win 6:3... and I am asking are thoses the only options? Finlad cannot win 3:2 or 5:1?

How about a SO win.. or OT win?

 

[MTU34]

Think there’s been one good one from each of Casey and Hutson

 

[Jussi]

Well now we know the reason for the change in performances: Leijonat - "Simppeliä ja tylyä lätkää, silloin te olette vahvoilla" – Jukka Jalonen vieraili Nuorten Leijonien pukukopissa

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

ewwwwww Hutson

 

[End on a Hinote]

Kokko standing on his head!

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Hutson having a much better period. We need more from him.

 

[tictactoe]

Kooko is not Kaka today (so far at least)

 

[TimeZone]

Upsets are fun and all and I know Finland has beaten Sweden in the preliminary round...but the Americans look so, so much better right now.

It would be a shame not to get USA/Sweden for gold when I feel they're by far the two best teams

 

[jj cale]

Finland starting to feel the heat.

 

[MTU34]

Kokko is standing on his head right now. Really need to solve him soon

 

[sansabri]

Kokko is a wall
