I'll admit I questioned the Oshie pick because of his playoff no shows and defensive shortcomings, but the fact that you can use the same shooter really does make him a must bring to this tournament. Happy to admit I was wrong on this one.

Voynov on Quick dislodging the net before the Tyutin disallowed goal: "I play with him. I know that's his style." #USAvRUS

:laugh:
 
I'm voting Oshie for President in 2016. **** rules. He's my candidate. He's the PEOPLE'S candidate.

Why would Quick knock it off on that shot? Why wouldn't he just make the save? There was no traffic in front of him. No immediate pressure.

I'd like to hear Voynov's explanation. We know how things can be in Russia. He may not have said anything like that.
 
God, Slava, way to be a dick :laugh:

But I'd like to see if he said anything else before judging. Maybe he didn't mean it like that.
 
They are taking Slava out of context, he simply said that ' that type of play happens with the way Quick plays' .

There is nothing in that comment. Its media trying to stir stuff up.
 
Just woke up and saw the score. Obviously, I'm delighted. :D

You would think with Russia's skill they'd have the advantage in the shootout, but it sounds like Quick came up big.
 
Alright guys, I'm emotionally drained after that game. See you tomorrow morning. :laugh:

That's the way I read it. And it's true. quick throws himself from position to position. It's not an issue just shows the limits of twitter.
 
Both teams. I'm just upset because the US shouldn't have won that. They got outplayed.

During stretches, yes. But it's not like the US was being dominated from the very beginning.

Anyways, I'm real disappointed in Brownie. Everything was going so well with him and then he takes a real dumb penalty that let Russia back into the game. If he barely plays against Slovenia tomorrow, then I totally understand the decision.

Russia outplayed the US 60-40.

And I am not disappointed in him. He's done good, got the US a goal, and he has one goal. Sure he took a stupid penalty, but wheeler hasn't done ****, neither has golden boy parise. The amount of *****ing about brown is unwarranted.

Well the shootout did go 8 rounds. Wow, that Datsyuk. After the 3 different shooters for the 1st 3 rounds, it was all Oshie. Datsyuk and Kovalchuk in the later rounds for Russia. Credit to Bylsma for putting it all on Oshie. 4 goals out of 6 shots. Oshie said he was almost out of shots.

(CNS, had a good laugh at your post.)

ETA: Love Backes jumping up and down after the win.
