Have liked our speed and tenacity in the first.

Sweden tremendous speed in transition and really pressuring our D

Big 2nd period coming up. Go Canada!!

 

[snipes]

Quenneville or one of the Dmen needs to lower the boom on one those forwards.

 

[jj cale]

Canada needs to wake up.

Sweden is working them hard.

 

[snipes]

Nice goal by Sweden. Step it up here boys!!

2-1 Sweden

 

[snipes]

Damnit hit the post for Canada.

 

[leaflover]

Canada better pull up their socks. Swedes are taking the game over.

McLeod's looking good

 

[jj cale]

Far better work here the last few minutes.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

McLeod doing everything but score. Which kind of is the story for him.

 

[snipes]

Canada controlling the play now.

 

[VictorLustig]

Tilander has been brutal this period

 

[jj cale]

After a tough week, coming home pretty drunk at 2 am to watch Canada - Sweden and St Louis - Chicago is amazing. No need to complain

Best of all worlds.

Always good to watch the greatest sport on earth after a tough week.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

this is US hockey's most important tournament more important than any other event.

Dead wrong, the U18 tournament is not the most imortant to USA hockey.

Is it confirmed his wrist is broken yet?

Nope, just fine for the Gold Medal game. Hyberbol can stop on the playground can stop now.

i bet you are yankee too, stay classy

Yankee ?

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

The Q!

Tied. Kyrou getting love from Button and deservedly so on that. McLeod with the nice assist too.

 

[jj cale]

Yeah!!

Quennville.

Love that Kyrou kid. He's been great all game.

 

[snipes]

Woo!!!!

2-2

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Quenneville's got a helluva shot, and McLeod gets an assist.

I've liked Mcleod today, he has given them problems with his speed.

 

[jj cale]

And sweden responds.

That really should have been cleared.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Ugly d-zone play.

 

[snipes]

ugh

3-2 Sweden

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Probably the first shift in a long time that Jost's line gets outplayed.
Certainly a better game to watch than the Fin-USA one
