meazza Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 606421[/snapback] will it be another Canada vs USA final? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Holy keerist I didn't realize the Slovaks were that loaded. Hossa, Svatos, Demitra, Gaborik, Bartecko, etc. Thank god they're not still playing with the Czechs. Great first period. Both 'tenders look like crap which is pretty wierd for a scoreless game. Blisering pace at both ends and another example of why the NHL should contract about 8 teams. Americans seem to be having a little trouble getting on the same page, but they're hustling and that's good news. It might take a while to get everybody pulling in the same direction but aside from DiPietro fighting the puck I like what we're seeing so far.

beerme1 Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 aside from DiPietro fighting the puck I like what we're seeing so far. 606448[/snapback] I don't know about that. I just saw him make an amazing off balance, falling backwards save. And now, a great poke check move and then a breakaway save. What do you mean fighting the puck?

He looked like a totally different player in the 2nd than he did in the first though. So did Budaj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Another day, another game where the USA can't score. A loss to Slovakia and now impending doom against Sweden. There's no medal in the cards for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
