France are just unable to handle the US one on one... They also collapse their 5 man unit to the paint in their own zone which is going to make it tough for a slower team to breakout... They should be better than this..

I forgot to mention how much I'm liking Drew O'Connor.. I have to imagine he makes a jump with the Pens...

Is Bonino injured or just a maintenance day since they play Sweden tomorrow?

 

[PanniniClaus]

Perunovich... ridiculous..

[WarriorofTime]

Gauthier will be a good pro

Maintenance was what I read.

 

[PanniniClaus]

The USA are a contender here... France... awful..

 

[WarriorofTime]

The rout is on.

French seems to uniquely match up poorly with this particular USA team. Lots of size but the skating edge is massive.

I think it's rest. They might be knicked up.

 

[FrHockeyFan]

Apparently the French team has a few cases of gastroenteritis so that could explain their form... they are probably also running out of steam after their first 4 games.

Their main objective to stay up has already been attained. I was more doubtful of their second of passing Norway in the ranking to gain home advantage for the OGQ.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Should have given Commesso the third period.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

No goal...jeez refs let them go in peace. They helped the US during the revolution.
