I expect USA to do really well against China, that's one game their roster construction might actually benefit them.

NCAA vs KHL

Should be an interesting one.

What channel is this on in the US?

USA in the states.

Shouldn't be close, but you never know.

Hope we win by 4-5 goals at the least.

Ok thanks. I looked on the official website and it has an NBC icon next to it, not USA.

NCAA vs KHL

Should be an interesting one.

Well, the worst team in the KHL against some top NCAA players supported by some solid Euro-league players (among them a PPG player in the KHL). Don't think you can really make some kind of NCAA vs KHL comparisons based on this.

They have skiing on USA, any other options?

The game hasn't started.

It starts after skiing.

Find a cbc stream online somehow. They have every event with English commentary

Strangest things have happened before, you just never know.

Let's go Brandon.

Let's go Brandon.

Please keep the politics out of it.

NBC has done a horrible job of notifying fans which network affiliate the game would be on.

These USA jerseys are slick.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Shake it off Faber.

These USA jerseys are slick.

Much better than previous years.

China looking more complete than I assumed they would.

Canada already up 1-0 on Germany in the other game on now.

 

[metalan2]

Why aren't they using Olympic ice?

 

[metalan2]

The announcers are like "for 32nd in iihf rankings china looks even." But they're using American and Canadian players that play for the second best league in the world lol

 

[John Price]

China came to play

 

[John Price]

Scar USA!

 

[Eco]

There we go. Well done Brisson!
