[1Timer]

[john g]

2-1

me and my big mouth about them showing up :lol

 

[Foppa]

Eeek...Russia scores on a longg one.

 

[pittengineer]

Russia needs a timeout.

or a goal

 

[Legionnaire]

2-1 Russia Softy let in by Montoya

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Montoya doing his best Tommy Salo.

 

[Steve Latin*]

Is Malkin even playing???

SWEET! Looks like he just got an assist.

S L

 

[Legionnaire]

Pull Montoya now.

Maybe I should elaborate. He's giving up huge rebounds, can't play the puck and let in a softy. Clearly he is not on his game, and when that happens it ain't good.

 

[Herby]

I hope Montoya doesn't pull a Fleury...follow up a big tourney one year by laying an egg the next.

 

[The Slap Shop]

Kessel looks good. He made a great move. That kid looks impressive so far.

 

[Steve Latin*]

Pull Montoya now.

 

[Slick Nick]

Did Russia have good scoring chances?

Kessel sure has shown me a lot. Seems to have a great skill set.

 

[john g]

Did Russia have good scoring chances?

not really, including the goal, just a few of harmless chances

 

[Lou is God]

Did Russia have good scoring chances?

Just really on their only goal, otherwise it's been all Team USA.

 

[Herby]

The Americans are dominating the Russians...

Honestly it could be 4 or 5-1

 

[pittengineer]

Goligoski with a good shot on net. US is playing hard down low.

 

[LazyCamel2000]

Whats Porter's and Lisin's #'s. Thanks yotes fan

 

[The Slap Shop]

Has anyone even sighted Schremp yet?

 

[Lou is God]

Man this poor Russian goalie, he's the only reason it's not worse.

 

[john g]

has the makings so far of a game one team dominates but the other team will win on a fluke or sick goal

 

[The Slap Shop]

Whats Porter's and Lisin's #'s. Thanks yotes fan

Porter is 21. Not sure about Lisin.

USA Roster

 

[john g]

Has anyone even sighted Schremp yet?

[pittengineer]

Has anyone even sighted Schremp yet?
