PLD with 1G2A in second game. (Everyone got a goal there)

Bjorkstrand just put Denmark up 2-1 over Finland in the 2nd period with a snipe.

And Cam was awesome today. Player of the game for the US

And Cam was awesome today. Player of the game for the US

Did they say to each other "see you in september?"

7PP for USA, Elvis allowed 1 goal on 5:3 in reg, and 1 softie on 5hole on 5x5, and PP goal in OT. Most of the 3rd period latvians spent in their own end.

He wasn't on the scoresheet, but Texier was named best player for France in their loss today.

I like the fire but he'll need to reign that in if he ever comes over.

Meh its not like he threw his team under the bus to the media or something. Team needs some personality and some fire, its not the perfect thing to do but its not the worst thing in the world either

Gimme.

Showing Cam some love.

3 assists for Texier today. I didn't watch but one comment from the tournament board said "he is definitely going to be an NHL-er".

 

[Maylo]

Texier with 3 primary assists in 5:2 win over Austria.

 

[Cowumbus]

Is there any way he makes CBJ next year like PLD, or is he going to be in Liiga regardless?

 

[Maylo]

If MAdden is still in Cleveland he should avoid that place at any cost. He will have a Dev camp this year. Will stay in Liiga for another year at least.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

I would agree he should play 1st line minutes in Europe next year unless he blows the doors off at camp.

ETA 2019-2020.

 

[hardkorejackets]

Here's a gorgeous pass that Texier had for an assist.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

here's the full version, he has a move right before that drop pass that is almost as nice.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

This is more impressive than the first goal........hard work, board battle, wins a foot race, huge deke, stick handle in tight and then the power move. OOF.

Elvis made 33 saves to beat Draizaitl and Team Germany 3:1.

 

[Maylo]

Tonight Team Canada vs Team Finland. Nuti vs "my dream boy" Murray.

Btw, imagine if we would have drafted Aho over Carlsson and Pasta over Milano. Oh boy. Sigh....

Imagine if they drafted Puljujärvi instead of PLD or Crouse instead of Werenski.

 

[Maylo]

Imagine if they drafted Puljujärvi instead of PLD or Crouse instead of Werenski.

So regarding forwards, only PLD was a hit, and that's it..
