[Ilyeu]

[AmericanDream]

Hunwick with the save!!

 

[AmericanDream]

Consolation: Hearing Pony on the soundtrack

hahaha liked that as well

 

[Atas2000]

boy are these refs really pulling it for Russia with these bs calls...hahaha this is brutal

ok, I could have guessed this excuse will come.

 

[Hanji]

We got destroyed that 3rd period. Jesus.

Overall good effort though. Way to hang in there.

The cold war is over, 'Merica won! So whats with the hate on Russia?

 

[Atas2000]

Where is Kuznetsov?and next time Nikitin should get an invite.

With what Kuznetsov has shown in the KHL playoffs and pre-tournament EHT games he really hasn't necessarilly earned a spot. And Nikitin is injured.

 

[kp61c]

well, the third period was like a walk in the park for us. good game.

 

[Howboutthempanthers]

GG Russia.

 

[ViD]

Tough game, as always against an NA team, but we prevailed as expected.

sore loser is a sore loser, he didn't even have faith in his team. Canada use to send scrubs, and I would still cheer for them and they would win occasional gold.

The things I would do to get Radulov on the Devils

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Overall better effort today, they at least looked ready to go from the start. Russia has too much talent for this US team, too bad Tim Thomas isn't using this as his showcase event, which I thought he would, Bishop cannot steal a game like this.

 

[member 116861]

Good effort by Team Avalanche.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

I thought you were going to smoke those AHL players? Won pretty handily but just curious what you think now, either the AHL is a heck of a lot better than you think or the KHL is um.....

 

[Hesher]

The things I would do to get Radulov on the Devils

Kovy should convince him. They look awesome together.

 

[WALLY Spartak Moscow]

This is going to be ugly. Russia is going to be a wake up call tomorrow on how this team has been playing. They cannot wait to get punched in the mouth before responding or they are likely to get knocked out tomorrow/today.

applause )

I didn't say we would smoke them, I said we were expected to win this game. Which we did.

 

[dimi19]

mmmmmmmmmmmmdaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

 

[lakai17]

I expected the score to be 8-1 with all these superstar Russia forwards..

Still came out with the W, The Russians always come out to play in the medal round.

 

[kiluj]

Great game.

 

[Peter25]

The things I would do to get Radulov on the Devils

Nah, get Kovy to CSKA instead.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

What was the final score???

 

[markz*]

Man, you have to give it to the Americans - they were diving almost as much as Canada has, begging for Power-plays.

 

[MaxV]

What was the final score???

5-3 Russia.

I really hope Varly starts in the next game and for the rest of the tournament.
