[Le Golie]

4-1 Canada

Sakic, Iginla, Redden, Richards.

Drury.

 

[Nazzy-19]

I'll say 2-1 Canada. I think Brodeur and Esche are going to stand on their heads. Brodeur has something to prove against Esche and I think the home crowd will push Canada to victory.

[wilka91*]

I say 4-3 USA

 

[Tuggy]

I am pumped for this one, my fridge is full of beer and the game is going to be awesome!

Canada, 3-1.

Heatley (2), Redden
Weight

 

[Vic Rattlehead*]

Since Joe might be sitting http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Hockey/WorldCup/2004/08/30/609595-cp.html, he practiced on the same line as Doan, which means he might sit as well

 

[Vic Rattlehead*]

Thornton improved in the last game a lot, and for his efforts, he could be a possibility in the pressbox Same for Doan.


Enjoy Draper and Maltby Quinn, because the USA will destroy them like the exhibiton game.

USA 3,Canada 2

 

[Rabid Ranger]

I think it will be tight, but I think Canada will pull out a 4-2 victory, the fourth goal being an empty netter.

Canadian goals: Lemieux (2) Heatley (1) Iginla (1)

U.S. goals: Hull (1) Leetch (1)

Canadian goaltending: Brodeur (25 saves)

U.S. goaltending: Esche (31 saves)

 

[Teezax]

So is Esche the guaranteed starter for US? Hopefully he is, as it will give him the experience he needs to become an elite goalie in the NHL. That being siad, ther eis way too much firepower on the Canadian side for him to hold up, Canada edges out the US 2-1.

Can: Heatley, Sakic
US: Guerin
