Wow. Whatta save by Conz..

 

[adsfan]

What a save by Conz!

 

[adaminnj]

That's because Americans don't know anything about hockey.

#4 was shaky and #1 doesn't apply. I need to see it again, but I thought there were near one of the circles, not outside the blue line.

I don't know what you mean by #1 not applying. The American had possession of the puck inside of the Swiss zone. As for #4, from what I saw, the American player had possession up and until the Swiss defender's errant stick knocked obstructed him.

 

[adsfan]

Over hype a save much?

No. The US will be lucky to get a win out of this game. Both goalies look strong, not like the other game that I saw today.

I thought he did play-by-play for the NHL Network?

He is the play by play broadcaster for the Baltimore Orioles.

Says the player has to be fouled, as far as I saw there as no foul there, he just lost his stick.

As far as I remember a penalty shot is awarded when a player intentionally throws his stick to impede the player on the breakaway

game over

Simple, I believe that the play happened in the Swiss D-zone, below the blue line, so #1 doesn't apply.

USA USA USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bye here we come!

 

[William H Bonney]

Got the win but that's easily our worst game of the tournament. Not a good way to go into the semis. Coaching staff needs to make some adjustments on the break.

 

[Natey]

Great game.

Man, the Suisse are getting REALLY good in recent years.

 

[Brock Anton]

Happy that we won, but not happy on how. Once again we failed to close a team out in the third period.

it's funny that he wants IIHF Rules now that you show him NHL rules after he said "I've seen this in the NHL"

ROFLMAO!

USA wins but i'm very disappointed at their play, i'm not impressed at all as a Canada fan. Good job by Swiss to rivalize with Americans.

Campbell going Miller for the Team USA World Juniors

Sensational effort by him throughout the round robin, now it's serious time now

 

[Brock Anton]

Conz not player of the game for Switzerland?

Campbell has been very good but lets tone down the crazy hyperbole. Outside of the Finland game, Jack wasn't overly tested.

 

[adsfan]

The USA needs to finish better on offensive plays and in the third period. Against a Canada, Russia or Sweden they will get killed if they play like that.

USA wins but, I'm not impress at all.

 

[William H Bonney]

Conz not player of the game for Switzerland?

Yeah, weird choice. Conz kept them in it early with some huge saves. Swiss played well overall though.

 

[sabresfan129103]

I'll take 2 more 2-1 wins please.

Exactly. He barely saw any action against Slovakia and Germany.
