The US has a problem with these goalies. they look average at best

Halverson is definitely supposed to be "the guy" at this camp. His direct competition - Alex Nedeljkovic - isn't at camp though as he's recovering from an injury. Oldham is essentially filling Nedeljkovic's spot.

7-3 now? Oldham is not very good it seems. 55 SV%.

8-3. Rantanen with 3 assists

any opinion about next game ? for me is white simply better in attack and in opielnka is better goakeeper than has team blue - but will be enough against sweden ?

Team White is definitely the better Team USA group. Deeper defense and better forward group. Nothing to do with Opilka, as Sarthou (on Team White) is better than him anyway.

The scores here don't really mean all that much (to any of the squads) as this is more about evaluation and preparation. I'm sure Team Blue hates getting slaughtered today, and I'm sure Oldham would like to stop a puck this camp, but it'll mean little when the actual tournament rolls around. We have to remember that for a lot, if not all of these players, this is the first real hockey they've played in months.

Can Team White beat Sweden? Sure. Does it really matter? No.

3 pointless games from Dvorak...didn't see any of the games, but that can't have been good for his chances.

10-3 What a crush.
Why USA failed that way and what happen?.

Seems that USA Blue has big goaltending and defence problem.
Where i can see all goals.
