USA are very, very impressive... more than last year in fact, and without Kessel. More balanced, more scoring forwards, better d-men... easy tournament at this point, it would be a huge disappointment if the failed to win the gold again.
Funny, some observers didn't even picked them to reach the semi finals!

3-1 now. Apparently Chris Summers got the boot for what would appear to be a clean check. As a result, he was given a five minute major and the Czechs have taken advantage.

How's our hopeful draft pick Erik Johnson playing? After scoring 4 against hapless Belarus, it would be nice to see him playing well against a quality club....

Finland leads the final against USA after first period 1 - 0. Goal was scored by Joonas Kemppainen. Go Finland Go! :handclap:

Oh boy...Finland gets screwed. Replay clearly shows the puck going in after the 20:00 mark. 2-1 USA after two, but it should be a 1-1 tie.

Considering the all the times NA teams have been screwed by bad European officials, I wouldn't worry about it.

Ugly penalty by EJ....checking from behind and of course the automatic five minute major and game misconduct. Nice of TSN to catch the curse filled tirade by EJ :sarcasm:

Huge loss for Team USA and most certainly bad judgement on EJ's part. What was he thinking? :shakehead

Wow Johnson is such a tool. He showed poor poor poor attitude. First his complete dirty, hit from behind. Than he loses it once kicked out. Dude, grow up. You deserved it.

What does that have to do with this game?
