Whats the deal with Pettersson? He's looks terrible everytime I watch him.
He was pretty good the game I watched, fluid and good outlet pass. But I don't see him as some sort of lock for this year's tourmanent.
What?
I would never make fun of someones english skills as I cant speak anythung else but lol.
Even though USA has been the more undisciplined team, something that's obvious about the last few Canadian juniors teams (the one that played today included) is if you punch them in the mouth they don't respond well. When the game got to 3-0 you started seeing some diving, slashes/cross checks behind the play. Don't remember who exactly it was but there was a horrible knee that thankfully didn't result in injury. Santini going after McDavid was inexcusable as well, but you don't really see that kind of play from other countries when they go down. I'm sure I'll get flack for it as an American, and you're right I'm not 100% unbiased at all, but it seems like a lot of these Canadian teams lately have the mindset that they're SUPPOSED to win every game, so when they're getting dominated they don't know how to respond.
The looks I had at McDavid have been exclusively in the OHL and today's game, but today was the first time I've ever watched him play where he didn't seem like one of, if not THE best player on the ice. The kid is impressive though. He's going to learn soon that at the level he's at now he can't just dominate and try to make the game happen himself, and when he does he's going to be terrifying.
Jon Gillies is pretty unbelievable. I got to see him a bit at Providence this year but he really blew me away today. He's going to be an X factor for Team USA at the 14 WJC. I don't see too much 5 on 5 offensive firepower out of this team, so having a great goalie like Gillies is going to be huge. Pretty crazy that Thatcher Demko is a kid with probably even more hype than Gillies and he'll likely be the NEXT WJC tender.
Shame there was no stream for this game. Finland won in penalty shoot-out

Sounds like the Teuvo Teravainen show continued today in Lake Placid. One scout told me, "best I've seen at [#NJEC] since Patrick Kane."

I was at Kane's last #NJEC and it was a pretty dominant performance. This year, Teravainen's been on a different level than everyone else
Corey Pronman @coreypronman 10m
Teravainen with a filthy shootout goal because why not.
Corey Pronman @coreypronman 38m
Teravainen gets another break but just misses the hat trick. Then almost sets up a goal. #BeastMode

Teuvo Teräväinen Dominated the tournament. by far the best player bar none at this level, just put Barkov center to him at wjc and gold is Finlands.
