World Cup of Hockey Discussion

[Hollywood Cannon]

This is still exhibition? Seems like they have played A LOT of warm up games in this tourney. Sort of took a lot of the hype away, at least for me.

Last exhibition games, tournament starts on Saturday.

 

[Curufinwe]

I don't know NBC has about 5 networks they can show things on. Maybe one of the games would have been if they were on at the same time.

They do, but from my experience with the Premier League they only put stuff on CNBC or USA for big games. Not exhibition games.

 

[Magua]

Neuvirth is starting... does that mean he's the likely starter for the real games?

I think he's leapfrogged Mason at this point, yes.

 

[Magua]

Ghost started off real shaky, but he came on stronger after his first few shifts.

Saad paired with Coots is fun. Cycle and forechecking monsters.

 

[Curufinwe]

I think he's leapfrogged Mason at this point, yes.

Mason didn't even make his national team. What a bum.

 

[kudymen]

Neuvy with 16 saves after 1st

I don't know this is kind of different than that though. They don't own MLB tv rights so they don't really much going for them on the week days.

Gostisbehere almost took Neuvirth 's head off with that shot.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

That defensemen the Hawks signed out of the KHL doesn't look too bad.

Pleasently surprised with Kempny so far, not very noticeable which is a good thing. Every single new Dman name counts for us nowadays

 

[kudymen]

Mrazek switching with Neuvirth.

Neuvy - 0 GA, 25 saves. Mrazek's only chance is to start scoring goals heh

Yeah the Czech's & Russian's have big drop offs in talent on the backend compared to upfront & in net. Kind of strange.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Saad had Gostisbehere loaded up for a one timer on that odd man rush. Passed him up.

 

[kudymen]

The game has almost as much structure as the Oilers under Eakins now...

 

[FLYguy3911]

Heard a Czechoslovakia reference.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Faksa looked like a guy who was going to be left for dead about a year ago.

 

[kudymen]

Ghost, how dare you

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

**** yeah Ghost!

 

[FLYguy3911]

Bombs Away!

 

[kudymen]

Why does Couts always go for Voracek tonight

 

[Tripod]

What a shot by Ghost!

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Would have loved to see Voracek lose it on Murray there. An angry Voracek is one of the funniest things ever.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Leafs fans are going nuts.

 

[kudymen]

Voracek will be sat for a few shifts apparently

 

[FLYguy3911]

Czechs are better off with Murray on the ice. Another goal against.
