None of the goalies impressed me on Saturday. Last year Parsons was lights out vs. Canada in Plymouth. This year... not impressed.

Yeah Saturday wasn't really a night for goalies...or defense. Americans still saw good performances from Petruzzelli and Oettinger though during the full squad games. Wells/DiPietro had good showings. Don't care about Hart cause summer hockey doesn't agree with him but when the season starts so does he. Filip Gustavsson is in the same boat as Hart. After this showcase only the Fins should be hoping this wasn't representative of their WJC goaltending because their defense was great. The goaltending was a huge letdown and it's the same issues that have been bugging Luukkonen for awhile. So for Finland's sake they'll be hoping one of their goalies can be average.

Thanks for the information, man.
