Canada's cycle is really effective now against the American defense.

The Americans struggling to handle the puck possession down low.

Keep that kind of play up please.

PP coming up. Canada is starting to skate harder and play better as a group.

Flacker · 12-31-2013, 10:48 AM

Come on boys, get one on the PP here. Let's see how the US deal with some adversity.

No it wouldn't.

He played well but it wouldn't be a beatdown.

By that logic if not for the posts it would be a beat down for the Canadians nright now.

Quite the accomplishment as a draft eligible player.

Before the posts he had a number of bug saves. If the Americans are up 3 or 4 goals then this team falls apart. They are fragile as it is.

Good kill. Canada still maintaining pressure though.

Roof-Daddy · 12-31-2013, 10:51 AM

Does Dumba's ever hit the net?

Goodlad · 12-31-2013, 10:52 AM

You'd never guess Canada is the team that played last night right now

With mediocre to bad goaltending it is maybe 3-1 for the Americans that is not a beatdown.

The fragile part we have no idea about at all. They have come back when down all tournament long so not sure what you are basing that on.

Robbob · 12-31-2013, 10:54 AM

stupid penalty

Zach · 12-31-2013, 10:54 AM

Dumb penalty to take there...

moon · 12-31-2013, 10:55 AM

Not a fan of that but Pouliot put himself in a bad spot with that play.

Looks like he thought they were going hit each other on that play and braced for it.

GirlySports · 12-31-2013, 10:55 AM

yeah can't say Canada is fragile. They came back 4 times against the Czechs and then down 3-1 against the Slovaks.

We as Canadians see all of Canada's mistakes but really it's been quite an even game. Canada had some momentum until that penalty.

Acey · 12-31-2013, 10:56 AM

Please don't bench him for that penalty.

Dogbert · 12-31-2013, 10:56 AM

Maybe it's a good thing Canada didn't give Jankowski more of a look - every 2012 draft pick on the team has been crap.

Roof-Daddy · 12-31-2013, 10:56 AM

First period was ugly, much better second though.

schteve_d · 12-31-2013, 10:56 AM

Is there anywhere to watch the game live online in Canada? Appears the NHL feed is U.S. only. I know I'm coming in late...been listening to it on TSN on and off at work as I can.

Really? He was looking at him over his shoulder the whole time then threw a shoulder into him. Pretty clear interference.

Legally in Canada, I believe that is the only option. Welcome to 1950!

There are less than legitimate streams out there if you look.
