Tippet using Monahan a lot more... seems to be getting a regular shift with Hubrudeau and Ward

[AC]

Mono just crushed someone along the boards.

Every time I saw him in the game yesterday he was doing something, so I'm not sure why Tippett played him so little yesterday.

Mueller and Gaudreau on the same line now? Perhaps a glimpse into the future? Please let this happen Treliving!

Swiss takes 1-0 lead over the US.

Kevin Fiala forces Tocheck to turnover the puck

[puckluck2]

Berra with a great glove save.

[Ashasx]

Fiala always looks great whenever I watch him. Seems hugely underrated in this draft.

Gaudreau a magician on the pp. Several beautiful passes.

Agree he doesn't have that half second of delay when he gets the puck, he knows what he's gonna do with it before it even touches his stick

Mueller ties it 1-1 coming out of the pentaly box on a break away

[sureLoss]

Brunner scores. 2-1 Swiss

[puckluck2]

Battle of the slow big goalies.

[sureLoss]

PP goal by Slovakia. 1-0 over Canada

[puckluck2]

Gaudreau creates chances out of nothing. Can't wait for next season.

[direwolf]

Canada playing pretty well, but their lack of finish is hurting them. And they need to stay out of the box.

[sureLoss]

Canada ties it 1-1.

Ward tips a Garrison shot.

Monahan should get a plus

Paajarvi put up some good numbers in 2010 and 2011, hasn't turned out to be much yet. Still gotta be patient with Gaudreau and make sure he develops the right way, but there's no reason to think he can't be a top notch player.

[The Yen Man]

In the hindsight draft, I bet Oilers are kicking themselves for not trading down in the draft and picking up Trouba instead of Yakapov. Right now I wouldn't even trade them one for one.

[FanIn80]

So is Monahan actually getting ice time today?
