Yep thats exactly my point they can't let the Russians catch a hint of momentum. A powerplay goal here, a deflected shot from the point there, they are right back in this thing.

Amazing how all four lines have found chemistry playing a week together or less.

Agreed. All I know is if Canada sticks with the game plan and keeps the heavy hitting and forecheck game going, Russia is toast.
I just fear we'll let up just enough to let the momentum swing.

Ovechkin was playing wimpy and lazy. He gets too much credit for the occasional hit he delivers. A lot of the time he's just sailing around instead of making things difficult for the opposing players.

Awesome period.

Fine by me! I hope he stays wimpy and lazy

They'd be stupid to continue with Nabby.

The Nash-for-Morrow swap proving to be extremely important.

A great period to be Canadian hockey fan. Two more like it, please. And if Iggy can get a few goals and Roberto can keep any more pucks from crossing the red line, even better.

that almost goal by the line of Richards-Toews-Nash was incredible, especially for a line that was just put together. after Staal-Crosby-Iginla they have easily been the best line so far, Nash looks like an entirely different player than he did in the first 3 games

Has anyone else noticed the Russians giving us a cushion along the boards in the offensive zone?
It almost seems intentional. Rather than risk losing a battle and being out of position they would rather take their chances keeping them to the outside. Interesting strategy if that is what they are doing.

The COC just canceled "Own The Podium". New program effective immediately: "Own Evgeni Nabokov".

Nabokov is miles better than Bryz, but he crapped the bed. If Canada continues to pepper the net with 20+ shots in the 2nd period, Bryz won't stand a chance.
I wouldn't hold my breath on Bryz getting the Russians back, nor would I Ovechkin.
