Have the Germans now passed the Americans?

But I would probably stop short of calling Canada dominant at the highest level. I'd say we're definitely the team to beat, but Canada doesn't just get challenged. Canada can be beat by a number of countries.



When I think of domination, I think of a team like the US women's soccer team.


When I say “dominant” I simply meant they are the best.

No country consistently gets the results that Canada does.

Wolf looks like he's still a kid next to the other USA goalies.

I didnt watch, but you would think he would have liked to have played better than a .850 s%.

Yeah, those numbers don't look too great. Against Germany too. Would've liked to see a shutout or just one goal against.

At least he got the W

Apologies if this has been discussed already, but where's the good spot to watch the game tomorrow? I might go Mahogany Brewhouse, or maybe downtown somewheres.....?

Refs are actively trying to give the Czech German game to the Czechs, 10 power plays for the Czechs and there is over six minutes left and the Germans are still winning.

The officiating in the CZE/GER game has been just atrocious.

Somehow the Germans have a 4-3 lead even though they have been assessed 10 minors, several that were questionable at best and at least 2 that simply were not penalties.

Truly embarrassing for the IIHF.

If the Russians couldn't beat the Czechs then I except Canada to crush them.

Cazchs are good for a gold every decade or so. Dont underestimate them.

3-0 Russia in the 1st.

Canada as sloppy as I have seen a Canadian WJC team in a long time. They cant get anything going.

It might be 4-0 before this period is over.

Christ, these Russian juniors lookin like the old Soviet Red Army...with the help of really questionable goaltending from Daws.

Hunter needs to find a way to stem the tide right now.
