The Sicatoka

USA needs to: - play the speed game for the whole game - have Knight play more like the last two games of pool play (he was too active, trying to do too much v. FIN) - not take silly penalties (like the two DOGs over the glass) - sit 5 and play 7 as the seventh defenseman* *5 looks out of sorts out there; it's too fast for him when USA is in the speed game. They can't put him out with anyone but 4 or 8 or it's danger-danger in the USA end; and that wastes 4 or 8 for a shift.

Nope. It'd be nice to go to OT tied at 0-0 ... and then have CAN trail for the first time in the tournament.

You didn't say that. You really didn't say that.

It was Johnny Walker this time that went all Svechnikov on them.

What are Wentz's and Cousin's contracts? Could the teams literally do a "change of scenery" swap with minimal fiscal impacts? Found it. It's not exact, but it's close. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/cap/ https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/minnesota-vikings/cap/

Sanderson's "just OK" is consistently getting him top four minutes. That's OK.

RUS +240 CAN -315 FIN +210 USA -275 https://sportsbook.draftkings.com/leagues/hockey/12110467?category=game-lines&subcategory=1st-period Bet $100 on RUS and they win you get your $100 plus $240. To me that's best on the board. CAN at -315 (bet $315 and if they win you get your $315 plus $100) doesn't interest me.

I think you answered your own question.

The only reason this thread is still alive is the Rydell conversation. If the other stuff rears up again it gets closes. The Moderation Team.

Awomen.

Good grief.

You have to call the diving for it to matter.

Sanderson could've made a better choice. (He had more time than he realized.) But, the forward didn't do much to help the clearing attempt nor did they do much to stop the shot-pass. And the other defenseman was late getting over to the man who made the tip. That will assuredly be a film room conversation.

In order, who the Eagles hate the most: NYG, DAL, WAS. WAS gets the pass from PHI because they are least unacceptable.

Play Kleven.

Do today’s college students know what a landline is?

That's quite the ignominious distinction.

If USA plays against FIN like they did against SVK they'll get run right out of not just Edmonton, but Alberta.

If we could "wish" a game right now GER v. SWE would be intriguing.

PHI only has 11 F on the big roster and under $3 M of space. Good cheap players (Allison, Brink) would have that advantage. Allison is already under his first contract.

Quarters: RUS, FIN, CAN, USA. I’d love to pick SWE but they just seem down this year.

The last two SWE games could not have gone better ... for the USA.

TV ratings.

I think this is correct. I like my solution: SWE over RUS then USA over SWE (and the SWE streak ends).
