Schmaltz back on the point for the pp

Schmaltz to the dressing room, got high sticked, blood on the ice. Double nose plug, 2 man advantage for 12 secs, then long pp. Swede given a double minor on the high stick

US pp. Swedes getting the better of it shorthanded

Swedes return favor with an ozone trip. 4 on 4

Swede pp,

There's a Boeser wrister from the slot, wide open on a Schmaltz pass, Goalie stops it. Haven't seen that chance stopped for the entire first half.

Sweden scores but a high stick tip. Still 4-2. Play started with soft d again. No harm done.

Donato scores on the 2 on 1. 4-2. Defense optional both ways

Boeser out with Matthews and Tkachuk, Boeser tips in the point shot for his first. 3-2 USA

TV, nhlnetwork

2-1 US. Play by play guy going on and on about Werenski, as he let's a Swede go right by him for an easy pass and goal. And they do it again against a different defensive pair. Both times both Swede forwards go in 2 on 2 and go right by the d for an easy 2 on 0 goal. 2-2. Not the forward back check problem, Starman, those 4 d men were the problem. US dmen didn't compete at all on those two rushes

See my edit. I did. Was in the top row during period 2.

Looked all night for someone marvelous. Must have missed you Even spent a period in 110, since a piano was blocking the view from my seat. Not sure that's where you are

I thing both the Vikings and Packers will lose. Had they played each other, one had to win

Guess we'll get an early game tomorrow Pool A seemed like the stronger pool, but goes unrepresented in the medal game, so I guess not

Yep, getting a regular shift

Wonder if the Canadian fans are for the US or Russia, since they hate them both

Might be up to Schmaltz/Boeser/Hitchcock

Hoping. I am losing hope to see Schmaltz next year though

Can't believe Boeser hasn't found space to get off his shot through the whole tournament

Big time soft defense, Russians running over the smaller Americans for most of the period, after a decent start. Matthews needs to cash in on the PP to start the third. Guys with goals to play in the nhl better be able to play against trees like these russians, except with the added skill and speed of those in the nhl.

Yep, top line needs to get going. Good shift just then, but I think Matthews should have been a bit more selfish passing up an open shot from the slot.

US has been better this period, still looks like the goalie will have to steal this one. Time for Boeser from Schmaltz

Retired, working pt, but I'd work full time if I could get paid to watch hockey and post on message boards.
