I don't know about that. There was a lot of selfish play by U.S. players during this game. Erik Johnson showed a lot of it. Patrick Kane has a lot of potential, but tried to do too much on his own at times. Jack Johnson had his moments where he thought he'd be the difference maker. Those 3 stick out. Okposo clearly the stud of the team. Kid is amazing to watch play. Chorney had a pretty solid game up until his last shift. Lee was pretty unnoticeable up until his last shift. Bottom line, these guys need to play as a team. They got down early, and spent the remainder of the game trying to tie it up, mostly through individual efforts. Going 1 for 10 on the PP is not good at all, especially against the Germans. The Germans played a very good defense, but I think the U.S. made it look even better for them than it actually is.

Germany wins in OT. Lee let the forward by him.

Game goes to OT. Germans thought game was over. New rules implemented to include 5 minute overtime, followed by shootout if no winner after OT.

Belarus 4 Finland 3 Final

Shots at 36-12 right now.

Germans play a trap like defense, which is very effective on the big sheet of ice. A lot of the U.S. shots have come from the outside.

I have a feeling they'll start Frazee against Canada, though from what I've seen, Zatkoff has my vote.

Okposo draws another penalty on a race for the puck on a possible breakaway.

Zatkoff with a HUGE save!

Stoa takes a hooking penalty to put the Germans on the PP.

U.S. scores on the PP. 1-1. Edit: Mueller with the shot, Skille with the tip.

Erik Johnson trying to do everything again. Canadian announcers all over him about playing team play.

Another PP for the U.S.

U.S. take a tripping penalty.

Make that 0 for 8 on the PP.

U.S. is 0 for 7 on the PP today.

Toews interviewed during intermission. Talking about how everyone has basically put a bullseye on Team Canada and will bring their best game to play against them.

Still 1-0. They're listening to audiocast, I'm watching the game. Audiocast behind telecast.

End of the 2nd. Frustrating game to watch. Feels like we're watching the Sioux. Shots, shots, and more shots, but not goals. Personally, I think we're making the German goaltender look better than he is. Germans do a good job at keeping play on the perimeter, or at least, out from right in front of the net. Need to solve this team early in the 3rd and than pour it on.

U.S. takes a Too Many Men penalty with 24 seconds left in the 2nd. EDIT: Make that Germany with Too many men. U.S. PP.

Shots, 29-8 in favor of the U.S.

Okposo draws another penalty for the US.

Skille hits a post on a breakaway.

A lot of individual talent on this US team. Now they just need to figure out how to play as a team.

Okposo puts one in after the whistle blows. No goal. Penalty on the Germans again though.
