Three zip Russia. Lots of standing around by Canada.

Germany upsets the hosts, and Russia up early on Canada. Askarov not playing.....

German team has some skill. Up 3-1 on the Czechs.

Easy Brian, the IIHF reffs know better than to call dives....

How does Wolf look in the net today?

Thinking exactly the same thing. Definitely showing how good of a player he is.

Right by an IIHF official I'm 100 percent sure he said f^$k you.

Turn the page, Germany today. Kind of a trap game, the Germans have maybe the best defenseman in the tournament in Seider, and he will play a ton of minutes. Get a win, and head to the day off on a positive note.

Right by one of the IIHF officials.....ahhhhhh yeah.......guessing somebody's reaching on this one.....

You mean trying to sauce a pass on your backhand past the likely #1 overall pick four seconds after your team tied the score isn't heads up hockey?

I liked what he and Brink did together on the PP. Seconds away from a hat trick today.

What do you think about using Pinto between Zegras and Brink?

I have never understood Knight being a first rounder. Hopefully he gets better the rest of the way.

Spencer Knight for me.

Definitely late. Right call. Time to shuffle a bit and shorten if we can't hang 5x5.

I'd say we are losing the period.

Zegras on the 4th line? Wow deep....

Askarov proving to be human. Guess the book is out on shooting glove 4-3 Czechs after two periods.

Russia and the Czechs playing at the moment, and it's a great hockey scene. 1-0 Czechs early.

Never a doubt.

My college football team never makes that one..... Been to Dallas area a few times. Can't say I ventured to Frisco.

Yikes. I'd be for letting the highest seeded team host then. Good for the NCAA that NDSU makes it every year.

Well if not a bigger venue, how about not a soccer stadium? Does the game sell out? I guess if there are tons of unsold seats every year then I'm wrong about bigger stadium.

USA with the 6-4 win today over Sweden.

Housley benched Rocco then he gets two in the title game against Sweden. The real story of that WJC was the goaltending by Gibson. He was fantastic in the knockout round. USA opens today against Sweden in a pre tournament game. Edit* Pinto centering top line today with Zegras and Wahlstrom.
