Listening to Greenway talk makes me think he's gone after this year at BU.

37 shots on goal for the U.S.  32 saves for Tomek through two periods.  

Some goals he'd probably like back, but he hasn't been bad.  Nothing about his game leads one to believe he couldn't get into a game for UND the second half. 

He has more than held his own so far in this one.

[cberkas]

Looks like a goal.

[cberkas]

No goal.

[ksl_sioux4ever]

I think usa was way offsides for goal 3. Maybe that's why they waved off this 6th goal

[Wilbur]

45 saves now for Tomek as the U.S. is up to 50 SOG.  

[cberkas]

That was a bullet.

Nasty goal. 

[Cratter]

The second string goalie will get a start before the third string goalie does at UND.

[Wilbur]

Final score:  5-2. 

Good showing for Matej.  Shots were 50-20. 

[ksl_sioux4ever]

It was a nice goal but it looked like Thompson was offsides. Goal or no goal though, usa was taking this one. Tomek played better than the guy last night though

Tomek didn't look fatigued like Huska did. Not sure who they go with, I think Tomek is a bit better then Huska. If Tomek had gontten some games this year I think he does better.

I have the game on my DVR, I could put the goals up later tonight.

Any guesses what the score would be if Johnson played against USA world Junior team ? Or Canada ?

[scpa0305]

I thought tomek held his own ina tough matchup. He'd want that 4th goal back.  All in all, he looked solid.

Which one?

The article from earlier this year and the blog post from a few weeks ago. I didn't see anything I'd categorize as critical. I'd say it defended him more than anything.

Back to Back Shutouts.   

Even with Slovakia's defense in front of him.

why is not Cam so good like last year ? Because a team in front of him. And he is 3 years older than Tomek, who can afford some mistakes after 1 season without  a match (Cam did it when he was 21 !!!  and started in UND).

And last reason is next season, who will be in the net, Cam and Matt will go away and Peter Thome in the USHL has not very impressive stats

And at least one assist per game.

Your English seems a little....Rough! 

Tomek....Is this you?

There is nothing different about Cam...and you (Tomek) will be the superstar the next two years....No worries!

[Wilbur]

Losing Stecher and LaDue would hurt any goalies GAA.  

That being said I haven't even looked at Cam's stats compared to last year. 

USA-RUSSIA today!

It isn't a certainty that Cam will leave after this season.  It all depends on the offers he gets.  True his numbers aren't as good, but I think that NHL scouts understand the defense isn't as veteran in front of him either.  But Cam could decide to stay and improve his stock and numbers, even if it means he may not play all the time like he has this year.

No way.  USA is about to pile on 4-5 more. 

Based on first period play, there was a chance. Defense ended up being terrible all game.
