USA-Canada hockey chatter thread

  Miller is playing well. Just nothing happening on the offensive end for the Red White and Blue.
  
  If they can get it to a one goal game near the end and make a run.
  
  Do you believe in miracles?

  shoot the GD puck.

  Terrible power plays for the U.S.
• Strapping Young Lad

  

  Close to 3 right there.
• THE4RINGZ

  

  The USA needs some intensity, They are flat.
• Strapping Young Lad

  

  Whooo hooo!!!!!
• tk421

  

  Finally! USA Goal. 2 - 1.
• Strapping Young Lad

  

  That's what we needed right there....Dammit Parise had a nice chance there too.
• THE4RINGZ

  

  Finally getting some shots on goal.
• tk421

  

  So close.
• Strapping Young Lad

  

  Shit. I think we can get another, we just can't give uo the odd man rush trying to do it.
  
  Wow some close calls for US. Can't give up another one to these assholes....
• tk421

  

  End of 2. 2 - 1.
• Strapping Young Lad

  

  We're right in this......I think we got 'em.
• Glory Days

  

  Gotta keep control of the puck, especially on the power plays.

  The US have all the momentum right now. Luongo is looking a bit shaky and Miller has finally woken up with a huge save on Richards. If they can get an early goal (USA) the third period might be the greatest period of hockey of all time.

  will they play multiple OT's until someone scores if it goes into OT...or will there be shootout?
• chicago510

  

  20 minute 4 on 4 OT then a shootout

  I wish..........
  
  They play one OT then go into a SO.
• UA5straightin2008

  

  20 minute OT?
  
  i thought OT was 5
• BigAppleBuckeye

  

  Gotta love being only down 2-1. Down 2-0, I thought of the old soccer saying that a 2 goal lead is the most dangerous of all, due to the complacency that comes with it. I think the US took advantage of this to some degree, lets hope they can tie this quickly and make it an epic 3rd period.

  Overtime rules: If a game is tied at the end of regulation, a 4-on-4, sudden-death overtime period will be played (five-minute OT in preliminary round, 10-minute OT in playoff round and 20-minute OT in gold-medal game). If the game is not decided in overtime, it will go to a shootout.

• chicago510

  

  Wish they followed the NHL playoff system of multiple overtimes, multiple OT sudden-death games are epic.
• End of Line

  

  When it comes to hockey, a 2 goal lead is the worst you can have.
• swamisez

  

  Golden goal indeed. But sadly, shootout would decide it.
  
  Gotta get that equalizer first though. Go USA
• slingshot4ever

  Canada is out playing us right now. Hit the post twice.
