They should eliminate the tournament down to 7-8 teams (US, Canada, Russia, Sweden, Finland, Czech, Slovakia and maybe a winner of a pooling round).</p>

Most of the tournaments are the big-7 you mentioned and 1-3 token lower-level teams like Austria, Norway, Germany, France, Italy, Belarus, Denmark, Switzerland, Hungary, and Slovenia.</p>


 </p>


Anyhow, Saturday is a crisis for me--US vs. Slovakia--my 2 fave international teams.</p>


 </p>


Nerw Years Eve, though, 2 grudge matches on the same day--the US vs Canada, and the Czechs vs the Slovaks. :icon-smile:</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

4-0 USA at end of 2.</p>


 </p>


John Gillies 16 saves so far.</p>

 

[JOVE23]

oh damn what a goal by Hinostroza</p>

 

[Shantz My Pants]

Hinostraza and Hartman with a goal and assist respectively.

I one time played pond hockey with Vince a few years back and the kid was only 5'4 120 pounds soaking wet (think he was 14) and just being a monster on the ice dangling and blowing past guys. Kinda cool to look back on it and say I played shinny with a potential NHLer.

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

The Finns looked good today.</p>



Looking forward to seeing my first Team USA game early tomorrow morning.</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

Hartman just scored a beauty on the PP.</p>


 </p>


Slovaks are really sloppy so far... USA 3/3 on the PP.</p>


 </p>


3-0 in the 2nd.</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

And just like that...</p>


 </p>


Lead is cut to 1 goal.</p>


 </p>


3-2 USA</p>


 </p>


Things getting chippy out there.</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

Lol...</p>


 </p>


Looks like USA is going to win 6-2.</p>


 </p>


GO CZECHS GO!!!!!</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

... or 6-3...</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

Teravainen another point for Finland early in the 1st.</p>


 </p>


SWE/FIN tied at 1-1</p>

Just added another helper.</p>


Not to jump the gun, but it seems the Hawks have hit the jackpot in both Teravainen and Hartman. Still too early to tell on Hartman, but he's having a hell of a tournament so far.</p>

 

[roshinaya]

Hartman is playing with Eichel who is certainly looking to be a top draft pick.</p>


 </p>


The CZE-CAN game was insane, especially the third period with mad exchange of goals. CZE won in the shootout. Woo.</p>

 

[MassHavoc]

I watched a good chunk of the Slovakia game. Fun to see Hartman and Vince. Hard to watch them closely without being familiar with the rosters. They dominated from when I turned it on.

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

Early stages of the 2nd period.</p>


 </p>


USA leads Germany 3-0.</p>


 </p>


Hinostroza and Hartman with points again.</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

And Hinostroza just scored on the PP.</p>


 </p>


4-0 USA</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

Lol... Riley Barber!</p>


 </p>


5-0</p>


 </p>


USA is going to hang a 10 spot.</p>


 </p>


Why is Germany even in this tournament?</p>

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

6-0 still 1:30 left on the Power Play.</p>


 </p>


Vince another point, make it 3 for him today.</p>
