USA was up 2-1 after two. Exploded for four goals in the third to win
6-1.

 

[Cam]

Been some great games. Watching US/Canada right now.

 

[biggunsbob]

Larkin just gave the USA the lead over Canada 2-1 late second period.,
Btw Sweden with 2 overtime losses is still not eliminated.

USA up 2-1 after one.

USA gets the empty netter ! Assist from Larkin !

USA will win 3-1 and while the other three teams have to battle it out Monday the USA advances to the championship on Thursday!
Still have to play Sweden Monday .

Is this some sort of amature tournament during the season? Team USA vs the other countries?

I'm not sure if you're serious or not. Most thought Canada was loaded and had the best chance to win. Still might I guess. Everyone is an NHL'er.

no, I have never heard of this tournament. I thought it was amatures since it is being played mid season.

 

[biggunsbob]

Btw why isn't the Canada the second game tonight ? Now that they are crushing Finland 4-0 early second period they will in effect make the USA vs Sweden game worthless. They should have played the USA game first to make for more drama.

I can't sign this "contrivation" (sic). It's merely a way for NHL players to gain revenue. To unplug from an NHL season and suddenly have selected players coalesce into "cohesive" teams based on nation-states is the pinnacle of the-emperor-has-no-clothes gala.

Canada holds on winning 5-3 Final.

It was worthless anyways at least for USA who already guarantee Thursday final. And I suspect the times were already scheduled pre tournament.

Same reason the Olympics are mid season, and same with the World Cup. Not a big fan of any of it but where are they going to have these events, Summer?

 

[biggunsbob]

Sweden beats USA 2-1. Both goalies were fabulous.

 

[Cam]

Should be a great game on Thursday. Bet Canada wins this time.
