Game Thread: Slovakia vs. USA - WJHC

[oaknightshockey1]

Another penalty for the US...we can't let them back in it like this. Looks like we got up 3-0 and took our foot off the gas.

Nope I thought because they scored we deserved one too

My bad

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Slovakia scores again on the PP to make it 3-2.

And here we go, it's like watching the Rangers. Get a lead and stop pressing and keeping the pressure on. We let the Slovaks right back in the game.

Yep you get up 3-0 and everyone thinks it's point night

Or morning, in this case

Disgusting, never stop. Always keep the pressure on.

 

[wings-pens2166]

ah man, Slovaks back to the PP...very stupid interference penalty

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Aaaaand there's another penalty

 

[oaknightshockey1]

That was almost the exact same penalty as one we took earlier

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Offensive zone pick play...they are obviously calling it so we need to stop doing that.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Slovakia changed up their PP setup...they were running a sort of box and one but we shut it down pretty well. Now they are going more into an umbrella and getting better chances. We need to adjust. Or stop taking penalties.

Fortunately we killed it off

 

[oaknightshockey1]

All right another US PP...lets keep it perfect here.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Gotta get another one here.

End of 2 US up 3-2. There is 1:01 left on the Slovak penalty, so we will start the third on the power play with fresh ice. It would be great to set the tone for the third early with a goal.
