Looks like Canada will play the winner of Finland - USA assuming Sweden is not upset by the Czech Republic.

That was a heck of a slapper by the Slovak player to break the Joel Hofer shutout bid.

/Hey @BGDave , a hockey player named Joel

Beecher is lucky not to been tossed and Greg Buttons is apoplectic in the broadcast booth.

No score after 40 minutes between the States and Finland - The goalie for Finland has been very good today.

/They said on the broadcast he has a 1.32 GAA in the Finnish Elite League.

Just saw the Foote hit that got him tossed out of the game - It was a clean body check, Slovak player bailed out at the last second and contact to the head was minimal.

Counterpoint - He is Adam Foote's son, so fuck him.

Foudy shows off some speed and the Slovaks are getting run out of the rink.

I have really been paying attention to him especially and have been watching highlights of his goals all year. Really can't wait for the FoudShow to get here in the Lumbus.

In fact, can he leave now?

Finns open the scoring on the PP

Two-hander and then a chicken wing from Wahlstrom - Sums up a disappointing tourney for him.

Finnish goaltending once again gets results.

Finnish goaltending once again gets results.

The Finnish goalie had an outstanding game, but the Finns certainly deserved the win today, they out-hustled and outworked the States today, Spencer Knight played very well between the pipes for the States and I would argue kept his team in the game.

Hosts apparently committed to playing the whole game shorthanded.



aaaaand Hoglander puts one in on the third PP in the first 12 minutes.

Hoglander should have lacrossed that one in
