Canada almost got taken out by czechia and finland. Too close for my comfort. They need to find a 6th gear against the US who has looked much stronger against their opppnents.

Binnington's sv% is horrendous and he needs to come up with some big saves, even then the defense lets him down.

Prediction, crosby comes back and scores another golden goal.

The only thing certain is my anxiety levels....

To be fair only Sweden has been a proper challenge for USA and they had trouble there too. Canada has been tested and proved themselves, USA has nearly skated smoothly to the finals. So we'll see if USA can even get into 5th gear since they have been on cruise control so far.

Yep and Finland played shit in the 2 games I watched so they haven't been playing their best. How the fuck did they do so badly against czechia? I didn't see that game

Not to make excuses but Czechia did have 6 players on the ice.

For the game-tying goal, they had at least 6 players on the ice. Canada still won, but it's true.

Of course the refs missed a too many men on the US today. I'm not complaining, it's more amusing than anything else.
