Does Luongo want the shutout?

[Guest Lidstromboli]

how about winning an off. zone faceoff, USA?

forecheck and defense have been pretty great so far though

Perry reminding me yet again of why I should hate Team Canada.

How can one team have so many dickheads on it?

[Seraph 240]

USA strategy so far: making weak shots that may or may not reach the net...

Let's take it deep boys, and win some battles!!

Oh god.....the thought of Crosby, Perry, and Pronger holding up the gold medal together. As if 09 wasn't ******* bad enough....

I will have my remote handy, to turn off the TV if that happens. Then, I will concentrate on Wings hockey, where we sadly may possibly still be treated to constant barrages of Gary's boy.

Just look at Yzerman and Babcock. Toews, Doughty and a couple of other guys are cool as well.

I thought the US played like trash that period. They didn't play the way they've played the whole tournament. Poor skating, bad passes, and avoidable turnovers. If they're not outskating and creating turnovers, they have no shot. Really, they're playing like a bunch of kids playing in the biggest game of their life.

I didn't think Canada played that great either, so luckily, we only find ourselves down one.

40 minutes to get this thing turned around.

GO USA!

Lol, swedish TV was gonna talk to Holland during the intermission, but he backed out of it with a text saying he was too nervous

[skyphoenix 153]

It's no one's game yet. I think both teams were very even that period overall but USA held more offensive pressure and they just need to work on getting the puck low and crashing the net to create more chances.

Except then they'll stop calling him "Stanley Cup Champion Sidney Crosby" for a while. Ugh.

[Guest blueadams]

these icing calls are killing us.

Maybe Neidermayer will take the 2nd period off to contemplate retirement.

Roberto Luongo. Shutout.

Did I see that you just wrote that Luongo has a SHUTOUT going?

Hmmm. Sure hope that doesn't last.

[titanium2 867]

[edicius 3,269]

Luongo's due to give up a goal within the next couple of shots.

[Vladifan 680]

Anybody else think there should have been a call on Luongo in the middle of the first? Didn't he trip up one of our guy?

Yeah, yeah I know it's academic at this point and I am grabbing at straws/whatever at the moment.

I felt like a change. Funny thing is I changed it a couple of days ago, but it didn't take effect until today. Too radical?

Give me a SHUT!

Give me an OUT!

What's that say?

SHUTOUT!!!

[Hockeytown Red Wings 245]

SHUTOUT....

Start of the second....LET'S GO!

[Guest Howard He Do It?!]

Team USA would wisely be advised to score the next goal.

he probably did... that's how he managed to keep his SHUT OUT alive.

Go, USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[edicius 3,269]

These turnovers in front of Miller are getting ridiculous.

[Guest Howard He Do It?!]

I like the crease rules. Makes for very little controversy.

[skyphoenix 153]

Come on, really?
