Saw the first two USA goals. They look gritty. From what I understood, Canada fielded four scoring lines of mostly centers, giving up on a grinding game. Will work against the Europeans, but how will Torts counter this?

Yesterdays game, good guys USA 4 - evil empire Canada 2.

You can watch tonights game online using the watchESPN app. I’ve downloaded it for these games only. I’ll delete it after the tourny is over.

BTW the in studio host is Linda Cohn who is a defender of Tortorella against Stephen Smith and others who have called for Torts to be sanctioned or fired over his comments defending our flag and anthem.

American squad looked physical and fast. Can't wait for tonight's rematch......and for this tournament to be over so the Bolts get Kucherov signed in time to start the season.

Woo, go team USA and Olli Maata on Finland. 1-0 already, TJ Oshie.

I attended the team Russia and team North American practices today. Those kids are UNREAL. Going to the games tomorrow. Hockey is back, fun times.

The Finns are really good when they try. USA wins by the skin of their teeth. I loved the crowd chanting USA!

I won't be chanting Canada or Russia tomorrow. Just cheering for my favorite players. I'd forgotten Pavel Datsuk was playing for Russia when I saw him today. Tomorrow might be the last time I see him.
Definitely cheering for team NA. Keep an eye out for Auston Matthews, he's the real deal. The coach gave him about 15% offensive zone starts last game and he still generated offense.

Matt Murray still looks sharp and I hope he's in net tomorrow. After practice I got up from my seat and turned to go out. I was startled to see Phil Kessel a few feet behind me in the workout center. I didn't know he was back. I was glad to see he's still smiling.

Ok, I caught the Finland game and the Canada Russia game, so I'm slowly waking up and getting into this.

But help a brother out. WTF is team North America ? Rejects from Canada and USA ?

Mehico ? How does this make any sense ?
