Slovaks defense is literally Chara. That's it.

Slovakia has a defense?

 

[Juicy Bob]

KESSEL IN THE PENALTY BOX

Spoiler

Am I doing that right?

 

[Fei]

Hey Jonathan Quick, you know what Jonas Hiller didn't do? Allow a goal.

Quick's a bum! Put in the backup!

 

[Samyy]

KESSLER I

YOU MONSTER

 

[Red_Man]

Switched to the Russian feed, and the first thing I hear is Glenn Healy's voice.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Staz needs a hatty so we can fleece someone at the deadline pls

 

[lamaroo]

Anyone around the world watching the Canadian feed, please don't judge us for Healy.

The mute button is your friend.

 

[kingslunk]

I want to see goal after goal after goal on Varly when US plays. Russian scum.

 

[ZeroGravity]

I just turned on the other game briefly...is Russia playing the Seahawks?

 

[Skab]

I just turned on the other game briefly...is Russia playing the Seahawks?

Yes.

 

[DrM]

Slovenia scored again!

Nice

Jeglič-Tičar-Sabolič is one of the best attack lines that now dead club in Jesenice produced.

 

[Red_Man]

Slovakia has a defense?

Chara has only been on for 1 goal against, and the only goal for. 1 man defense.

This is what my local radio said :lol

 

[Fei]

Which channel is carrying the Russia game?

 

[zychi]

This nbcsports stream is pissing me off. Going to commercial randonmly, during a powerplay and right before a goal. Ugh

 

[illmatic22]

Which channel is carrying the Russia game?

MSNBC

 

[Madness]

Lol, thought the same thing. They probably have the same jerseys they used with the Vancouver 2010 colors.

 

[Drazgul]

Holy butt USA.

Real test is against MOTHER RUSSIA.

If the Slovenia game is any indication, USA shouldn't have any problems getting the group win.

 

[Fei]

MSNBC

Nice - thanks. I was worried hockey would be tape delayed by NBC like much of their coverage. Pretty cool to be able to watch two games live.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

No Duchene and no Subban? Will probably go tomorrow I guess.

It is the worst.

So most of these guys play in a Slovenian league? How many play in Sweden/Russia/wherever else?

 

[jello44]

Yeah, I'm noticing that now lol.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

So I wonder who all will get NHL contracts after these are over?

That Ziga Jeglic guy might get one I bet. Apparently there were already rumors of the Kings snagging him.

Some western team. Could be the Varly killer

 

[John Dunbar]

Russia is known to have some huge problems against underdogs from time to time. Totally different game against US as they start to play. Russia has huge difference between bad and good day. I have seen it too many times...

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

nichushkin's go to move.

 

[Silkworm]

4-2 Russia (worried for a moment that the refs were going to screw it up)

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

russia's so called shutdown line has been getting worked all game.

 

[kassatsu]

russia's so called shutdown line has been getting worked all game.

Which d pairing is that? They have a defense?

Or is it some Khl third line that wouldn't make an ahl team.

 

[yuraya]

Russia's PP line with Ovechkin, Datsyuk, and Kovalchuk is fun as hell to watch. hope they don't go away from it.

 

[Cake Boss]

Wow Belov the Edmonton Olympian Oiler.

 

[Sanjuro]

It's too fucking early for Mike Emrick commentary. I want to throw him out a window.

 

[zyxwvu4321]

Looks like Russia is putting this game away.

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

Which d pairing is that? They have a defense?

tarasenko-anisimov-kulyomin

 

[kingslunk]

Good to see nichushkin score. Hope he learns something and comes back more experienced for the Stars.


I'll have to boo his ass on Saturday.

USA!

 

[DrM]

Nope, almost all guys play abroad. Seven guys play in DEL (Germany), several in Sweden (Allsvenskan), some in other European countries (Czech, France). Only Muršak in KHL and Kopitar in NHL.

Slovenian league is amateur based and it is part of Austrian second league (Slovenian clubs + Austrian clubs from Voralberg region + Italian teams from Southern Tirol region), we have one professional club in Austrian league with major financial problems and another big one died two years ago. Any vast majority of players that play in our national team started their professional way there.

 

[DopeyFish]

kessel actually did something?

 

[ZeroGravity]

Kessel has more points in this one game than he did in the entire 2010 tournament.

 

[KingHenrik30]

Mac Truck is beasting today

 

[hom3land]

That Ziga Jeglic guy might get one I bet. Apparently there were already rumors of the Kings snagging him.

Is there any info if this occurred after the last Olympics?

 

[Cake Boss]

Is it Tarashenko or Taransenko??

 

[KingHenrik30]

Is it Tarashenko or Taransenko??

Senk

 

[DopeyFish]

he was basically invisible in 2010

he was too young then, i think

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

Is it Tarashenko or Taransenko??

tereshchenko is #27

tarasenko is #91

 

[Juicy Bob]

So I pop out to the shops for a few minutes and miss all the goals in the match?

Typical.

 

[Cake Boss]

Could have been 9-1 with Babby
