Got their butts outplayed 2 of 3 periods but scored when it counted. Hellebuyck was the MVP and McAvoy covered the goal and made a save himself and pushed the puck away with his hands while in the air.

I guess that’s the difference between a trust fund baby soaking up the sun on the slopes and a blue collar guy missing his front teeth.
Beautiful interview. Couldn’t say enough how proud of being an American meant to him.

Got up at 6 am to watch, loved every second of it. Jack Hughes isn't exactly blue collar though- his contract is worth $64 million. His kids will be trust fund babbies!

Did they do the flying V?

Just needed a big ole buck on the other side! Sweet helmet.

 

[Bugger]

What a show! And people think low scoring games are boring..
The pace never let up the whole time and every second could have changed the outcome, and still a goalie stole the show!

 

[Stache Attack]

Agreed with the pace it was amazing! What a game!!

 

[dtrkyman]

Was still dark out at puck drop for me! Hughes donates a couple chiclets for game winner. epic!

That game will go down as a Classic for years to come! So glad it ended well for the US!!!
It could have easily went the other way, with most of the effort from he US and Helle being on defense. Thought that double post hit was the last best chance we had, till the 3 on 5 stand, it showed just how good they really are, and what to expect if it went to OT, with 3 on 3. What a class A group of guys representing the US!

I think hockey is the only sport where a player can get his teeth knocked out, break a nose, or get stitches and keep playing.
The interviews with Hughes missing his teeth were great.

Canada definitely had their chance(s) to score on the 5 on 3 but USA was 100% in penalty kill in the tournament

Waking up at 4:00 am to watch a hockey game on tv was dang well worth it. Hughes earned his place in hockey/sports immortality today. USA! USA! USA!

The interviews with Hughes missing his teeth were great.

Or the player who had a heart attack on the bench a few years ago and wanted to get back in the game. Hockey players are a different breed, they are so tough!

It was a great game to watch and loved the Hughes interview! USA USA USA

 

[HairyScandinavian]

Too many men!
Imagine how good USA hockey would be if we became the 51st state.
It was a great game and Canada outplayed the USA. 42-28 in shots.
It sucks it was decided in OT at 3 on 3.

You mean the USA goalie outplayed the Canada goalie.

 

[KBC]

You mean the USA goalie outplayed the Canada goalie.

Definitely. Hockey Canada has messed up in the goalie development side of things. USA will have better goalies for years to come.

Since when does he show up for big games though? So far in Dirtypeg he’s a bust in the playoffs.

 

[KBC]

But seriously, how do you miss a too many men call when the USA had 8 players on the ice and a guy off the bench playing the puck.

 

[Seeknelk]

That goal by Boldy was absolutely amazing! I mean it's only two of the best dmen in the world he split and puts the puck to an area, he protects it with stick work and tucks it in! Legendary goal even if it wasn't the golden goal.

That first US goal was a thing of beauty!
