Look, I'm happy USA won, but I really think 3 on 3 is no way to determine the outcome of this important game. Seems like a shame to cheapen it after 60 minutes of great hockey.

reply

Yeah I agree with this. But Canada had chances McDavid fanned on a shot then did a power move to the net that got washed out.

Yea, very fluky where a single bounce is the difference

I didn't see the goal. Was it cheap? There's so much open ice to begin with

reply

It was a nice shot.

reply

Yeah I Hughes was wide open and beat the goalie. Wasn’t a fluky shot

reply

Not a fluke goal by any means. The 3 vs 3 game is basically a different sport than 5 vs 5 cause it turns into constantly trading odd man breaks

reply

Canada had the edge in 3-3.

Makar lost a 50-50 puck chip at the USA blue line and McDavid had two great chances to end it but came up short

Canada just got Goalie’d today and that was the difference

reply

Agreed, 3vs3 just is more random and coin flippy in general tho

reply

Those three-on-one break aways gotta be stressful. Talk about putting your team on your back.

Congrats team USA

reply

Heading to OT.

USA was playing well until that 5-3 power play they had to kill in the 2nd period it’s been all Canada since then.

Hellebuyck is saving the day with some awesome saves

Come on USA!! It’s like the USA is playing way too cute. Passing up shots stupid drop passes at the blue line entry.

3-3 is not in USA favor. Let’s see what happens

Hats off to Hallebuyck. 40 shots on net is no joke.

Killed off a 5-3? Big if it happens

reply

The enemy outnumbers us a paltry 5 to 3

reply

Good 1st period USA getting too cute they should be firing pucks at the net.

Canada is a sleeping giant need all the goals we can get

reply

They'll beg for statehood when we prove superior in the only thing they love more than maple syrup.

Bullshit call when they don’t call too many men

I can't watch on this damn boat. I'm counting on SN updates

reply

Nate misses a wide open net to take the lead still 1-1

USA just getting ran over.

reply

USA hits a double post keeps the score tied in the final seconds of the 2nd period.

USA were on their heels. They are having a hard time with zone entries and offensive zone time.

Canada is going to come out hard USA needs to find some consistency coming through the neutral zone.
