2. Apparently the US has been watching a lot of the Penguins/Flyers first round playoff series, terrible goal to have Canada tie on.
3. I love battles for the puck as much as the next hockey fan, but seeing no touch icing in this game has me hoping some form of that is introduced at the NHL level sooner than later. Kurtis Foster likely still agrees.
4. Jones (USA) with an excellent stretch pass setting up a scoring opportunity, denied by Canada.
5. Getting very reminiscent of the Anaheim Ducks at Honda Center observing the awfully sparse crowd here.
6. After controlling the play in the final minute of period 1 Canada coughs the puck up leading to a USA one on one opportunity that they do nothing with.
7. Apologize for the vague descriptions for players, don't know many of them yet and the announcers are speaking some magical language I do not understand.
8. Fittingly, Smells Like Teen Spirit is playing during the intermission...
9. USA goalie swimming in net as shot goes way wide.
10. I know they're our neighbors to the North but this game could not have less passion. USA with a good set up from behind the goal line but it's shot wide. Seems to be the theme of the game.
11. Tournament renamed to "Alex Semin Invitational U18s"
