    He should have at least had an assist yesterday on a beautiful set-up to a wide open Brock Nelson who somehow missed a wide open net from point blank range.

      If he does play his legs should be fresh! (although he did give a strong effort in the Wild's final loss).

          The announcers meantioned several times in the last two games that the U.S. had an open roster spot available and wondered if it would be filled.

            Should clarify (and I've fixed the roster on the 1st post) that Coyle steps in for Matteau on the roster - I think that's the open space - but that in terms of the lineup, he'll probably replace Moses at this point, who is injured.

              1-0 victory against Denmark far from impressive.
              Hopefully TeamUSA doesn't let Slovenia get its first tournament point tomorrow.

                Mike has excellent full ice vision and some of his stunning setup passes are amazing. He's been sitting back though much more than he usually did last season. I think it was the Belarus game, the announcer committed the ultimate faux pas: "And Mike Reilly from the University of Michigan retrieves the puck". Another guy never did get Tory Krug's name right. It's "Kroog" and does not rhyme with "drug." It's German.

                UPDATE:

                With Russia pounding Belarus 7-0, and Finland winning 3-0 over Slovakia there's a three way tie for 1st with Russia, Finland and USA all at the top of Group B with 12 points. If the preliminaries ended today USA would land in 1st on the first tiebreaker, head-to-head. And with two games left before the quarterfinals, USA has the lighter schedule (if we can score some goals, we've dropped to 7th out of 16 in GF).

                USA
                *Slovenia - Sunday, May 10, 10:15AM EDT
                *Slovakia - Tuesday, May 12, 10:15AM EDT

                Russia
                *Slovakia - Sunday, May 10, 2:15AM EDT
                *Finland - Tuesday, May 12, 2:15AM EDT

                Finland
                *Belarus - Monday, May 11, 10:15AM EDT
                *Russia - Tuesday, May 12, 2:15AM EDT

                  So if the U.S. wins their final two preliminary games they will get the No. 1 seed in Group B, now matter what Russia and Finland do? And if that should come to pass (i.e. they score some goals as you say) how is it then determined which team gets the overall No. 1 seed in the Quarterfinals? (assume the USA and the No. 1 seed in Group A have the same record in the prelims).

                          Slovenia needs at least a pt. to avoid relegation.

                              Brock Nelson scores...1-0 USA. Mike Reilly gets the assist on a nice pass in front from behind the net.
