  • IIHF World Championships

    The senior circuit got underway today in Minsk, Belarus.

    USA just downed the host 6-1. In other action the Russians crushed the Swiss 5-0, Czech Republic beat Slovakia in OT, and the biggest surprise of the day, France beat Canada in a shootout.

    All USA games are on NBCSN, and they occasionally show other games.

    Well that's good news to see the US win. Belarus is not great but host teams can always be a tough game. Tough group for the US with Finland, Switzerland, and Russia.

      Tim Thomas was in net for the US in case anyone is wondering.

        Clarkson's David Leggio is the backup. I do hope he gets to bust out the Pierre impersonation.

          Jeez Canada, hasn't it already been settled that Ben Scrivens is a better goalie than James Reimer?

            It would be nice.

            I noticed the Goaltending cupboard was a little bare with Quick, Miller, Howard, Gibson, and Bishop's teams in the playoffs (as well as Bishop being injuried). Thomas as well but Thomas was a backup.

                US beats Switzerland 3-2 with the Swiss having two goals called back for offside. Classy crowd in Belarus whistles during the US Anthem.

                    Yeah no kidding. Trouba had the best reply:

                    Never been booed during the national anthem. It's not our fault we had good gaps and forced them offsides. #USA

                        They've discussed willingly reuniting with Russia not that long ago. Putin can have 'em.

                          I don't think they enjoyed the last time they rolled with Soviet Union. They were pretty quick to throw them off when things broke up in 91.

                              To be fair, Russia's less than full strength squad still has a lot more Olympic players than the USA's.

                              And a rare 3 on 0 gives Russian an easy goal to make it 6-1 near the end of the 2nd.
