Good thing, too. Because had they turned over the puck, that’s pretty much a guaranteed 3 on 0 breakaway for Knight to deal with.

BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!
At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
Huge period coming up here with a win the US is a lock for, at least, second. With a loss they’re headed for Sweden or Finland in the quarters (most likely)...
At least the US got the extra day of rest and that’s an early start time at 6:30am eastern/12:30pm local time.
So they’ll have to go through a path of likely Finland, likely Sweden and then either Russia/Canada/Switzerland baring an upset. Not going to be an easy path for sure.
EDIT: times were incorrect initially. US will play at 11:30 a.m. eastern on Thursday.
Russia is first into the semis with 3-1 win over the Switzerland in a seeding "upset", but I think you'd be hard pressed to say Russia wasn't the favorite in that game. Winner plays the Canada/Slovakia winner, Canada leads 1-0 late in the first and the Canadians have lost Foote with a major penalty for the rest of the game and potentially the semifinals?
