I vote we play Campbell from now on. Lee can have the Latvia game I guess.

Agreed. His positioning and rebound control just seems much better than Lee's.

Oh okay, I thought he sounded extremely familiar. I thought he was a soccer only guy, never knew about the hockey.

He's most famous for doing soccer on ESPN, but he's also the play by play man for the Atlanta Thrashers on Sport South.

Is the Swiss team really this good or is the US just not playing well?

I'm stuck without the NHL network so I have had to rely on live stats...ugh

The US are outshooting/outplaying them pretty decently (especially in the 2nd period), but the Swiss goalie has played very well.

Campbell is the real deal. Another period like these first two, and I would hope that's good enough for him to get the start against Latvia. Also, Kreider has really impressed me. Not only is he lightning fast, but he's not afraid to go into the dirty areas.

They certainly look better than the Slovaks. They did not play yesterday, though, so I'm not sure how much of that is a factor.

Ah okay. Thanks. I guess it's not JP that I dislike, it just seems for soccer he always seems to get paired with an idiot.

Harkes? I know a lot of people dislike him, but I kinda like him.

Great news for Rangers fans!

Now if only we still had Chery

Re: US Junior Team cuts

The Swiss weren't supposed to be as good as the Slovaks, but they've looked pretty solid. The first period was scary, but the US really carried the play in the second. Overall, not a bad US performance so far given that they played yesterday.

Nice going Johnson.
Shoot the puck when you are 1 foot in front of the goalie all alone.

Re: US Junior Team cuts

8min left in 3rd.
Still 1-0 US

Re: US Junior Team cuts

Will the US players ever figure out the Swiss goalie catches with his right hand?

Finally beat him - 2-0.

Re: US Junior Team cuts

It would be nice if someone from Justintv would pick up the feed from NHL.com. They show a lot of NHL games.

And DONOvan scores!
