That US player either said "Taberbac", or "**** me man"

What a boring game.

Still pleeeeeennnnnnty of time for an undisciplined meltdown.

By *either* team.

Heave Away!

Canada's goal was in the 1st min of 2nd period.

Missed the first 5 mins of the 2nd. 

2-2 game now. 

There was a breakaway and an 2-on-1 from the replays.

Not WJHC specific, but this is interesting.

I wonder if play-by-play use this to know the players on the ice. Maybe a version that has no advertising overlay, but does have player names/numbers on one of their displays and also a display without the extra information for replays and such. 

I was wondering how they now all the player's names for a WJ team they don't see regularly.  Even for NHL teams you can't possibly know all the players at a quick glance during a fast paced game.  It's better than the Bob Cole "The Ottawa goalie", or "the Ottawa defenseman".

I have some insight for WJC, a friend used to prepare the document packs for the TSN broadcast team. (Look at the binders that Duthie and Bob McK have on the desk at intermission.)

They *might* have some kind of overlay but mostly they really do just study the rosters like cramming for a college final. They get most of the rosters shortly before the start of the tourney, all if they're lucky but there's usually some last-minute changes.

That's old school cramming for sure. I wonder if with technology now if some use the overlay of player numbers as you don't see player numbers from all the angles.  

USA hit a post

then make it 2-0 later in the play.

Puck drop

 

Team USA has a player named Jimmy Snuggerud, son of former NHL player Dave Snuggerud, who only played 265 NHL games, but it's a memorable name.

 Especially because it sounds like a premium version of a snuggie...Snuggaroo!

 2nd cousin of Polkaroo.
