Slovakia rides a huge third period to stave off a determined Slovenian bunch, while the USA makes a big statement against the host Russians. Shutouts for Sweden and the Czechs.

10 powerplays for the Czechs? What the hell.

[Calgary.Flames]

Awful special teams!

[Montreal Canadiens]

I'm not sure I agree with that.

[Parker]

If Russia had some chippy players like Kartayev and Namestnikov, maybe they would've competed in that game.

[Singin the BLUES]

Very very good game by the USA players. Nice to shut down the host team, and even better to shut the out big time
