Tampa Bay Lightning absolutely SLAUGHTERS the Penguins in today's early game 8-2. What a trouncing.
In other news there was the USA vs CAN semi-final at the IIHF Under-18 World Hockey Tournament in Germany today.
USA was up 4-2 late in the 3rd when Canada pulled their goalie and scored making it 4-3. Okay, no biggie, right? Well, the USA took a penalty with just over 2 mins left in the game, team Canada again pulls their goalie making it a six-on-four scenario, and with just over a minute to go in the game THEY SCORE and tie it up 4-4.
It really looked as though Canada was going to pull it off, but a few minutes into the four-on-four ten minute OT period, after a couple of really good scoring chances for Canada the USA scored on their next rush down the ice (nice looking goal btw) and won it 5-4.
USA will play for Gold, against Sweden I believe.
Great game though. Some of these kids will be among the next wave of NHL recruits in the next few years.
