I have previously mocked Robert Esche, but he has been solid in goal for the US of A. And thank God the US offense finally showed up -- Tkachuk was a machine. His third goal was a thing of beauty set up by Modano and a delightful pass from Bill Guerin.
Tonight's game between Oh, Canada! and Slovakia should be fun. One has to get one's hockey fix while one can, what with the whole no NHL next year thing looming.

I was in Canada last week, soaking it all up, sts. Got my fix. I hope it lasts. Watched Canada/US, Canada/Slovakia, Canada/Russia, US/Russia, parts of Sweden/Czech, parts of Finland/Germany, parts of something else that I can't remember. And many SportsCentre (tm) that played endless loops of various highlights as well as interviews with everyone imaginable. How I love my country and its hockey offerings.
