IIHF May 14/15 Games Summary

Hello again! Have a couple of games for us to review from the middle of the week.

USA vs NOR
What a nail-biter of a game! I thought USA was going to pull a clean victory in this one as they were 5-3 going into the 3rd period, but Norway was not going down without a fight. They came back from two goals down to tie it up to push it to Overtime. A very unfortunate outcome for USA as they really needed all 3 of those game points. Thankfully, they came back to win it in overtime from Thompson with the assist going to Cooley and Keller. Seeing these three players on a line together throughout this event, especially on OT, has been great. I doubt it would ever happen, but grabbing Tage from Buffalo would be an amazing buy for GMBA. As for our player's performance in this game, I would say they all did fairly well! Keller had 3 points, including a goal assisted by Cooley. Cooley ended up with 2 points, both participated with Keller in some way. Kesselring had a bit tougher of a time in this one, including a few painful mistakes, but he managed to still stay +1.

• Keller: 1/2/3 | 5 SOG | -2
• Cooley: 0/2/2 | 0 SOG | -2
• Doan: 0/0/0 | 1 SOG | +0
• Kesselring: 0/0/0 | 0 SOG | +1

CAN vs AUT
Canada continuing to show their dominance in this event, coming away with a 5-1 win against Norway! Even though Hayton got a 2 minute for Delay of Game, he still managed to stay positive and get some offensive generation. So much good talent in this event, I love seeing the speed and competitiveness.

• Hayton: 0/0/0 | 4 SOG | +1
