Wooly’s Nightmare

Oh, the humanity!

US 4 - 1 Kazakhstan

The US bounced back from yesterday’s less than impressive display against Latvia with a good performance against Kazakhstan.

Two first period power-play goals by Brian Rolston and Brian Gionta along with an even-strength score by Bill Guerin made it 3-0 after twenty minutes.

Mike Modano made it 4-1 at 11:53 of the third, 51 seconds after Yevgeniy Koreshkov scored for Kazakhstan on its first third-period shot.

Rick DiPietro of the Islanders started in net today for the US, and only faced 11 shots, turning away 10.

This weekend sees two games for the US; Saturday @ Noon against Slovakia and Sunday @ 10:30 AM against Sweden. Both games are going to be televised on NBC.

My Brain Hurts!

US 3 - 3 Latvia

While they’re certainly not favored to make much noise in the Olympic tournament, the US got off to an underwhelming start, having to score late to tie minnows Latvia 3-3 in their first match this afternoon.

The US got goals from Craig Conroy, Jordan Leopold, and Brian Gionta, while Tampa Bay’s John Grahame started in net for the Americans.

The tournament continues tomorrow when the US takes on Kazakhstan at 3PM ET. The game is being televised live from Turin on the USA Network.

Liverpool 1 - 0 Arsenal

Arsenal lose yet again. Mike bangs head against the wall.

Happy Valentine’s Day.

SNOW!

The first big snowfall of 2006 hit last night, turning Chillmington into a winter wonderland.
