They're expecting 40,000 people.

Looks better now that the game has started but I will be curious to hear the number (even though it'll likely be inflated)

3-1 Canada after two. But the conditions are pretty terrible with snow. That's not an excuse, because the conditions are the same for both. And Canada has adapted better, and their PP worked well in the 1st.
USA has maybe controlled the play a bit more (especially in the 2nd), but it's pretty even. And their play looks pretty chaotic. They only managed to score on a 5-on-3.
You'd think just simply shooting the puck a lot would generate goals - the goalies can hardly see anything from the snow. But it hasn't worked for the Americans so far.

What a fucking joke...jey...snow and cold in buffalo.in winter...fucking idiotic. Totally-another gimmick all for the optics at the sake of better quality hockey. Can almost bank on a fluke goal winning this thing.

Nah, it's fun. Almost like how I play hockey.
But why are those idiots piling up the snow on the ice and then shoveling it on fucking wheelbarrows?
Just open the rink door and push it all straight out. Much easier. It's almost as if they've never cleaned an outdoor rink before.
Edit: shootout. Cleaning the ice still takes forever despite there being a small army of crew.

They interviewed Scott Nichol in the second intermission of the Finland - Slovakia game. Brought back some bad memories of bad times.
So why would they interview Scott Nichol on a Finnish broadcast anyway? Because he's some sort of a talent scout / director for the Predators, and they've drafted the hottest Finnish prospect Eeli Tolvanen.
