I just caught a few minutes of the game in the coffee shop - looks like Hiller is playing the Americans the way he played Team Canada. Unreal.
Yup. Hiller can be a dominating force when he's in the zone.
Miller has been very good, as well. He hasn't been tested nearly as much, but he's looked very calm, composed, and confident. That kid is brimming with swagger after that Canada game. This looks to be a bit of a goaltending classic.
I might buy me a Miller U.S.A. jersey. I've always loved the guy's play, but hate the Sabres too much to buy their merch.
I feel like Hiller is definitely playing outstanding, but the guys in front of him are going to tire out this period after the hard fight yesterday they had. When the plays start becoming backdoor chances and such due to greater defensive lapses, the U.S. can take control on the scoreboards. Just need to keep the pressure up.
When I teach, I'm gonna let my students watch the games
They used to let us do that (way back when), for huge games. Canada/Russia in 1972 - the entire school watched the game in various classrooms, and were allowed to stay after school to watch the end of the game. It was one of the very few times I stayed after school voluntarily that didn't involve playing a sport or practice.

My school was strict about that stuff. But what the school doesn't know, won't hurt.
I want to be known for being a big Flyer/hockey fan in my classroom.

I have a friend who teaches, and his students know he's a Sens fan (yeah, I know). He has a few of the weaker students in history adding references to the Sens in essays and whatnot - it's hilarious!

What does he teach?
Maybe I'll give them extra credit, if they give me who scored for the Flyers the night before
