Historic win for Germany

GELSENKIRCHEN, Germany – What a way to start the 2010 World Championship for the host country. With a loud and boisterous world record crowd of 77, 803 looking on at Veletins Arena, Felix Schutz tipped a shot into the USA net 21 seconds into overtime to give to Germany a 2-1 victory in the opening game of the International Ice Hockey Federation’s annual showcase event on Friday. “It felt more like a World Cup soccer game than a hockey game,” said Sven Butenschon. “When you hear the roar of 80,000 people, it is a different noise.” “It was trying to yell to my linemates but they could not hear me,” added USA forward TJ Oshie.

It was the first time Germany defeated the United States in a World Championship game in 17 years, a 6-3 win at Dortmund in the 1993 tourney. The game had anything and everything the flag-waving fans who packed the home stadium of the fabled football team Schalke 04 could have asked for. First of all, Germany tuned in a solid effort in preventing the USA from extending its streak to six straight victories in the opening game of the world championship. Organizers were hoping to break the old record of 74,554 spectators, set in a 2001 game between Michigan State University and the University of Michigan, and they did just that, and more.

The history-making audience also broke the World Championship record attendance of 55,000 spectators, set in the 1957 world tournament in Moscow when the deciding game between the Soviets and Sweden was played in the Lenin Stadium (now: Luzhniki Stadium). There was even a marriage proposal flashed across the big screen in the first intermission, with the bride-to-be beaming with joy in the stands as she said yes. The Germans are known as a team that stresses defence over offence but had more scoring chances than their opponents and capitalized on a smart play to open the scoring.

Germany was pressuring the USA when forward Marcel Muller won a race to a loose puck in the corner to the right of goaltender Scott Clemmensen. Muller sent a cross-crease pass to Michael Wolf, who was hovering about one meter off the lip of the crease to Clemmensen’s left, and all Clemmensen could do was watch as Wolf ripped a wrist shot into a wide open net. German goalie Dennis Endras turned in a solid effort. “Their goalie was phenomenal,” said defencmen Jack Johnson. Endras was quick to close his legs and prevent a snap shot by Nick Foligno midway through the first period. Then early in the second period, Endras kicked out a low shot by TJ Galiardi, and the crowd chanted “Deutschland, Deutschland.”

“You feed off that,” said German defencman Nicolai Goc. Endras wasn’t at fault when Ryan Carter jammed a rebound into the net at 8:28 of the third period. Carter banged at a loose puck in the crease and it came to a stop across the goal line after the puck deflected off the goalie’s right pad. Schutz then sent the fans home with a smile on their face. “It was an amazing way to end the game. We could have not asked for more,” said Goc. Playing in front of a record crowd was nothing new for two members of the USA team, Eric Nystrom and David Moss, both played their first collegiate game in the match that determined the previous world record.

Not for long they weren't.  Apparently Stamkos left the game early in today's loss again SUI.

Our team sucked against Denmark but they've been looking better and better in every game. I don't think we have a chance against Russia or Canada but this team still has potential to go far  :finland:

Damn Finland is lucky :angry: Not only first today we play against Russia but after that there's like 80% chance that the next opponent will be Canada. Because it goes like this: If czech wins canada and sweden loses to swizerland then we get sweden. If czech wins canada and sweden wins switzerland we get czech. So, you can guess the rest... propably none of that is going to happen....
That is the situation if Finland loses to Russia (which it propably will). Although the situation will be different if we win but I really can't believe in it

Finland loses, Sweden wins. Oh what a sad day. OH THE HUMANITY.

Well, the Czech deserved it, kinda surprised we made it even this far with such lousy goal scoring.

Varlamov was a beast today, hell of a show.  At least Tavares got a goal in on him, or did he score both?  Not that it matters.  I'm thinking Russia is gonna take this bitch all the way, with its angry 14 Olympians.
