Kinda sweet watching hockey over my morning joe. Even more so with USA up 7-2 in the second.
@SmittysRant
well down go the Finns. So much for that.

Nice to see the Americans finally break out and get me a few pts today. Ugh.
I owned 3 FINs. Good chance most of us had the same FINs

Without the Finns, my chances to win are dashed.
How to lose this hockey pool in 10 easy steps:
1- You take Yakupov as your captain instead of RNH.
2- You take a player from Latvia, and that guy isn’t even playing.
3- You select Nathan MacKinnon
4- You take Seth Jones.
5- You don’t take the team Canada goaltending, instead opt for the US goalie
6- You take Radek Faksa
7- You take Olli Maatta
8- You don’t take Ryan Strome.
9- You think too much about the defence, and take Hamilton and Murphy, instead of Canadian forwards
10- You take J.T. Miller.
Probably not a coincidence, I've done all 10 of these.

A lot of offense today, should be interesting to see how it affects the standings.
Same here - I have Gaudreau so happy with his production today. I've been hovering between 10-15 for much of the week but slipped down to the 20s yesterday. I'd be happy with a top 20 finish, but I wouldn't complain about if I end up no worse than now. Wasn't expecting much going into it.
