[image] Today's quarterfinal action at the Worlds was fast and furious, and for the Caps contingent, quite fruitful. Highlights from the four games include: * Sami Lepisto scored the overtime game-winning goal to bounce the Americans from the tourney. * Alex Ovechkin , Alex Semin and Sergei Fedorov each scored in Russia's 6-0 route of Switzerland . * Nicklas Backstrom had a helper in Sweden's win over the Czech Republic . * Mike Green had a pair of assists in Canada's romp over Norway . The Caps now have five of the tournament's top 25 scorers (PDF), and with Russia/Finland and Sweden/Canada set for the semis, all six of the Caps named above are still flying high. [image]

Get Back - Team USA Gets Knocked Out of Tournament
Published 5/15/2008 by Bubba at Canes Country
Team Finland beat Team USA in the quarterfinals of the World Championships last night, 3-2, sending the Americans back home a bit sooner than they had hoped. Tuomo Ruutu scored the first goal of the contest and has 4 so far in the tournament. USA was down by two goals in the 3rd period, but caught up to tie the game forcing it into over-time. Finland scored the deciding tally though, putting them into the semi-finals against Russia. The good news is that Tim Gleason returned to action and apparently is no worse for wear. In other action, Team Canada beat Team Norway 8-2, and will meet Sweden in the other semi’s. Cam Ward picked up the win in net for the Canadians. ...

US done at World Championships
Published 5/15/2008 by Eric at 3rd Man In
Going into last night’s match with Finland, the United States had never beaten the Finns in an elimination game at the World Championships or Olympics. Never. The game changed nothing. Trailing 2-0 late in the 3rd period, the US rallied to tie it on goals by Phil Kessel and our boy Drew Stafford. It’s a really disappointing end for the US team, which seemed to struggle with goaltending throughout ...
