Saturday's Dump & Chase: T.J. Oshie…Captain America!

Wow, what a game, right? The Best Team won, Putin was there to see it, and Top Preds Prospect Alexander Radulov took two penalties that lead to power play goals. Good times. Team USA is back on the ice against some country early tomorrow morning for the last game of the opening round. Gold Medal here we come!
