Jessi Pierce

It's Judd's Hockey Show.

Welcome into a live version of Judd's Hockey Show, a post-Olympic game, US 5, Germany 1.

The pool play is done.

It is, of course, Judd.

It is Jesse Pierce, ordinarily joins us on Wednesdays, but always welcome because she brings a lot when it comes to the...

the United States hockey program, including these glasses, which are absolutely fantastic.

I expect that you're going to do the show with those on.

Talk about rose-colored glasses and, of course, A.J.

Fredrickson as well.

And so the preliminary stuff is done now.

The U.S.

beat, what, Latvia in the first game, Denmark on Saturday, and then Germany today.

The grouping works like this if you don't know and you're curious.

So...

On Tuesday, we're going to have four games.

So four teams were seeded and get by through the first round.

The first round will feature a game between Sweden and Latvia, the seven and ten seeds now.

The winner of that game, because Sweden had a bad tournament, will play the U.S.

then in the quarterfinal.

So, Jesse, we'll start with you.
