Xander Green wins the draw for Great Britain and we are underway!

Great Britain taking it easy in the early going, passing the puck from D to D, waiting for the Irish forecheck to committ and give them an opening.

Bergen has it in the neutral zone and finds Green. Green dumps it in, but its an icing call and we'll have a faceoff.

LOT of jawjacking and pushing around going on early, New Orleans teammates Fletcher and Augustus seem to be exchanging heated words with the rival British forwards, and the ref is trying to keep things under control here. We aren't even 30 seconds in folks! This could get chippy.......
