On the 2nd and 3rd Canadian goals, team USA has no one to blame but themselves. The 2nd goal (when Canada pulled the goalie), team USA started chasing the puck and stopped playing good solid defense. On the goal in OT while Canada was on the power play team USA played terrible defense. Canada was passing the puck around the perimeter and collapsing in. Team USA just allowed them to do so by continuing to back up and allow passing lanes for the Canadians. When the goal was scored, almost all nine skaters (if not all) were below the face off dots and between them. Team USA did nothing to step up and challenge the Canadians at the end of that power play. Very poorly played.
folks can laugh at curling all they want, but i'd like to point out that every member of Canada's mens' team has a smokin' hot wife. ergo, curling is a stud's sport.discuss.
If the US ends up facing the Swedes in the Hockey final I will root for the Swedes. Niklas Backstrom deserves a gold.
