    Quick was on his head. Canada sticks on our offensive zone kept us at bay. Glad it wasn't Crosby who scored.

    This means i have to get up at 4AM on Sunday, lol. Recording it isn't an option because everyone in my neighborhood loves air horns! All major hockey games have to be watched live. I can't even pause them to go get a snack. It's kind of ridiculous, lol.

    Well fuck. That sucked. The pace of that game was insane. U.S couldn't get any sustained offensive pressure. It was one chance and the puck was immediately back to the neutral zone. Canada is tough...hard to see them losing to Sweden.

    Sweden is clearly the underdog, a much smaller country than Canada..(we have a population of only 9 million)

    Epic game. The score was flattering to the American team.

    Quick is one hell of a net minder(Price is better but I'm biased) he is the main reason the score was that low. It was a great game to watch, a little sad that wasn't the gold metal game as it would have been a great one.

    the better team definitely proved out. The Blueline and puck possession were just suffocating.

    USA is closing the gap though. I thought they were more competitive with Canada this game than 2002 and 2010 (excluding Canada'a stinker of a game in RR of '10).

    When I was a kid, the US would be 7th or 8th in things like the olympics and WJCs. Now we are a regular medal contender.

    Probably rooting for Canada vs the Swedes.
