Is the key to scoring still shooting the f'n puck?

That would definitely help us

This game looks like it should be 6-0 Canada.

Seems like Kessel is the only one that came to play on offense today.

Seems like the USA passing is off ... not crisp, etc.

Hockey is very frustrating, isn't it?

Slugfest .... boom .... boom .... over hand right .... boom boom .... left hook. Canada played the defense that won the game. USA was one and done so many times.

Well, that's the end of my Winter Olympics. * Let's go Nats !!

* Maybe 4 man sled.

Who was it (Olczyk?) who predicted that there would be a zillion goals in this game? Guess not.

HalfSmokes · « **Reply #314 on:** February 21, 2014, 02:42:47 pm »

I hope every Canadian NHL team goes winless the rest of the year and the Blue Jays lose 100.

Natsinpwc · « **Reply #316 on:** February 21, 2014, 03:30:59 pm »

Should be a great final Sunday. I will be watching that even without the USA.

ESPN, TBS, and FOX like your thinking

Quick was outstanding

Canada simply out worked the US and were the better team, technically.

Ali the Baseball Cat · « **Reply #319 on:** February 21, 2014, 06:25:33 pm »

That was a really good game...end to end rushes, tight cycling, just all around nice.

What I posted to a fellow distraught American hockey fan:

Just because we lost to canada doesn't mean this wasn't an awesome Olympics. In 2010, we were pretty huge underdogs compared to Sweden and Canada. Getting Silver was a major accomplishment. This year we were more equal, but Canada is still a way, way better team on paper. But look at this team. It's almost all young, up-and-coming talent. And we still went toe-to-toe with Canada and beat Russia. Four years from now pretty much the entire team will be back, and most will be entering or in their prime. Patrick Kane will be 29! Add in guys like Seth Jones, Chris Kreider and the slew of American talent entering the NHL and you have a roster that could beat Canada. Losing today was devastating, but the fact that we are where we are is proof that 2010 wasn't a fluky run carried by a goaltender. USA hockey is an emerging giant, and it hasn't even come close to it's full potential. 2014 is going to be one of those years we look back on and say, "this is when things really got going."
