Jesus. Watched that whole game only to be majorly disappointed about a) women's sports and b) Canadians beating us.

Let's not be saying things that have a derogatory effect on my enjoyment of the NHL season/playoffs now!

I had a bad feeling after they missed that empty net. What a fucking choke job. They should be crying.

US Women should be embarrassed to blow that game. Also awful officiating hurt that game a bit, that slash on the US was horrible, then Wickenheiser should have obviously had a penalty shot on the breakaway. Instead they get a PP and the US had no shot anyways trying to kill off a 5 on 3 burnt out

Rask is out against Sweden. Lehtonen to start. Massive loss.

Wouldn't have been the upset Slovenia and Sweden would have been but still the Czech's are a fairly good hockey team. Anyways despite 3 huge injuries to Sweden I still have them winning in the AM and advancing to play the USA on Sunday. I think Canada's struggles finishing goals dooms them here, if it wasn't for Weber and Doughty they might have even less goals, just terrible goal output by the forwards on TC, especially considering their relatively weak competition
this isn't 1998 and Dominic Hasek doesn't play anymore.

Swedes are off to the gold medal game with a 2-1 win over Finland.

A lot of pressure on Quick early.

US defense has got to get better, the canucks are just pelting Quick with shots.

Canadian D playing well now. US needs something good to happen to wake them up and get them back into it.

Too much individualism entering the zone and a lack of dumping the puck is hurting us. You simply cannot fly by the best defense in the world

I will be shocked if the Parise and Kane line doesn't net at least one here tonight

Our offense sucks. No flow, no teamwork.
