I'm going to go with a 4-1 USA victory. Shouldn't be much trouble here.

All I can think of looking at the Norwegian roster is ...
A Møøse once bit my sister ...
No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist", "Fillings of Passion", "The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink".

This is a game for the US to work out some kinks and get things ready for the big game on Sunday.

Shorthanded to boot. Shows we still have a ways to go if we want to compete for Gold....

Well, certainly poured it on in the end. The final result isn't indicative of the game, unfortunately.

True, this team was horrible in the 2nd and most of the 3rd.

A win is a win but from how it sounds, more work needs to be done before Sunday. Good to see Rafalski get a couple of goals though. Ron Wilson better get them to limit the turnovers and play a full 60 minutes before the medal round begins or it may be a short trip.
