tbh, I think we may have awakened the giant with our first win. Our chances of beating Russia would have been tough with Ovechkin, Malkin, Kovalchuk, Semin, etc. and Canada absolutely ripped them apart. Our win over Finland was pretty convincing though. I think it should be a good game



That’s exactly what I’m worried about. I don’t think lightening will strike twice, but I’m hoping they prove me wrong. I just think Canada playing angry will be too much for the US to handle. Don’t forget that Canada was barraging Miller at the end of that game, and outshot the US by a ton. They were clearly the better team, we just got lucky.

A side note, I think some of you were entirely overreacting to the whole women’s hockey celebration. I mean it was stupid and they probably shouldn’t have done it, but saying that they should strip them of their medals? Please. They won those fair and square on the ice.
