It was a good game after all. Congrats to USA, they were the better team.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

he has to put together a roster of players who do not play together regularly. The last thing on his mind is who has a good shoot out percentage good God. Also what coach is playing to get to a shoot out? None.

Are you actually being serious? We lost the gold medal last year in a shootout. If they didn't think it was worth even looking at how our players perform in the shootout they should all be fired

 

[SabresSharks]

Arguably the greatest win in hockey history.

Oops, sorry. Miracle On Ice. My bad.

 

[jetsforever]

Awful conditions, disappointing loss
Round robin round though so it doesn't matter much

 

[cupcrazyman]

Canada hearing the Star Spangled Banner played a lot at the end of WJC games.

Only because TSN covers every game.

 

[bsu]

Good thing USA seniors are pretty bad

Says the guy with an american in his avatar..... lmao

USA 2 goal comeback and shootout victory. USA really good or Canada cocky?

U.S came out to play in the 3rd and we refused to match them, we got the deer in the headlight look in our game and stopped competing hard enough to match their compete and started losing all the little battles.

Very frustrating mental game from us in the third, and that is all it was.............mental.

Canada ducked hard this game, but idk what he's talking about. We need teams to **** the bed, but a team that lost to Slovakia doesn't? K

sorry I didn't read this post, don't mind my first post.

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

Very undisciplined play by Canadians. I blame this on Comtois and Formention.

 

[North Cole]

If we meet in the gold medal game and it goes to a shootout does Canada pull Hart?

[Captain Bowie]

Canada has been thinning at talent for years. US can be a better hockey country in 10-15 yeasr @2525

I mean, I suppose it's possible. I don't see it happening in that short of a time frame though.

 

[Hagstrom]

I guess they don't have shootouts in the WHL

 

[OilerPensfan97]

US did beat Canada in the Olympics back in 2010.

 

[Critical13]

This game should not count, it's not fair to play the game in these conditions.

Let's all take a minute to enjoy this post

 

[Leafs27]

WTF was that Comtois hit from behind? Just embarrassing.

 

[Xokkeu]

I would rather see a team win because of poor ice conditions on a knuckle puck then a stupid shootout

I would rather see this game end

 

[Get North]

Game only took 4 hours.

 

[FlyTimmo]

Lol at people blaming Hart. Two goals were caused by total defensive lapses.

 

[PatrickEaves]

Canada's defense is atrocious

Half the defense is the same as last year when they had to play Chabot every other shift because everyone else was getting run over.

 

[Teezax]

Congrats to the US, better team won the game. With that being said, can we stop already with these outdoor games? THE ICE IS ALWAYS TERRIBLE, THE CONDITIONS ARE ALWAYS SHIT, AND THEIR ARE WAY TOO MANY BREAKS. The novelty wore off years ago.

 

[islesfan3913]

I don’t want to hear about how bad American fans are after how obnoxious and cocky Canadian fan have been, especially after going up 3-1.

 

[LetsGoBLUES91]

Fun game to watch but the ice conditions certainly were a factor. Anyway good win and comeback for the US

I honestly can't believe it. I didn't realize it was such a hostile subject.

USA is getting better. It's damn close. It's great for the game.

 

[Melrose Munch]

I mean, I suppose it's possible. I don't see it happening in that short of a time frame though.

I think so. I've notice the lack offensive impact players for a while now. I'm not saying be Crosby or even PK but will I be able to look back in 5 years and say this and that player is making an impact in the NHL? Probably not.

 

[SackTastic]

Hoping for a round 2 inside.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Firstly, the US deserves a lot of credit, they never gave up and they earned this victory 100%.

Any complaints about the conditions are not relevant IMO, seeing as the US had to play under the same conditions.

That being said, Canada needs need to stop taking so many penalties. This seems to be an issue for the team every year. Lots of lazy, unnecessary penalties due to lack of discipline. They even got away with some stuff that could've been easily called a penalty.

Carter Hart wasn't a problem per se, but with how much TSN keeps worshiping him, you'd expect a better performance from him.
