Thanks to the Canadian fans in this thread for being classy.

o.k talk later ladies and gentlemen, it's off to construct the new world order.

Time to put my machiavellian hat on.

I was looking for that quote but couldn't find it.

Ha, ha.

U.S. coach needs a hair cut.

...off to construct the new world order.

Good luck !

Watching the whole game would have given you a different viewpoint.

I'll watch a replay. Watching Niagara- Kitchener preseason game.

 

[ORRFForever]

I bet Knight cleans up nice.

I can enjoy a U.S. / Canada's women's game in a way I cannot for the men - I feel more relaxed.

Some good looking ladies on the Canadian team, but more importantly some damm good players.

Well done. Olympic Gold and World Championship Gold.

I'll never forget the 2012 Women's World Championship held in Vermont.

In the preliminary round the US beat Canada 9-2.

In the Gold medal game Canada beat the US 5-4 in overtime.

I'm straight, but Hilary Knight is gorgeous if we're going to go there.

When teams are this evenly matched, it is so hard to win back to back.

If it was a 7 game series, it would go 7.

Yes, she is very pretty.

I’m pretty sure that’s exactly the look he’s going for.

I was feeling so good before that year's final. Boy did I ever eat crow afterwards.

I agree and would love to see it. Though, my nerves might not like it. lol

Nice of the Americans to stick around for the closing remarks. That anthem singing must have been too sweet.

I just wish there were more competitive teams. It REALLY hurts the women's game when you KNOW who will be in the GMG.

This happens every single world Juniors. Some underdog team beats a contender in round robin and everyone declares the contender DOA.lol.

Or NHL... Winning in regular season and winning a cup are two different things.

I just wish there were more competitive teams. It REALLY hurts the women's game when you KNOW who will be in the GMG.

Agreed ... Semis were not even close.

North America 18
Czechs and swiss 3

There was that one time the US didn’t make the final.

 

[ORRFForever]

True but.... Would you bet your last $100 on it NOT being a Can/US final?

I wouldn't.

It's crazy. I don't know why the gap has not closed (more than it has).

 

[HabSgt]

Canada's women prove yet again that they are all too good for me

It’s technically only been a little over one full generation since women’s hockey really started catching on.

Think of how long it takes for children to grow into adult hockey players, and then realize most countries were literally starting from zero.

What we’re watching is literally the first/second generation of female hockey players from some of these countries.

I have this theory that Canada is pulling away in both men's and women's hockey. Things are damn good for the Canucks lately.

I hope you're right.

That's true but I wish it would happen more quickly - it really hurts the women's game.

 

[Czechboy]

Only 1 Canuck on all star team?

I hope you're right.

There is no way to speed up time unfortunately (that we know of).

But some promising signs. Peslarova is probably one of the two best goalies in the world.
