Easiest victory ever

Don is bang on about Hull, Modano, and Roenick jumping on USA for playing poorly. What if Lemieux, Gretzky, and Orr were jumping on Canada for a poor game? If those 3 are trashing the team then the players have basically no back-up. The players played bad against Europe but it doesn't mean you should be jumping all over them like the rest of the world, everybody else is jumping on them, why would great American players join in on that?

USA out, too bad. They could've went further with this roster, it isn't just poor selection but poor compete level. All of the USA and Canada players are sort of on the same level in terms of fundamentals. They all know how to skate, pass well, shoot the puck, win puck battles, etc.

Not a single forward scored a goal in the two games.Kane had an assist, thats it.

 

[Frank the Tank]

What happened to the core of this team that battled back in Vancouver 2010 (and had plenty of great WJC battles the years previous)? Pretty pathetic effort by that same group tonight. Maybe 6 years of losing to Canada has mentally broke them.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Bye Felicia.

I think Canada just beat a horse to death.

You think the players watch the intermission shows? lol

Canada put it in cruise control after taking the 3 goal lead. Not a terribly entertaining game after that.

 

[Ezekial]

Proud to be an American

USA Hockey deserves this result for disrespecting PHIL KESSEL.

Tortorella post game talk: "We didn't have enough grit, if they'd allowed me to call up sean avery we could have made something of it"

 

[BMOK33]

I'm not sure why the USA/Czech game doesn't just get axed at this point since it doesn't matter

 

[BruinsBtn]

Getzlaf, Doughty, Burns, Tavares and Duchesne were outstanding.

Kane and Carlson were good for USA. Shoulda went with Schneider.

Had to have that grit

 

[KBobs]

The US will be scary good the next best on best tournament. I'm sure this is Team USA's version of what Hockey Canada went through following Torino.

Did he really say that?

 

[EveryDay]

Canada's defence was amazing(maybe not JBo) and Price was dominant.

Getzlaf and Tavares were crazy good!!!!

 

[Channelcat]

I think Canada just beat a horse to death.

you mean just beat a dead horse to death.

That's... ummm... okay? They played like trash. Why do they deserve back up?

 

[SorryForMyEnglish*]

Bye bye USA. We won't miss you.
