From dominating Junior Hockey to now defeating team Canada on their own hostile turf (with plenty of boos raining down) in international men's competition, team USA has arrived! Sure TC has a bit more talent on the higher end, but team USA plays like a TEAM: Grit, determination, responsible two-way play, fighting spirit, physicality, not afraid to man up and set the tempo, MUCH better goaltending (a position Canada thinks doesn't matter), and plenty of skill to go with everything else.
Basically, team USA is playing playoff hockey while team Canada is still stuck in the regular season. I know many people won't want to admit it, but the results speak for themselves: Team USA is on top.
Canada has some soul searching to do if they want to be the greatest Hockey nation again.
