IceCap Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Well they really snatched defeat from the jaws of victory in that one. Oh well, at least we eliminated the Yanks on their home ice. Congrats Russia, you earned it.

NEW.ERA Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I've seen too many of these type of collapses, Canada stopped skating and got maybe a couple quality shots on Bobkov.Never take the skate off the throat in a game of this stature especially when your playing the Canada of Europe when it comes to hockey.

Magnus Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I was not happy, but it was not as big a deal for me for some reason. I guess because they will probably have just as good a chance next time.It's not the Stanley Cup Finals. This team makes this final practically every year.

oddball Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 As Kings fan, the prospect picked up a gold, silver, and bronze. As a fan of USA hockey, I'm pissed and upset. Bronze is not good at all. Don't friggin' sugarcoat it. When it came down to crunchtime, they couldn't get it done... again. Typical USA hockey, up and down results. They need to pick a coaching staff full-time for USA hockey. I'm just sitting here wondering and concerned about our neighbors to the north... I haven't heard from many of them. Was there mass suicide last night?

nash61 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 According to the news reports here, several of them had to be "carried onto the bus" they were so drunk!

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

I'm just sitting here wondering and concerned about our neighbors to the north... I haven't heard from many of them. Was there mass suicide last night?Sorry, but I can't disagree more. The US only lost one game (more on that in a minute) in the entire tourney, won its pool and medaled in back-to-back years for the first time in history. Say all you want about the number of guys they had back, they were missing John Carlson and Cam Fowler at Defense (not that they were elegible, just that they were dominant in 2010), and that may have been the difference this year against Canada. And speaking of Canada - the US underestimated how upset the Canadians were about losing last year at home. Was it an embarassing performance? Maybe, but it was one game, and the US could have folded up shop, skated off with back-to-back losses and no medal at all. Instead, they beat a good Team Sweden for a Bronze. Not what most hoped for, but not a disaster either (like some sort of epic 3rd period collapse in the gold medal game ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
