Hockey aside, don't get me started on why Americans do well at Olympic sport and Canadians don't. And it has nothing to do with our superior beer.

What was so great about it, in your eyes? The fact that your goatender saved the game for you? We owned that game. Your goaltender was the only reason for the score.

certainly did.You guys had the puck in our end a lot but that seemed like the USA was just trying to hold onto the lead and run the clock out by focusing on defense.

Not really. You even have the US head coach admitting to being outplayed. you were outshot 45 to 23. Offensively, very weak. If your goaltender hadn't stood on his head, and ours failed miserably, you guys would have lost definitively. Our goalie let in weak goals. But, on the ice, we were the better team.

Last nights game was played on ice FYI.You have a hall of famer in net, correct?The whole out played thing is bullshit.You would have won if you did so.Your goalie is apart of your team.

Brodeur is a has been. Jeremy Wotherspoon's father was a horrible teacher ('sup grade 5!), failing at life runs in the family. As much as I hate Luongo - he should be up there indefinitely. It's okay - Yzerman is blaming poor ice conditions. If they fix the ice, we'll win gold!

And this from the guy who says he has a hard time even following the puck? Your own coach admitted to being outplayed and relying too heavily on the goaltender. You're free to disagree with me, but surely you're not going to disagree with the Olympic head coach, are you?

I've disagreed with more of an expert then him on a variety of issues.Its called being gracious in victory.Its the american way.There there, america's hat.You guys will always be the tops in my book.

Ok, there we have it. The Olympic USA men's hockey coach believes the team needs to be better offensively and give the golatender a break, but Bird33 at insanetrain.com thinks they played just swell.
Duly noted.

Once the US got a lead it seemed they sat back and played defense.Thats all I'm saying.The USA coach being gracious especially when they might have to play that team again is not surprising nor does it make it gospel.

The key you are missing though is the fact that you did not have a clear lead until the 3rd period. One goal lead would be a pretty soft spot to start playing the defensive game.
I maintain it came down to goaltending. Yours had a great night. Ours stuttered from the start.

Just admit it, Luongo is "da man". It's ok.

Luongo over Brodeur any day.
Just not in the sack.
Marc Andre Fleury isn't getting his due. At all.

I have no problem being out played as long as the scoreboard is in my favor.

It is all that counts in the end. Here in Calgary, we're still talking about the fact that we theoretically won the cup in 04, even though we technically did not. We have problems with losing to inferior teams.
canada = pwn3d - BIRD33 - 02-23-2010
Inferior?We have a better goaltender which seems pretty important.
