I did'nt expect it but if you remember that in an earlier thread me,you and others were talking about this subject and i cautioned U.S fans about thinking Montoya was the king in nets of this tourney because we thought the same thing about Fleury going into the thing last year and looked what happened.Like i said....goaltending is a funny thing and performance can't be taken for granted......Montoya has been bad but it does'nt shock me at all....it surprises me but does'nt shock me,that's goaltending for ya!!Rabid Ranger said:

Watch Out
Despite the problems they've had to date, I fully expect if the U.S. plays Canada that there would be a much better effort by the entire U.S. team. And it wouldn't surprise me at all to see the U.S. in the final against Canada and for Montoya to play like he did last year.

The saying, "goaltending is 85% of the game, when it is bad it is 100%." You can crap on Sandelin all you want and there are a couple of things i take issue with... but this team has talent and their goaltending has been well below average and even when it was OK( Czech game) there were still bad goals in the game. The US are going down unless Montoya shakes the crappy goals out of his system.

All forecheck no backcheck. They must have gotten cocky with the way it worked against Russia. Hasn't worked since.
