Well Americans have work to do, it's just one game but our chances at a bye are obviously almost gone. We will see what this team is made of now

I hope for Team US that Forbort gets reduced IT onwards...
Or just a meeting with Blais in order to "calm" him.

Man, terrible...

blah balah. lets be honest this tournament is not a big deal to anyone but Canada. but regardless of that, why hype campbell so much then not play him? i don't get that. also the US has too much speed and size to have such a weak forecheck. so i think a lot of this falls on the coach. of course at this point of the tourny who knows what will happen...

Gibson is terribad. His stupid play cost his team, and after the first Fin goal in the third he completely got thrown off his game.

Basically, Gibson sucks and should not goaltend for the rest of the tournament.

The contrast in terms of defensive play in Finland's game between Canada and US is incredible. They're not giving the US an inch to play near the crease. All perimeter chances.

Chill out my US brothers. How many times has my beloved Canada coughed up a preliminary round game and went on to either win Gold or at least medal? This game means nothing. If anything, I expect them to come out even harder against Canada on New Years Eve.

pretty sure campbell is getting the rest of the games... but finland did what they needed to do today... capitalize on their chances and not let usa get to ANY rebounds...

gibsons penalty was the turning point...
