Go home Canada, you don't even deserve the bronze.

 

[TRG]

Impressive display by the US. Definitely the better team.

[The Zetterberg Era]

Just a great effort by Team USA tonight, they were the better team and deserved to win. By the way an attaboy to Housley for saving the legs on these guys while everyone ran around complaining about ice times. That plan worked and he deserves credit for that.

 

[Cashville]

Wooo go Amurrrica! Caught the last period.

 

[chaosrevolver]

Well deserved win for the United States. Outplayed Canada in every facet and Gibson was absolutely tremendous when he needed to be.

Good luck tomorrow.

Back to the drawing board for Canada. Curious who gets the coaching reigns next year.

 

[Bgav]

Go Russia

 

[Snippit]

This is killing me so hard. It hurts so bad right now.

Gratz to the USA...

 

[JurassicTunga]

Gaudreau is the man

 

[Mione134]

Great game. Always a pleasure to beat Canada. Gibson was a stone wall. The boys played their butts off. Just an overall great game to see.

 

[BoHorvat53]

Hockey is OUR game, eh?

No Corrado or Murray.

Spott chooses Murphy over everyone. Selects J.C. Lipon to the team. Goes with Subban. Recipe for disaster

 

[jigsaw99]

sigh... GG...

takes a stack team with 5 1st rounders on D and RNH and lose to an undersize usa team with only 2 1st rounders on forward and managed to store 5 goals...

 

[professorchaos]

Great game by the Americans, too bad the Canadians and their coaching staff couldn't man up and make a game of it.

 

[Alerion]

Next year's game plan: Lose to Latvia in pool play so we can avoid the curse of the bye

 

[nyr2k2]

USA! USA! USA!

Just one left, boys. Get 'em.

 

[Canucks LB]

bad coaching, bad effort, no heart, a bit dirty, and just a disgusting performance.

Followed with a clinic by gibson, and that's all folks.

 

[Dangles78]

to the FEW people saying Harrington was bad.

It's like people don't watch the game and base everything off the scoreboard. Harrington wasn't stellar by any means, but even in a game like this, he managed to look good. It may not say much, but he was paired with Hamilton and Murphy at times who were just awful and yet he stood out IMO.

Players can play well even when a team as a collective doesn't.

 

[2XPRO31]

For someone who "should be in the NHL" Huberdeau looked absolutely useless

 

[BobDobolina]

Hockey is OURS

So impressed by the US team today. Favorites for the gold for me no matter what happens in the other SF.

 

[Killahpunk]

I never want to see Steve Spott coach a Canadian team again.

 

[Cirris]

Someone needs to gif those fans hugging during the ceremony. It was amazing.

 

[Suxnet]

What disappointed me the most about team Canada in this entire tourney was the defense. Hamilton, Rielly, Murphy were average-poor defensively and didn't do **** offensively.

 

[KulleKing*]

Better team won, plain and simple. Now it is up to russia/sweden to decide who gets the gold.

 

[Wile E Coyotes]

Canada put in their place by a superior hockey team! Gotta love it
