This is like the United States losing the World Series to a team entirely comprised of Canadians.

Worse then that. It'd be like a team of All-starts losing to a team of all Canadians. The canadian team is STACKED. Also i'd say Canadians are better at hockey then Americans are at baseball.

Agreed. I am dumbfounded by how well the American goalie played in that game.

Sorry, but I watched the first two periods. I didn't see this "significantly out played" bull crap. I wasn't nervous for USA what so ever.

Canada, 45 shots on goal.

United States, 22 shots on goal.

All things being equal, Canada wins the game 95% of the time with a stat advantage like that.

Okay... and a lot of those shots were soft and easy. Broduer had to make some great saves too. If he didn't the game could have easily been out of hand in favor of USA. Even with the shot total.

Sure, some of those shots were soft... But when you nearly DOUBLE the opponent's shots on goal and still end up losing by two goals, you have one person to blame... your own goalie. Maybe he didn't play badly but he sure didn't play up to the competition, unlike the rest the rest of your team, which controlled the puck and had it on the US side of the ice for most of the game.
