We Sharks fans are used to it by now.

As long as the 25-year streak of American teams winning the Stanley Cup continues, I'm happy!

Yeah, I know most of the good players are Canadian.

misandry is real
miserable third and OT from Canada. their line changes were slow and there was no pressure at all to keep the speed of the Americans in check. they seemed completely gassed.

also gently caress the officials so much

Yes, if the country of Sweden didn't exist.

Forwards, sure -- but on defense Sweden is arguably better.

I hope they review the shootout for medal games. Despite the correct team winning it's a lame way to end what was a fantastic game to that point.

I hate shootouts. I can't watch them even when I'm neutral on the teams. Soccer too.

Still better than android clock

:agreed: Being the second best team in the world is nothing to scoff at and they ought to be proud, but it's something they knew before it even started. Nobody had any misconceptions about the tournament being a race to third and then another episode of the Canada-US rivalry.

Both teams looked pretty good and evenly matched until maybe halfway through the third, and then Canada just ran out of gas. The team that should've won did, even if it was because of a stupid minigame.
