Yeah man, that was very unlike him, but as was seen it can happen to pretty much any goalie in a competition like this. Martin Brodeur was not any better vs the USA than Kiprusoff... both of whom are elite goalies. After paying a lot of attention to the manner in which the Canadian team was selected, I feel as though we basically selected our team with the motto "how can we beat the Russians?". Well we beat them 7-3, but now we face the US for the gold medal, not the Russians. At the same time, the United States definitely came here with the mentality that they needed a team built to compete with and beat Canada. Hopefully this slight discrepancy in vision will not be the deciding factor in the outcome today's game! I feel as though the game is pretty much a toss up, but would like to think Canada will prevail. I say the final score will be 6-4 Canada.

Hats off to the Canadian hockey team, they showed up to play. It's too bad Crosby wasnt born on the other side of the border.

The only reason the Canadians won that much Gold is simply because they sabotaged the games!

Bad ice-rinks,horrible border-cross tracks etc etc.


:lol:


But seriously, congratulations you guys !
