usa looked pretty awful from what i watched i really hope they step it up a lot

iginla didn't get the hat trick they gave the last goal to rick nash and not iginla

They made a few mistakes but I wouldnt say awful. We definitely lack experience but our speed is very impressive, our 2nd goal was simply just wheeled up the side by Backes. The Swiss missed a few open shots which will definitely have to be looked at by the US, but overall I believe a large part was nerves being played out by a very young team.

If you look at Russia's defense, it's pretty obvious that they are absolutely screwed against any team that can hit the net. All 3 forwards cherry picking at the blue line while one D man fends off a forecheck, trying to move the puck up the ice prematurely.

thanks - but come on, its norway...

Anything less then gold is a poor performance in our eyes.

As it should be.

Team Canada isn't just loaded with NHL talent, it is loaded with All Star NHL talent.

The USA team is young, don't know if that means they will play loose or stupid.

I'm hoping for loose and nothing to lose and minimal expectations.

The pressure on Canada to not only win but destroy all opposition might bite them. But I doubt it. They look fabulous.

      Yea I have it.  When it flares it can be very severe.  I had an extended hospitalization a couple years ago and it took a while to recover.  Can’t imagine trying to deal with that as a pro athlete.  It’s hard enough as a desk jockey.

      Before Shadeur Sanders there was Ryan Mallet

      I think the difference is that The Golden Calf of Bristol and Cam were just big personalities with big time talent (The Golden Calf of Bristol just lacked any consistency, leading to most of us hating him because it felt like he pulled big plays out of his ass). Sanders is a good talent who is completely full of himself and the ego feels unearned. You should WANT to change the bad culture of the losing franchise you expect to go to as a top pick...but that's a thing you keep to yourself or articulate well enough that it doesn't come off as "we're doing poo my way, if you don't like that, don't draft me".  You don't create an entire room touting yourself as legendary when you did absolutely nothing legendary at the collegiate level. Nobody is going to be fondly remembering Shadeur Sanders the college QB. Johnny Football is there, Cam is there, Vince Young is there, RGIII is there, The Golden Calf of Bristol is there.   Sanders needs humility and to pry himself away from his father. His father is going to tank his career before it is even started.    Sanders may bounce around the league as a backup for a few years, he'll play in select games and look like a backup but he'll have that one game where he pops off and that game will be used to say "see?! He's great!" and then he'll get the start and never live up to that game again.
