  Knowing only the score, in what way did the U.S. have their head up their ass?
• gorocks99

  

  Yeah, one more win gets us a medal ... if it's tomorrow, it gets us silver, if it's Saturday, it gets us bronze. Two more wins gets us gold.

  The Swiss played a very hard forechecking game and Hiller played out of this world.
  
  C'mon boys just one more game to win and you're playing for Gold!

  Canada outshot us 45-22 and we won.
  
  Believe me... that was going through my head during a lot of this game.
  
  That sequence where Switzerland almost scored and then the USA had a goal waved off was bizarre. I was pretty sure the Swiss had scored, and that nothing on the other end was going to matter. Then to find out the shot had actually hit the post -- only to have our goal nullified by a penalty -- I've never felt so lucky and unlucky on the same play at the same time.

  Tight game for the US, the Swiss have been a tough out for evryone they've played in this tournament. Hiller has been unreal, I can't remember a team being out shot as bad as the Swiss have and their goalie keeping them in every game like this.
  
  I really think we were looking ahead to the semifinals today and the boys can't play that way Friday or they will definitely lose.

  I hope the Russians take out Canada tonight (sorry Rock, I know you love Crosby and hate Ovechkin and probably Datsuyk as well)
• rock_knutne

  BTW, piss on Canada and their fans. They booed us every chance they got today, must still be feeling the sting of that loss a couple days ago. Hell they still complain about losing the World Cup of Hockey on home soil to us!
• Laley23

  

  lol, guess I was wrong! Go RUSSIA!
