Congrats to the US team.

You wont see him on the stat sheet but Beniers had a hell of a Gold game performance. youngest kid on the team. Can't wait to get him and York back on the ice this coming week.

watch the finals real well played although I thought The game with the Fins was the key game.The Game with Canada was tough but the USA had control of the game most the way. What happen to Russia

Personally I don't think Russia was that great this year. Sure they could beat the lesser teams but Canada destroyed them. Despite the final score (4-1, and included 2 ENGs) the Finland game was pretty close. Finland went up 2-1 with less than 2 minutes left in the 3rd period. True, Russia beat the US 5-3 in the first game of the tournament for the US but it was the US's first game. They hadn't gelled as a team yet. As you can see they did and they did well. Russia had been playing together for much longer. As with most sports it's not so much who you play but when you play them.

Also, the US rode a hot goalie. A hot goalie changes things. I hate saying this but see the 2007 michigan state sparty team. They finished in 4th place in the CCHA that year and somehow squeaked into the tournament. Jeff Lerg won that Natty for sparty. That and the team as a whole said "F.U." to Rick Comley and played how they wanted to play, but Lerg stood on his head.
