Dunno what makes you say so. If anything, looking at the recent results and performance, USA should win Canada today and Sweden in the finals. I really hope that happens, because they deserve it.

Sweden will go down as the happiest silver medalist winners in Olympic history... an asterisks in all new edition sports psychology textbooks!

To win the olympics you need that aura of fear around you to intimidate the opposition. That you either are ridiculously strong (Canada, Sweden) or that you can pull off the unexpected with massive amounts of heart (Czech Republic). USA doesn't have it, they're not a scary hockey nation on the international level. No one ever goes "oh noes USA shit why are we playing them ("
Canada has a decent/good chance vs Sweden in a final, but I don't see USA winning a final against an experienced nation on the highest stage. It's the same reason Finland repeatedly chokes, they're pretty much in the same spot. They can knock out a top 2 team but no chance that they'll win the final.

on the plus side, being used to disappointment and bitter defeat will make today much easier

yeah, the Boston/Leafs game 7 last season prepared me for anything
|
So nice to win that game :D Now Can/USA we are hunting you >:D
|
That felt good. I'm really scared about Team USA tho and I think we will play them in the finals.
Hopefully Finland wins the bronze now. Go Teemu!

incorrect, all these games are too close to call. hence, the tight betting odds on 6 teams entering the Olympics.
Gretzky flopped, rolled, and dove 10X as much as Crosby. Its a Canadian tradition.
