One Game - USA vs Canada Gold Medal Game Thread

Captain_america-thumb-400x546_medium  vs Captain-canuck_medium

Well we all know how the last game between these two went down (and just because it's fun to watch - here's a reminder).  Both teams played like they were on acid in one of the most exciting games we've seen all year.  The game was back and forth and though Canada had the upper hand in almost every category, they weren't able to beat Ryan Miller

Miller will certainly be needed again today as the Canadians showed us how dangerous they can be.  Miller will absolutely have to stand on his head several times today - and I feel comfortable in trusting him to do that.  The American blue line isn't as strong as it could be due to injuries, but it's probably better than Russia's, and at least we won't have a team that rolls over at the first sign of trouble. 

The greatest thing the Americans have going for them is the lack of pressure.  They've shown they can beat the Canadians already... but more importantly, they've exceeded just about everyone's expectations for this tournament.  Not many really expected them to get this far (except us of course), no one expected to win the #1 seed... hell not even the NHLPA thought the Americans would be here. But here they are, 60 minutes away from being able to stand in the middle of the podium and hear their National Anthem being played.

Of course, the Canadians won't be making things easy.  Since the loss the USA, they pulled Martin Brodeur in favor of Bobby Lou, the lines have been shuffled around and they've just steamrolled everyone in their way.  At least they did until things got close.  They destroyed Russia but once Slovakia scored their first goal, you could see the Canadians grip their sticks tighter and tighter.  Now with the gold medal game here - the pressure is going to be at its highest for our neighbors up north.  We know they'll have players that will be foaming at the mouth (and don't think Toews wouldn't kill Patrick Kane's entire family with a hammer for the gold.. he would) but they'll have other players that might crack when it comes down to it.

The biggest goal for the US should obviously be to grab the early lead.  Scoring first is damn near a must.  Apart from that, if they can keep it tied for a long stretch we could see the pressure weigh down the Canucks.  We know the place is going to be packed with bloodthirsty Canucks... just weather the storm and play a simple game. 

GO USA!

Killion forgot one thing, and I'm glad Mike Martin reminded me:

1960. 1980. And now, 2010. This is our year!

We seem to do well in these Census years.

I hope we keep up the streak.

The 1980 team had sons of a 1960 winner. This 2010 team has the son of a 1980 player.

GO USA!

As shitty as Americans can be

I can’t see a group of Americans chanting Fuck Canada. In fact, it was the Habs fans that booed the US national anthem a few years ago and to return the favor the Bruins fans (Boston of all places!) cheering the Canadian anthem all the way through.

Shameful.

Why would the US get worked up and chant? We’re a mouse at the foot of an elephant. Think the elephant gives a shit? No. And why would they?

I’m not going to get into politics, but whenever any sport has us against you there is always the sidebar of fundamentally different politics … and then you get the chants. It’s doesn’t show us at our best, but it is what it is.

The USA and Canada are somewhat different - but pretty close (relatively speaking) in most ways

It is more like an intrafamily rivalry – with Canada usually feeling it stronger due to its smaller size (population wise) giving it something of the ‘little brother’ mindset.

I don't know what to say really....

 Three minutes till the biggest battle of our professional lives all comes down to today. Now either we heal as a team or we’re gonna crumble, inch by inch, play by play, ‘til we’re finished.
We’re in hell right now, gentlemen, believe me. And, we can stay here — get the shit kicked out of us — or we can fight our way back into the light. We can climb outta hell one inch at a time.
Now, I can’t do it for you. I’m too old. I look around. I see these young faces, and I think — I mean — I made every wrong choice a middle-aged man can make. I, uh, I pissed away all my money, believe it or not. I chased off anyone who’s ever loved me. And lately, I can’t even stand the face I see in the mirror.
You know, when you get old in life things get taken from you. I mean that’s…part of life. But, you only learn that when you start losing stuff. You find out life’s this game of inches. So is football. Because in either game, life or football, the margin for error is so small — I mean one-half a step too late, or too early, and you don’t quite make it. One-half second too slow, too fast, you don’t quite catch it.
The inches we need are everywhere around us.

They’re in every break of the game, every minute, every second.

On this team, we fight for that inch. On this team, we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch, because we know when we add up all those inches that’s gonna make the fuckin’ difference between winning and losing! Between livin’ and dyin’!

I’ll tell you this: In any fight, it’s the guy who’s willing to die who’s gonna win that inch. And I know if I’m gonna have any life anymore, it’s because I’m still willin’ to fight and die for that inch. Because that’s what livin’ is! The six inches in front of your face!!

Now I can’t make you do it. You got to look at the guy next to you. Look into his eyes! Now I think you’re gonna see a guy who will go that inch with you. You’re gonna see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team because he knows, when it comes down to it, you’re gonna do the same for him!

That’s a team, gentleman!

And, either we heal, now, as a team, or we will die as individuals.

I think that Patrick thinks that he’s partially in Toews’s shadow. Which is weird, because Kaner gets five times the ink that the Captain does.

Kane is usually the guy when it comes to the Hawks this year but,

Toews has been the best player in this tournament bar none. He’s went from 13th forward to #1 as far as line combinations go. He’s been the engine that drives the truck as far as Canada goes.

Kaner’s line has been the most dangerous. I don’t know if they’ve stepped it up or if the Parise line is just getting Tazer’d but this could be crazy.

guys, we played them so close, and we should feel good about ourselves.

That was one of the best games I’ve ever seen, and in a four-on-four situation, there’s no question that Canada has more offensive weapons. Still, it was an incredible run by a team no one expected, a team that got stronger and stronger with each game, a team that has close to no Olympic experience. They were down by two goals, and they brought it to the brink. USA hockey has a fucking awesome future; this game proved it.
