Nope. Canada relies too heavily on superstars who don't show up when the game is on the line. McDavid scores a lot of goals, but not when it's important. Losing two Stanley Cups in a row is proof of that. Yes, the US had better goaltending, but you win and lose as a team. During that game, the US was the better team and they deserved gold.


You must have watched a different game than I did. The Canadian team out shot the Americans by a wide margin, had them pinned in their end for most of the second period, but the goalie was super-hot and kept the game safe. The goalie is the most important player on any team, when they are hot they usually win, when they are cold, they usually lose. But congratulation to them, they won, that is what matters.
