This was the poorest performance I've seen from team canada in a long time... The last few years, their weakness has been goaltending. Plain and simple. When they out chance their opponents by a 2 or 3-to-1 margin and still lose, it's pretty obvious the other teams goaltender vastly outplayed ours... But this year, our goaltending was fine but our team game was terrible. This team had very little dominating puck possession the entire tournament. Much of the games they won were due to skill alone from a select few players and not due to the usual unending pressure and offensive cycle game that canada has done in the past.
