No. Not that much better. I don't see it from the games they have played. They had a couple of blowouts against weak teams like Slovakia and Slovenia, and then beat Russia in a shootout, in a really evenly played game that Russia should have won on the strength of the goal that was called back late in the third.
Again. Lots of this is smoke and mirrors, and we really won't know until watching tomorrow to see how either team stacks up against each other. I expect though that the US is not nearly as dominant compared to Canada in this tournament as they have appeared from the results.
