Yup.

Also really nice bit of uncalled interference with the pick to get Hughes the space to get that off.

The US should not feel good about that win at all. They beat a debilitated butter soft Sweden team with Jacob Markstrom in goal and they won 2-1 in OT.

On second look Matthews doesn't touch the Swedish player so no interference, just a good switch.

I guess the Swedish coach should have played Andersson.

Gabe Landeskog with his knee injury history is probably not the guy I'd choose to have out in 3v3 OT just due to not having the foot speed anymore.

they're extremely fortunate to get Slovakia in the Semi's. A very easy path for them to the finals.

So overall I think it's probably pretty close.

Yeah... It's a good Cinderella story, but at some point it's going to end. Like Belarus in 2002. A good national team, but a lack of top end talent outside of Slafkovsky.
