Stick in the hands, it was a glove lift...they were letting everything go though

3 on 3 to decide a gold medal is so dumb. But the goalie needs to make a save there.

[Beninho]

3 on 3 shouldn't decide any playoff game let alone a one off Olympic matchup. Becomes a completely different sport

Modest is hottest?

The NHL has proven that youth beats experience. I think it applies to every level of hockey. The kids these days handle the puck at a level above what anyone was doing 10 years ago.

They didn't miss it, they chose not to call it.

International reffing can't help itself. It's so bad.

[Strange Brew]

Sounds like the Canadian women gave it a heroic effort.

[Cecil Terwilliger]

It must sting a little for those Americans to be so happy to win but on the other hand represent such a #### country that stands hate and bigotry. Especially since we know many of them are gay. Their own country hates them and the whole world hates their country.

[Roof-Daddy]

USA player hooked the Canadian player on her hands on the break away. A stick lift isn't supposed to be on the ####ing hands.

Short term modesty for long term less fake teeth. Really, I don't know why I don't have a full covering still. I've seen people lose teeth, watched a guy almost lose an eye and I am content to apparently just risk that. I'm an idiot.

Not sure what a group of American women have to do with it, I guess.

Seems to be a haven for mentally deranged people around here. Can't even read a thread without unhinged people chiming in making the worst takes nowadays.

The better team definitely won. We looked like kids with a big heart trying to keep up when they turned it on.

You can't let a hook on a breakaway in OT go when the player doesn't even get a shot off. I've never seen that and proba ky never will again.

International reffing is putrid.

[Manhattanboy]

Ice was tilted in the third. Better team won.

I hate 3 on 3 and shootouts so much. Mostly because it’s the only way teams like EDM can get wins.

It really is a stain on the sport.

[Burning Beard]

I don't understand how Nurse went offside on a 2 on 1 there when the Canadian with the puck was skating in a straight line.

[Scornfire]

Ya, didn't really see the experience shining through with all the bobbled passes and poor choices with the puck. Hopefully it's a reset point and the brass gets canned, girls really gave it a great try though, Desbiens had a pretty solid performance

But in this game the older US players did the scoring for them

[Barnet Flame]

They gave it everything - gotta feel proud of them. So close, it hurts.

[DomeFoam]

Better team won, but if anything this might light a bit of fire in the men.

[Burninator]

There is nothing, nothing more cringe in this world than a USA chant.
