The Gold Medal Game About To Start.


Recommended Posts

If this were the Sun Belt Conference, the USA would win the gold medal because of the following scenerio:

Both teams played each other twice and are tied 1-1 in head-to-head. Team USA won the first game 5-3 in regulation. Canada won the second game 3-2 in OT. The USA therefore holds a 7-6 combined goal advantage over the Canadians, plus Canada has 2 losses in the tournament (comparable to conference play), while the USA has only one.

All this clearly shows that the USA won the gold.... if this were the Sun Belt Conference.

Somehow, somewhere, FIU is responsible for that overtime goal.

:lol:

Don't forget, they also had to scrape through prelims by winning an OT game against the swiss. They are very lucky and it's a bit sad. Hockey is all they got, and they barely got that. Oh well?

Still a great tourney by the U.S., the youngest team this year never trailed till the gold medal round. That's pretty amazing.
