No disrespect to Canada, I'm a firm believer that the USA defeating them is a huge fluke and robs Canada of truly accomplishing what they're capable of. I've spent the last hour in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire Olympics watching Team Canada play great hockey it's just not fair.

If Canada loses again I will face that the USA deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to Canada and the Olympics.

As someone who only follows one NHL team, it's crystal clear to me that Canada's problems were entirely caused by benching my team's goalie and not inviting my team's top defenseman.
