Time to get the Gold!
With only half an hour until puck drop, the excitement and anticipation is beginning to build already. Outside of Canada/Russia, this was the game that most Canadians wanted. Combine that with the fact that we lost in the first game to the American squad, this would act as a great redemption. The game should be watched my millions worldwide and I anticipate that the ratings will be better than NCAA Final Four, and World Series games.
It’s amazing to me that if we combined the American and Canadian rosters that we would probably only use a maximum of 4 American players on Team Canada. I would take Zach Parise, Patrick Kane, Ryan Miller, and possibly Ryan Malone. Of course one of the players I would choose happens to be playing the most important position…goalie. Team Canada outshot the Americans really bad in the last game, but Miller held them in tact. If Miller gets hot again, we could see the same thing. I believe if we play the exact same game and don’t let in soft goals that we will be fine and bring home the gold.
Prediction: Canada 4 USA 2
Go Canada Go!
