Cry more π
Canada U R Still The Best In The Worldππβ€οΈπ€π¨π¦π¨π¦
USA one gold medal in the last 46 yrs
Hockey is Canadaβs Gameππβ€οΈπ€π¨π¦π¨π¦πͺπ»πͺπ»

Hahaha
No they donβt get outplayed, last I checked the goalie is on the USA team too
πππ No one cares about the losers of history care about winning and that's what the USA didππππ
Both teams played good, but hellebuyck was a brick wall.
The cope and excuses in this video are embarrassing.
Canada got away with missed calls, also.
Jack Hughes got his teeth smashed out.
Just ruck up and press on.
You can cry about missed calls all you want but Canada had ALL THE CHANCES IN THE WORLD! 3 on 5, wide open nets, breakaways, 42 – 28 shots on net and still couldn't get it done. No one to blame but themselves.
How bout the double post on Faber? You idiots act like youβre the only side that didnt capitalize due to bad luck. No you got outplayed when it mattered most and youβre doing home with silver. Go boo another anthem losers
Only stat that counts is the W
Who the thought syrup drinkers canβt get it done a rather limp performance Iβd say go USA go USA go USA USA gold medal win fantastic. We are the best in the world.
If Canada outplayed the us they wouldβve won. Nice try Canadians. Enjoy π₯
We had several golden opportunities, with total domination over the last 2 periods. Nothing to be ashamed of. My only gripe is 3V3 in the finals, should be regular format with marathon time.
Quit your whining!
USA πΊπΈ
Another McDummy meltdown. That guy will never win
Excuses are like assholesβ¦.
They're not guaranteed if they didnt go in. And let's not start talking penalties lol yall got out played. It was never canada.
Ok how about us ringing both both post,or Bennington robbing Quinn Hughes..the U.S. coach should never coach this team again period.this team was built to out number on the forecheck with there big guys and have our dominate d guys make up on the back end..instead he had them playing on there heels defensively..if bill guerin is going to keep building the team like this,than peter lovolette style of hockey should be in going forward
All sports events have ebbs and flows, good calls, bad calls. I agree that Canada had missed opportunities and out shot the U.S., but ? So?
Canada choked. Stop bullshitting it. We lost that game because we missed so many key chances
USA USA USA πΊπΈ
Not only do we dominate in Tariffs but hockey too πππ
If you became our 51st state you would have gold.πππππ
πΊπΈπ πΊπΈπ πΊπΈπ
You also couldn't score on a 2 man advantage.
We're gonna take Alberta next and rename it North Texas
Majority of Canadians are willing to join USA, this might be a small gift their team send to USA from bottom of their heart.π
All i hear are excuses
100% penalty kill. It didnt matter if the call was made or not
As a lifelong Devils fan I'm used to this narrative. Devils cheated in the 90's with the neutral zone trap, but other teams used it as well or some version of it (left-wing lock in Detroit). "If the Devils didn't have Brodeur.. Team X would have won" and the narrative shifts to "if the Devils didn't have Niedermayer and Stevens, NJ would have lost 15-0" even though we had Marty in net.. So if we didn't have Marty, we'd lose every game even though we had Nieds and Stevens? Which one is it? lol
Point is hockey is a team game. You get your chances to execute and either are successful or you fail. Have to give credit where it's due, it's not like Team Canada thought the US team was just lucky to be there and were destined to lose, and it was by accident Boldy scored and Quinn hitting the post behind Binnington could have put the US up by a goal.
It's not that the US won, it's just that Canada shot itself in the foot and the US was lucky, they really didn't belong there in the first place.. ππ€
If you cant score on 5 against 3 in powerplay, you can blame your self!
In 1980 the Russians out played the USA too, but heart won the day just like today!!πΊπΈπΊπΈπΊπΈπΊπΈπΊπΈπΊπΈπΊπΈ
Stop crying and try and understand that shots on goal don't mean squat unless they go in. Enjoy your evening, eh?
canadian missed their refs this time?ππ
Sometimes she goes
Sometimes she doesnβt
Today she didnβt go
And thatβs the way she goes, boys.
See you in 2030
Nothing sweeter than Canadian tears.
