This was a very well-played game with exactly two mistakes made that the Swedes were good enough to take advantage of. It doesn't have to be an NHL playoffs game or the men's olympic games to be great. If you're truly a fan of the game, then you can appreciate great games at any level.

Many experts here had actually predicted that Sweden would beat US in the semi.

Funny.

Do you think that any "experts" outside of Sweden predicted this?

Shootouts are lame (and I have always thought this regardless of the result). I don't see why they can't play until there is a winner (ala Stanley Cup playoffs).

Agreed. Shootouts are not hockey.

I heard that Hayley Wickenheiser predicted that Canada might meet Sweden because Martin could stone the U.S.
