Re: USA Women\'s Hockey Pathetic
Was the US women's hockey team complaining about Canada or about Sweden laying down in their game against Canada? The thought was Sweden just didn't try against Canada and saved their energy for the semifinal game against the US.

Some of the best football games I have witnessed were high school games, and they have less skill, speed, and athleticism then college and pro players.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm not saying it's the greatest game ever, just the best I've seen in a while. It was a very close game, tied from the 2nd period on through a shootout, had a lot of great exciting scoring chances, great penalty killing, and a lot of intensity. It was a game with a lot of great offensive chances and a goalie who was absolutely on fire. It doesn't have to be the Stanley Cup finals to be a great game. It could be a bantam game and still be a great game if it's well played.

Re: USA Women\'s Hockey Pathetic
I honestly must agree Patrick, I am a big time hockey fan, and I really enjoyed watching this game. I cannot stand most women's sports, but this game was suprisingly entertaining and enjoyable to watch

Re: USA Women\'s Hockey Pathetic
I can't believe someone with such an awesome avatar, could ever have such a bad take.
I would rather watch any NHL playoff game than the USA vs. Sweden game. While it was close I don't think it wwas a good game because of the lack of individual skill and speed of every single player on the ice.

Re: USA Women\'s Hockey Pathetic
Shark, Patrick- I agree it doesn't have to be the highest level for it to be a great game. But both teams should be playing about as good as they can for it to be great. If its a close game becuase one team makes a bunch of silly mistakes, its not a great game. Usually mistake free high intensity games only occur at the highest levels.
