Okay, let me clear this up a bit. I would have thought that maybe the fourth line was going to be manned by four players. You may have guessed that I panic about little things a bit too much (which I shouldn't, but do anyway). I understand that whatever works, works. With that being said - looks like we've got ourselves another game that's going to be decided in the third. US is going to have themselves a good opponent. You raise a good point. I brought up the NHL clubs as an example earlier but I see an alternative. Everyone on team Canada is basically at the same level. whether it's the first liners or the fourth liners. Most of those fourth liners (If not all) are first liners on their NHL clubs anyways and can play a scoring role while being defensively inclined, so it only makes sense to play them more than the 1-dimensional scorers. Buuut....That's not the case. They're there as 4th liners and not there to get a lot of ice time. It's just the role that their given by Babcock because that's what he feels is necessary to win. |

That was a very thrilling game! With VD as my witness, I said with like 10 minutes to go in the 3rd "wouldn't it be cool if they went to OT?" I was soon regretting it once they actually went into OT Great win though, This was a really great experience. I was too young to really enjoy the Salt Lake City gold, and they choked in Turin and to see them come together as a team, and eventually take the gold this time around, in OT no less, it was really something amazing. |
