USA Ready to Reignite Rivalry With Canada

(Team USA vs Canada, S69 Round Robin)

 

It's been a hard and testing tournament for Team USA in this year's WJC, going from winless in their first 4 to beating World in the Semi-Final. It has proven to been a roller-coaster of emotions for the team and fans alike, but the true test however, lies in their upcoming opponent in Canada. Their second place finish in the Round Robin was good enough to place them against Europe in the Semi-Finals, but a mishap in starting lineups had backup tendy Jacques Lafontaine starting, letting up 6 goals and giving World a ticket to the Gold Medal game. Team USA, coming off a loss to Team Asia in the semis now has them in a spot to win Bronze against their northern rival in a game that is likely to reignite the fires from S66's Gold Medal game. Expect both teams to show up with a passion to come away from the tournament with a medal and a one-up on their biggest rival.
