It all comes down to this. USA vs. Canada. David vs. Goliath. The blogger vs. the blog namesake. Friendships will be torn, families will be split, and I'll be having a great time watching what's going to be an awesome game.

The much anticipated rematch is coming tomorrow afternoon. To nobody's surprise, Canada is already talking some serious trash. I'll admit, I didn't want this. Beating Canada makes them angry, and they have the talent where they should be running the train on everyone.

But they almost lost to Slovakia last night. Inches away from overtime.

Switzerland took them to a shootout.

They couldn't even score on Thomas Greiss for like half a game.

I remember what happened last time Canada was sure they were going to win.

Yikes.

Does a game with a bunch of 19 year olds played have anything to do with tomorrow? Nope. But it does highlight a nice little trend of Canada looking past the United States. Canada figures there's just no way they can lose twice. I think there is a way, and it comes from the hard work and strong system that the Americans have been playing over the past few years, opposed to Canada who just throws the best five players on the ice and hopes for the best. Sorry Canada, but every game you've played has been a close one against a terrible team or a near forfeit because Russia made the mistake (the same one San Jose makes) of thinking that Evgeni Nabokov is anything close to a clutch goalie. No close games yet. Well, one. A loss to America.

Any way we can get Al Michaels to call this game?
