Man the hockey gods are really cruel to our girls if they lose this now... geez.

Come on girls... it only takes one.

Inches from making this thing 3-1, then giving up the tying goal. That's a serious gut punch to have to overcome.


Even less, more like less than an inch. I don't know the post size for olympic hockey but the NFL's are 2-3/8's O.D. The puck hit just to the left of post center.

What a frigging letdown. Less than a minute from victory. Give it up to the Canadians, though. They never quit.

Screw Canuckistan. As a Minnesotan I'm ashamed of our women for throwing in the towel with three minutes left. I hope this motivates the Gophers to win another NC.

Yeah that slashing call was brutal. So much had to go wrong for the US to lose this game, and it all did. Just heartbreaking for them.

How many Gold Medal/Finals matches have our women’s sports teams lost without winning one now?? Between women’s soccer and hockey it seems like you can’t keep them out of the finals, but they just can’t win the damn thing… super frustrating.

At least soccer won Gold in 2012 in London

It always feels like the other team comes from behind too. It'd be one thing if we just got beat, but we always lose in the worst way. Remember the World Cup? Holy shit.

One of the worst collapses I have ever seen. Albeit aided by poor luck for the Americans, but there is no way they should've lost this game.

I'm a Devils fan- I've honestly gotten used to squandering 2-0 games in the last few minutes.

That finish so reminds me of he 2009 Frozen Four National Championship Game. I went to Miami and the hockey team was getting ready to win the first National Championship in school history. A minute to go and up by two - and they lose. Worse collapse ever.
