After the success of the first game there was a lot of hope for the second match of the tournament between USA and Finland. Coming into this game expectations were at an all time high for the Americans and an all time low for the Finns, and this game displayed why.
Recap
In contrast to the lightning fast start of the Canada-Sweden game the matchup between the US and Finland had the speed of a broken down Mercury from the jump. That may be a bit harsh. Each team had a few chances but when there’s a goal less than a minute into one game everything else seems stagnant in comparison.
