Team USA head coach Mike Sullivan says he’s ready for Thursday’s 4 Nations Face-Off championship game against Sidney Crosby and Team Canada to be even more competitive than the team’s first tournament matchup.
That’s saying something given that Saturday’s game started out with three separate, and reportedly pre-planned, fights in the first nine seconds of play.
Mike Sullivan on USA facing Canada again on Thursday in the final:
“That first game was such a good hockey game. It’s great for hockey that there’s an opportunity for these two teams to meet again.
