I couldn't believe Nash missed that open net, I don't know how he did it. He shot the puck directly into Miller.
To me Canada looked like they were on a powerplay whenever the Heatly line was on the ice. Team usa was putting no pressure on the puck with that particular line. Anytime that line was on the ice I was holding my breath. Not only did they keep steady pressure on the US, the US couldn't even gain the line against them.

Team USA needs to fix that powerplay, and quick. They had a very difficult time establishing any kind of flow in the offensive zone. WHen they did they forced everything and it was quickly cleared.

As for pinning goals on Broduer....To me hes just much better than that. He got caught out of position twice, both times diving, or lunging at the puck. I don't know if hes gotten caught twice like that in his entire career. Not that I can remember.

I also thought team USA looked lost in their defensive zone. Their D is big and slow and thats not going to cut it unless Miller continues to play like the best to ever draw a breath

Left handed shot.
