That is because the Canadian Men’s hockey team choked.
They were heavily favored to win the gold medal.
If you looked at their team on paper they should have beat every other team by huge goal margins.
Yet, they did not. They barely beat other teams to get to the Gold/Silver round.
This is like when the Pats lost to the Giants in the Superbowl. When they had go undefeated and won eighteen games.
“They barely beat other teams to get to the Gold/Silver round”
They had to beat a team in O/T to advance.....which makes the canadian coaches comments even more hypocritical.
