What a flop. I knew Brodeur would blow it going in and I sure was right. If Luongo doesn't start Canada's next game I'm moving.

[runt23]

he's gonna start next game.. but that will put brodeur back in against russia most likely with back to back games

[Metalhead]

I'm a Brodeur fan, but that's 2 games in a row that the other teams goalie has been better than him. Babcock gave him his shot, now it's time for Luongo to have his.

[Panekkkk]

I'm not a Brodeur fan. The guy is great on a stingy defensive team. He's only ever played for the Devils. Plus, he's getting up there in age. That's two goalies now who have outshined him now and Halak did the same for Slovakia versus Russia. Olympic hockey is all about the goalie and I'm so ****ing sick and tired of everyone saying we have the best goalie in the game. Overall, Brodeur is probably the best there ever is, although I'd dispute that. But he's nowhere near the best RIGHT NOW. And now is all that counts.

no shame in losing to the US...they have a strong squad

[vmchockey]

Glad I only put small bets on this game or I'd be pretty choked

[soaked in sweat]

sigh...maybe next time

[cecil127]

did i just hear the talking head on the boob tube say that the US hasnt beaten canada in olympic hockey in FIFTY years? jeez louise!

[waco66]

no shame in losing to the US...they have a strong squad

but our squad is stronger! much stronger..and we should that many times tonight. but two things happened tonight. 1, Miller stood on his ****in head and 2 Broduer played like shit

[podunk]

USA

[avssakic]

finally, go usa

[podunk]

This was a great game. Miller was a beast

[magynuck]

if they were thinking of going to luongo it might have been a good idea to get him in game after third us goal

[plzkthx]

what a great game still.

[DennisGreen]

he's gonna start next game.. but that will put brodeur back in against russia most likely with back to back games

I think they will ride Luongo from here on out regardless of back to back.

if they were thinking of going to luongo it might have been a good idea to get him in game after third us goal

I was thinking the same thing. It could have changed the momentum and fired up the Canadians.

[sportsfanatic]

Luongo time.

[Panekkkk]

Of course they should have. That's what I hate about having guys like Brodeur in net and a team with too much pride. It would have been too much of an "embarrassment" to pull the game's best goalie so we leave him in there to flounder. Those first three U.S. goals, maybe with the exception of the first, were all garbage goals given up by Brodeur. Any other team would have pulled their goalie, but the Canadians, never.

Anyway, there's no shame in the loss to the U.S. who played great. But there's shame in our general inability to score on 40+ shots and in our goalie. I'm almost happy with the loss because it means we get an extra game to build team chemistry and give Luongo a warm-up. Luongo will surely play back-2-back considering he'll probably only face at most 20 shots vs. Germany.

Russia in the Quaterfinals though... That will be the test.

[Jaug]

1st goal was bad, 2nd goal was bad, 3rd goal was bad. After that I turned of the TV. Get Luongo in the net please.

[bigbank]

Wouldn't want to be Germany right now. An ass whipping is coming!

[THE HITMAN]

Yeh, I'd be highly surprised to not see Luongo man the twines

[Josu]

I think you got it wrong.

Dear Canada backers - I had money on USA. Haha! In your face! Signed Martin Brodeur.
