The hard truth:

In the final game of this tournament, Team Canada was without three of their best defenders (Pietrangelo, Theodore, Morrissey) and it still took Brady Tkachuk and Guentzel going beast mode for USA to push it to OT

We'll be doing this all over again in the Olympics, brilliant.

Everybody wants it quickly, comfortably, and with nice easy swings.
It's not possible.
You can't get success being comfortable.
You can't get success from being easy.
Wins do not come from being comfortable.

Champions are made in the moments when others quit. Hence AGR won and the school lost.
