That one was just awful on all fronts. Murphy should have played the body, but Reilly could have broken that one up well before it even got to that point. It was a great move by Nichushkin, and the wrong play by Murphy, but if Reilly had played it anywhere near competently Murphy's never in that position to begin with.
Congratz to all you americans, well deserved win for you! We wasn't good enough today, but I'm very happy that we made it to the final, I didn't think we would go this far when the tournament begin. Too bad we didn't have any of our top-3 defensemen or Zibanejad, but you guys was the better team today.
Rask was playing with Boyce-Rotevall and de la Rose today, and he couldn't do so much with them. I don't know why Rönnberg didn't use Rask more in the end, he created chances almost every time when he played in all matches.

If I was Gibson, the second I got back to Kitchener for my first game, I'd walk around the dressing room, with Spott present, with my shiny gold medal hanging out
