*** statement made with the biggest possible S that you can possibly envision. In one of the most highly anticipated games of the Winter Olympics here in Milan, Cortina, the US women’s hockey team routes their archrivals, the Canadians, 5-0. These two teams could meet again in the gold medal match, and if they do, the Canadians will be motivated because. They got embarrassed on Tuesday night. The Americans will be confident, and they feel like they still have *** lot left in the tank. It blows my mind, yes, but at the same time, it doesn’t surprise me. This is one hell of *** group, or heck of *** group, sorry, that is really special, and we know how to score. An emotional game and you want to beat them, you know, really bad. So, uh, it’s, you know, games like these are. Or what you play for, it never gets old. I think every time you play Canada you can expect, um, *** very intense game back and forth action, and for us any time that we can beat them is, um, it’s huge for us. It’s what we, it’s what we train for and especially being on the Olympic stage, you know, we’ve been looking forward to this for, you know, 4 years now. I guess to us like we don’t, we just reset every time we play, no matter who we’re playing Canada, Finland, Sweden, um. We just reset and we’re we’re ready to go and for quarterfinal looking ahead, that’s all that we’re focused on. And here’s *** stat that proves just how dominating Team USA has been here in northern Italy. The Americans have outscored their opponents by 19 goals in just 4 games. Team USA has 20 total goals.
