So what does Kessel have to worry about? Being left off the team again? Sheesh, Backes.

This.There is none. Backes is just embarrassed because his team just got whooped and he knows he shouldn't have made the cut in the first place.

This seems on par with hope solo's coward comment.

Well he's gotta worry about Backes throwing an elbow now that he's on the Bruins.

It's quality not quantity with Phil.That is apparently just his third tweet in the last year. One of the other two was a picture of him hoisting the Cup.
Phil owns the internet!

Globetrotters vs. Generals on ESPN right now.
Wait. No. It's Team NA vs. Sweden.

Jesus. Would somebody get Wyshynski to STFU already about the attendance for these afternoon games?

Depending how this game unfolds, it's going to force Russia to have to win by a decent margin tomorrow or be eliminated due to tiebreakers.
Once a 3 way tie is broken, it goes back to head-to-head so Russia could be boned or Sweden could be going home. I think North America advances automatically with a regulation win today because their goal differential will be more than Sweden, which gives them edge over Sweden both ways.

Did Uncle Gary send a memo at intermission to not call ANYTHING on the Swedes?

So, from all reports, the Team NA players thought they made it into the semis with the win. It wasn't until the media scrum did they learn they hadn't.
Why would the coaching staff not tell them they had to win in regulation to be in?

To me it's one of those you should know without the coaches telling you. If I can figure it out in a quick look at the tie breaker rules, they have no excuse of not knowing on their own.
Either way it's a win/win for me. Russia wins and hopefully Canada sends them home again or it's Canada vs NA and that will be fun.

I really want NA to move on but Canada blowin out Russia would be an adequate consolation. The only games ive watched have been the NA games.

Lombardi said he'd choose the Abdelkader's/Backes's of the world in favor of Kessel or Ryan.
Lombardi should never construct a national team again.

Well, I'd choose Backes over Ryan, too.

Rather than take the high road of 'It was a difficult process, but I'm comfortable with the team we chose', Lombardi decides to individualize it. That's not a good sign for a GM and frankly, should DQ him from picking another national team since now he has biases.

So, surely he's upset that Dubinsky was scratched in the pinnacle match then...at least his "logic" will allow him to disassociate himself from Tortorella...who I'm guessing was more behind Dubinsky's selection than Deano actually was...

This. Instead of admitting defeat and saying things need to change, they make excuses and whine. Loser city.And the USA team will never win anything.
