Good on you for actually showing good sportsmanship and not crying “WE SHOULDA HAD BEDARD AND FANTILLI” because believe me, it felt like that’s all anybody was saying on Twitter and UA-cam comments. Good on you for being a good sport.
I’m not a hockey fan yet I’m sooooo proud of these boys! Representing our country and knowing that they are the face of our great nation! And gave all they have! Respect for the boys and I felt sooo good to see our boys singing our awesome anthem! USA! USA! USA! Beats Rapinoe and the others for sure!
I got choked up watching this group of boys sing their hearts out to the national anthem. That was just common for most of my life until the past 15 years. It is wonderful to see such respect and excitement!
Congrats to the US, well deserved win. And yes, I am Swedish. Your team played better than ours, simple as. I dont enjoy the shit flinging from either side. Edit: To add, the only thing that pisses me off as a Swede is when you just down right insult me or my nation, its a hockey game. treat it as such please.
I love these young men. Pride, but the good kind. Proud of their abilities, proud of one another and so proud to be Americans. I haven't been this happy watching hockey since our boys won it all in 1980! Way to go USA!
I love how team USA plays fast, skill based hockey. Well deserved champions! it's interesting to see how younger generation is changing the game in good way. I wonder will there be rules against pass-over-the-goal (Zegras to Milano) things for exmaple.... i hope not.
I hope not. I'm a bit fan of the innovation that the next generation is bringing into the game. I think it'll only serve to make our sport more popular, which is what the goal should be! Tough luck for the Finnish lads today though, I thought they played really well until the 3rd period!
@@CunuckHockeyThe United States has been a world power in hockey for some time now, on the world junior and Olympic stage. Our development program is the among the best in the world. Dominating Sweden on their home ice, beating Canada in gold medal games in Saskatoon, Montreal, and Edmonton. A lot has changed since the US shocked the Soviets in 1980, a Soviet team that embarrassed a team of NHL all stars a year prior. The United States is a dominant hockey power, without question.
Good video and summary, even though we feel differently about what you're calling "confidence". A confidence held in humility I love; one with a "take that" or "in your face" showboating attitude I do not, even though it has become the norm more than the exception in sports today. But in terms of play I could hardly have been happier with our boys all through the tournament. A great showing for sure! I actually very much enjoyed the whole tourney from start to finish. The only thing I felt was questionable was some of the officiating. Go USA!
@@niclas9990 I understand, and agree that it's hard not to 'retaliate'. Still, I feel it's classy not to respond in like manner but to just remain above it.
@@ButOneThingIsNeedful They're kids. Sweden is embarrassing itself with the salt when their boys were doing the same celebrating on their push to the silver. They just can't handle it when they're losing.
"Bruise on the leg is a helluva long way from the heart, you candy-ass..." "What'd you call me?!" "You heard me.." "You want me to play?! HUH?! Is that what you want?!" "I want you to be a hockey player!" "I AM A HOCKEY PLAYER! YOU WANT ME TO PLAY ON ONE LEG?! HUH!? I'LL PLAY ON ONE LEG!" "That'll get em' goin'!" "Oh, yeah...I'll clean up.."
Had no idea you could take a penalty of video after missing the call duaring the game. Specially with a almost identical situation earlier in the game that didnt get called, but you learn new stuff every day. The best team won, no doubt about it.
Yeah I’m wondering why they didn’t review the 4 missed highsticks by Finland in the semis. Also wondering how people believe the refs were helping the US. In both games I watched the refs missed a lot of calls against the US’ opponents, some were egregious.
So proud of this team,as well as the ones in the past.Singing our anthem should be a call to the other sports that kneel,copy these kids and not the babies....U.S.A. U.S.A. U.S.A......
Great hockey, great UA-cam coverage/Vlog, Thanks much... Nice not to get mopped up by the Canadians though the Olympics will be freakishly scary. Think about going against (for us American's), McDavid, McKinnon, Makar, Marner, Crosby, etc.
I wish the USA men’s soccer be like that imagine if we play hard and act like we’re the bad guys we might be the dominant team in soccer aka fut’eball.
I was referring to that being one of their only chances till that point of the game, which was at around 17 minutes left in the first. Before that, it was really mostly Sweden. Obviously that changed after the first period, with the US dominating play a lot more.
Swed looked dangerous first 10 but didn't capitalize- no scoring chance.... I can relate- you "game" can be tight but it doesn't mean shit if you don't score.
This WAS the score settled. That was the whole reason that the fight broke out. These guys played each other several times in years past back U16 up to now. Sweden beat them last year and this was the USA’s revenge in the final year for the majority of the team on both sides.
Fuuuuck don't remind me of our crazy bad statistics. We literally never win. For some reason we just never can win the juniors championship. But than again, the US team was the better team in this final.
@@lucasrydstrom7654 Wait what, you're blind. The Americans bashed the hell out of the Swedes. The American knocked the Swede down, headlocked him, then pummeled his face again after being separated despite being smaller. Imagine starting a fight with a guy whose half your size and still losing, Americans can fight and Swedes can't it seems.
@@AB-ez4rm don't know if you watched the same game but the Swedish fans cheered on their team the entire game and afterwards as well just as much. They booed the non-calls which every home crowd always does.
Sore losers are bad enough - but being bad winners is the worst. You don't rub the other team's noses in it... or risk getting stitches later on in your career. Those Swedish players will remember all of it, and one of those American players will be laying on the ice holding a knee soon enough.
You must not be a hockey fan, so I'll tell you to sit down and shut up politely. Euro teams get a huge break on penalties, and they hack and whack all game. Didn't you even watch?? The crowd wants to boo and this is what you get. The poor sportsmanship comes from the Swede crowd and the players slashing and crosschecking the whole tourney. Cry me a river then drown in it.
@@IntoTheWildFlyFishing yes, I agree that the officiating is bad and at times a bit favorable to the European teams - but that's no excuse for "basketball" or "football" behavior. Why not just start doing football-like end zone dances after a goal? No - that's not hockey - and I'd say the same about any team guilty of that trash. You lose like men and you win like men. Act like you been there before - even if you haven't. So, with the utmost respect, you sir need to sit down and STFU.
The arrogance of their goal celebrations was disgustingly disrespectful. These kids showed just how immature their country is. On the international stage, winning with humility commands respect from the rest of the world. Winning with arrogance like this reinforces the negative stereotype that the USA already has. Show some class for a change USA. Celebrate with your teammates. Leave the crowd out of it… at least on the international stage. 🤦🏻 P.S. Not saying that they didn’t deserve to win the game. Just saying that they don’t deserve the respect that should come with being Champions as a result of that disgusting display after scoring. 🤷🏻♂️
From Minnesota. Specifically, Edina. Look it up. Played there. Went on to Cornell. Played there. I remember all so well when our HS coach (Ikola) remarked that when you lose, you MUST be humble. But when you win, well......, then you have to be EVEN MORE humble. You NEVER grandstand. Ever. Period. You could never understand, you're not from Minnesota.@@sportsfan1717
Cry me a river buddy. You'd have hatred for the US no matter how we acted. So many people hiding behind this sort of phony morality today because they can't swallow Americans winning. The exact same celebrating is "passion" or "fun banter" when other countries do it, but when we do it, it's "arrogant" and "cocky". Btw, nothing says class like sending out your goon defender to start a fight with the other team's smallest player after you got spanked 6-2 on home ice lmao
Wronnnnnngggggg when the Canadian boys act like shits people complain as well, some people respect class others enjoy the pathetic celebrations and gloating to each their own I suppose but I prefer respect and class especially when representing your country
Soured their own win with their classless acting. They couldn’t silence the crowd though, let’s be honest, the crowd were the real winners there. But yeah, they are kids and not accustomed with the hockey culture of Sweden so they got rattled/shaken by the fans and took it personal, that was clear. In a way you can’t blame them for that. And yes, they absolutely deserved the win in the end. Even if the display was one of the more classless ones I seen in sports, I still get the circumstance: the immaturity and inexperience made them act up because they felt threatened and exposed. They are all just kids, so it is understandable and excusable. Just don’t fool yourself with your fantasy chains, as you are prone to do. It was a deserved win, not a worthy attitude.
What a fn second... nothing better than a Euro crowd? BZZZZZZZZT. Incorrect. Sweden did NOT dominate the first period or the beginning of the game. They had 2 good minutes and a couple chances on the PP.
Sore losers are bad enough - but being bad winners is the worst. You don't rub the other team's noses in it... or risk getting stitches later on in your career. Those Swedish players will remember all of it, and one of those American players will be laying on the ice holding a knee soon enough.

Team USA, Canada, Sweden, Finland, Slovakia, or Czechia are capable of winning every year. That’s what makes this one of the best tournaments.
You're right. It changes every year and makes it wonderful to watch.
Even Switzerland can sometimes chock us other hockey-nations. Or Latvia as in the World cup last year
This just isn’t true. It’s USA Canada and then everyone else

The best part was, the Americans played like neighborhood teens having an after-school game, with pizza on the line. 😁
I wonder how many teams in the past went thru the Tourney at 7-0? I found that accomplishment pretty amazing.
Leonard's goal made me proud to be an American. Just fight through it!

I think the only reason it was called was because there was already another penalty being called at the end of the play

Fortunate bounce? That was skill like Gretzky off Ellett in 93.
An American here and I have to say hockey is the greatest sport in the world. Thanks to Canada for inventing it.
Congratulations to the US team, I enjoy hockey and wish I could have seen this game. But either way it’s great for all these young men.
