    Come on whats up with them....

    No offence seemed like the only time they got going was after Russia would score a goal. starting of the Series with 0-2 is seriously not good.

    That's what happens when you use NHL players. Not enough emotion. Get the kids back in the game, THEN you'd see some good play.

    I think the D has everything to do with it....they can't get back when they are beaten (Chelly, Leetch), and they can't foster any kind of transition game. USA needs more Rafalski's back there....quick guys who pay attention to the defensive end.

    Part of the transition game is Defence related true ..But if our offence players are not open for reception I don't care who our are your alone. You would think tha Guys like Leach and Chelios Shouldn't have to race back.

    Hence a good forward should also cover in case.
