Seriously. These are the best women hockey players in the world? I honestly think if I spent six months training for hockey I could be at that level. What a joke.
Minnesota HS teams have beaten the Women's US team, so if you have a team with some skill, you can beat them.
In regards to the actual game it was frustrating as hell. Aside from the awful, awful gameplay, the positioning and execution of the team was awful. There was probably about 7 or 8 times where a dman was open for a d-to-d or a reverse and just decided to sit in front of the net, marking nobody. Not to mention the fact they played dump and chase at the end minus the whole chase part.
And Kelli Stack is a fox, which is nice.
