Where would you rank tonight's loss in terms of all-time upsets?
(After such hot starts, I wonder if they would be near the likes of the 2007 Patriots and 2015-16 Warriors. Not necessarily that there was a defining moment like the Tyree catch or LeBron chase-down block but for such a stacked team, these losses are still surprising.)- Show previous comments 4 more

I think Canada just lacked the top-end, game-breaking talent to play from behind. They were a team full of moderately skilled guys who skate fast and work their asses off. It works wonders when they're even or playing ahead, but they lacked the high-end skill to break down a team that's happy to just collapse around the net and not let you get into the home plate area all night.
