We have plenty of goalie options, but what we lack is a true sniper. One who does not need the usual 100 chances to score one goal. It is always the same thing with us: we work hard, we play well, but we just can't get the puck in the net! It takes SO much more effort and chances to score than it does for lets say USA and Canada. If we had those, we'd be higher up in the favorite rank... Our strength is teamwork, goaltending and attitude. Being the under dog or the dark horse of the competition. We've showed time and time again that we don't have to be in the limelight and the talk of the town. We come and do our job and go home with a medal.

Yeah, that would have been the thread clearly labeled "2014 Olympic Overall Medal Count"
