Richard Hungerford is picking Canada for the gold.  He reports some
disappointment in the attitude of some of the USA team members in the
semifinal victory over China.  He also likes Finland for the bronze
over China, although China has been surprisingly good.  He faults the
Finnish coach for going to a more conservative style against USA and
Canada and abandoning their earlier impressive offensive style.
 
The local (Watertown Times) paper had a good size article and color
picture from USA's come from behind victory over Finland.
