The game wasn’t on live tv and hardly anyone knew the result as it happened. Imagine that now.

They've been reviewing stats from that game. Russia had a massive time of possession edge. USA only got 2 shots on goal in period 2. USA also scored - Flavorize Feb 22, 08:33 2

I remember watching the match, but it had to be on replay. Maybe even the next day or following weekend. And my dad had to explain to me … (spoilers) - ReluctantCynic Feb 22, 08:08 2
