You would think that it would be the ultimate slap in the face for the guy who might go down as the greatest ever (as painful as it is for me to say).
I do think that since he is allowed to handle the puck more (because of olympic rules), actually hurts him because it's something he doesn't get to do anymore and he is excellent at it. But he does it so much that, it seemed last night he was always scrambling trying to get back into position and I believe it cost him on at least one goal.
I not a big Emrick fan either, but I think him and Eddie O did a good job last night. I enjoyed the game/telecast very much (but the outcome probably had a big thing to do with that). Also for the most part last night except for the late penalty against the U.S., the refs did a good job letting them play.

i'm a marty fan and with all the traffic he had right in front of him all night. i thought he played a heck of a game. look at all the odd-man rushes he faced and Started odd-mans in canada's favor. marty didn't play a bad game, IMO.
