Ten years ago, maybe Canada was dominant. But there are so many good teams now. So Canada needs to go up and up and up just like the rest of them.

We didn't play as well as we could to get the gold medal. But this is the next best. So we're going to be happy.

Yesterday? We flushed yesterday. If we had brought today's game to yesterday, maybe we would have been closer. But we can't change yesterday. We came here to win the gold. Everybody does. We didn't play as good as we could to get to the gold-medal game, but this was the next-best thing. So we're happy with it.

I thought about it, I didn't like the idea at all.

It was a really noisy crowd and hard to concentrate. You couldn't hear yourself think. We couldn't yell so we had to adjust. We were using hand signals, making up our own sign language. We had to really focus and try and block it all out.

It was a whirlwind for us. It was really busy and stressful. A little earlier would have been nicer. More time to prepare, to mentally prepare. We could have gotten more international experience.
