We grew into the game and got as strong as the U.S.. We have to thank the U.S. and Canada for the possibility of playing against them. Sweden is now part of the league of the top women's teams.
Friday night, home from work, have your first beer, then sit in front of the TV and don't leave it.
I think (the Canadians') forwards are better than their defense. They don't have to practice much defense.
My players have watched the movie 'Miracle' over and over again.
Italian Olympic sports people should be proud that they went out and played the best teams and played hard.
We need a big game from our girls. If we're ready for tomorrow, I don't know. If we're ready for Vancouver, I know.
We have such a young team. At one point in the second period we had on the ice five skaters and a goaltender with an average at of 17.7 years.
Tough lessons are the only way to learn this game.
We watched Miracle over and over. Also, we skated a lot in preparation.
We watched Miracle for the first time in Lake Placid last year.
We were down 4-0 and we said we should win the last period of the Olympics and we did that so (the players) were happy for the silver medal. But they were bitter they didn't play so well in the beginning of the game.
In penalty shooting, it's like a lottery. We had a 16-year-old skating in there and putting the first one in, and the USA had two hit the crossbar. So it's small things that gave us this win.
