Good evening ladies and gentlemen. The World Cup round robin is over and 4 teams have been sent home. Now the rules change, no more shootouts, they play until someone scores. Three of the teams left are no surprise for the most part, but one is. The Misfits of Europe stunned the widely criticized USA Hockey entry and find themselves in a #WhyNotUs situation after little expectation at the beginning of play.
