Intro:

USA Ice Hockey captain, Zach Parise, wants to avenge his nation's defeat in a rematch of the 2010 Winter Olympics gold-medal game against Canada in the semi-final in Sochi on Friday

Script:

Zach Parise, USA Captain (on the revenge factor vs Canada in the semi-finals)
"You know, for those of us who there in 2010 there is a sense of, you know, we get another crack at these guys in an important game. You know that gold medal game never leaves your mind, so we got a chance for a little revenge I guess. But we know what's on the line. It's a shot at the gold medal game and that's what's most important. I think there is a little extra motivation if you need it right now just because we're playing Canada."

Zach Parise, USA Captain (on the team confidence after the Czech win)
"We feel really good. You know, we are back where we expected to be in the semi-finals. Internally we know we've had a good team and we're getting better as this tournament goes along. We're playing really well as a unit and we feel good about the way we're playing."
