...Four years later at Salt Lake City, published rumors had Team U.S.A.'s players stomping on the maple-leaf flag on their locker-room floor in a psych-up ceremony. "There was no validity" to the story, Granato says. "I was highly offended because as captain, I just wouldn't allow that to happen." But the damage had been done. The Canadians were frothing. And during the gold-medal final, U.S. referee Stacey Livingston dealt a lopsided number of penalties to Canada, which added to their fury.
