Angela Ruggiero Expect Quotations

I think Americans expect gold. You're idolized when you win a gold medal. We really put our lives on hold for this long. We've got a lot inside of us right now.

We won't face the same pressure against the Swiss that we'll face against a Finland or a Canada. But I expect a battle. It is the Olympics. Hopefully, every country brings their best game.

She played like I expect her to play -- perfect.

I've never played a consolation game in my life. We expected to be playing for a gold medal.

My sister is stuffing the ballot box. I know I'd be fired. I'd expect it. But you know, that would be an interesting career move.

You don't expect to go to a shootout. We didn't even know the protocol. We wanted to win the game flat-out.

I came here to win a gold medal. But am I proud of our team? Yes. We showed a lot of character after hitting rock bottom after the loss to Sweden. No one expected to be playing for the bronze.
