It was the biggest upset in the history of womenâ??s international hockey.For the first time at a major competition, the United States lost to a team other than Canada, when Sweden defeated the Americans 3-2 in a shootout in the semifinals of the 2006 Olympic tournament in Turin, Italy. Fast forward four years to Vancouver and the U.S. team — now coached by 1980 gold medalist and University of Wisconsin womenâ??s coach Mark Johnson and featuring several Badgers — has a chance for semifinal redemption Monday against Sweden.
