S63 PT #1: Tie the Knot

Tie games are the neutral factor in every game. Every game starts 0-0. When anyone wants a mental reset, they say picture the score as 0-0. It is just net neutral. Being up by 1 increases the pressure on you to keep them from tying the game up, but you have a sense of relief, that if the worst come to worst, you are tied again. Not losing. Being down 0-1 in a crucial game, say the gold medal game of the WJC, that brings the stress and tension out. You are on the edge of your seat, hoping, praying, for someone to grace you with that tying goal. Giving you momentum to carry into maybe a win? Maybe overtime? Being down in any game is a lot more stressful than being up or tied in general. You now know the pressure is all on YOUR team to preform and not the other way around.
