They also lost this second meeting, but recovered to win the United States' first ever curling medal by beating Great Britain 8-6 in the bronze medal game.

, had a poor start when they suffered a surprising 3-3 tie against Latvia. They did rebound with a win over Kazakhstan, but further losses to Slovakia, Sweden and Russia meant that the Americans finished fourth in their group, with the lowest point total of any team advancing to the medal round. In their quarterfinal against undefeated Finland, the Americans quickly fell behind 2-0, but managed to tie the game early in the second period. However, the Finns again took a two-goal lead later in the second, and while the Americans managed to score once more, they could not get closer than a 4-3 loss.

The women's team, also defending silver medalists, had a very strong round-robin showing, winning their three games by a combined score of 18-3. This, combined with Canada's domination of the other group, raised much discussion about the competitiveness of women's hockey. In the semifinals, the U.S. team played Sweden, with the favoured Americans taking a 2-0 lead early in the second period. However, the Swedes then rallied, scoring twice to tie the game, and holding off the American attack and forcing a shootout
