well you killed the maple leaf, i think even devin would revile you for that!

But... Canada gets to seek retribution against Ovechkin. I'm hoping we win, even though I probably won't care to watch it.

I think it's gonna be a damn close game :P Did you see Russia against Finland? Almost perfect playing IMO. I hope that Canada will win though.

Seconded.

The game has been pure awesomeness so far. 4th period is about to begin and I hope we'll see shootouts.

It was a great game, but I feel sorry that Canada had those black moments in 3rd perioid which led the game
to a new rail.

If we haven't had won the winter war ages ago, we finns would be champions now :? :lol:

Great tournament anyway, and it was really nice to see that such countries as Norway and Germany
had their play on well!
It would be so nice to get some changes to the middle cast of ice hockey.

Well, it definitely was a close game! :) A nice comeback by the Russians and when the fourth period began and it was on 4 on 4, it was clear - the skillful players like Ovechkin and Fedorov would get some space, Russia would have taken it even without Nash's penalty. After all, the better team won. And did you see how happy the winners were? :)
