The Swiss goalie was outstanding -- 49 saves. He plays for the Hurricanes.
The guy who scored the two goals is actually a Canadian who married a Swiss woman. *sob* He used to play for Montreal. *sob*

As one of the older guard, it continues to please me that countries like Croatia, Estonia, Latvia and Ukraine not only can compete now, but also win.

Bibi wonders if the Kanucks and US will be playing floor hockey at the summer games. She think they might have a better chance there.

At least it wasn't decided by a shootout.

And Russia 2, Canada 0. Finalnd gets to play Russia in the semifinal game. Wonder who is going to win that one.
Canada lost because they just couldn't deal with the special teams. Both Russia's goals came on the power play (and I note, it was the Washington Rookie sensation, Alexander Olvechkin, who scored the first goal for Russia), whereas Canada squandered its eight power play opportunities.

I love the olympics and start looking forward to them about a year before they're due to start. I prefer summer to winter, but I really like ice dancing, figure skating, speed skating (NOT short track, too much like roller derby) and alot of the downhill events.
But... even if my favorite event was being shown and the fight was on for the gold medal, I'd turn it off the minute American Idol started

I can't disagree with that. We had some close chances but didn't have the offense.
I can't believe the US and the Canucks are out!!
The last eight minutes were ours but we had another goal disallowed. Not pathetic but looking around my office this evening, we all looked like we had been punched in the stomach.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.

You know what we need? A Pixie's-league hockey team. Send ourselves to the freakin' Olympics!

Excellent idea! We can be a model for our countries in gathering together a multi-national team. All pulling together.
