judging how Seabrook and Keith were able to shut them down

Teams look good on paper, every team does

I dont think so.

Yeah. That is true. Canada has huge depth and so many other great Canadian born players that didn't make the cut. We could easily have TWO teams!!

gnat. 02-13-2010 02:23 PM

damn kesler! guaranteeing that he'll beat us! GO CANADA GO!!!!

1exotic 02-13-2010 02:27 PM

Go Canada... Vancouver will go ape shit if we win... if it doesn't go are way I'm rooting for Russia.

how much do you think semi final and bronze medal tickets will go for? I have a chance getting them for $500 a piece and tempted to flip the bronze medal ones.

sunny_j 02-13-2010 03:36 PM

go canada go

rsx 02-13-2010 04:00 PM

Russia's scoring depth is absolutely insane: Ovechkin, Malkin, Kovalchuk, Semin, Datsyuk, Radulov + Markov, Gonchar.

G: Bryzgalov and Nabokov.

WOW. Insanely good on paper.

^^^ but that slovak goalie made some awesome saves... she had no support from her D though...

btw, it's 4-0 canada now. and we're not even halfway through the first period.

MG1 02-13-2010 05:24 PM

My son's at the game. Got free ticket. Damn it.

StylinRed 02-13-2010 05:34 PM

wow... they should just play 1 period for the game.... like jesus

vapour_lock 02-13-2010 05:36 PM

lol #18 just get her ankle broke.
serisouly though watching this is just stupid.. should institute a mercy rule like in little league

Noir 02-13-2010 05:38 PM

Women's Canadian Hockey Team should just play shut down hockey at this point. No need to run the score past 7.

There kinda is. If Canada stops at 7-o for example, and another team decides to run a train on the same team Canada beat, then the other team will have an advantage in goals for if the tournament got to a tie breaker for who advances

I see your point. Although atm, watching Canada continiuing to lay the decimation at a team that's already clearly outclassed from the first 10 minutes is starting to get painful to watch from this point in.

13- 0 2nd period atm.

TOS'd 02-13-2010 06:24 PM

Women's hockey should just be Canada vs USA in a best of 5.

Tim Budong 02-13-2010 06:36 PM

as said in the last page, like the WJC, its by goal count
theres always these complaints that teams like Canada will run up the score and show no mercy

regardless, imagine when we play Bulgaria

Womens hockey is young. You need to include other teams. If you don't, it'll always be a two or three team tournament. It used to be just Canada and US. Other teams are improving. And they are improving because of the chances they are getting. Like the chick on the Slovak team said. It's like a dream come true playing in this rink and participating with the best in the world.

One day Slovakia will become a worthy opponent. Besides, it's about the spirit of the games. Can you imagine the games if only the very best competed?

If you listened to the commentators tonight, they were talking about the time they limited the games to 6 teams. It didn't work.

I don't know........... some pretty cute girls in hockey gear........


Can't wait for the big Canada vs USA game. Such rivalry.

Noir 02-13-2010 07:23 PM

Anyone else rooting for Russia for the Finals to make a CAN v. RUS showdown? Or people more in favour of CAN v. SWE final (defending olympic gold + Forsberg + twins :))?


edit:

I just realized that sounded cocky as I'm sounding like Canada is a shoe-in for the Final. :lol. My bad.

Tim Budong 02-13-2010 08:44 PM

FAILL for that last quote

ITS OK TO BE COCKY BRO!

Harvey Specter 02-13-2010 10:05 PM

Can't wait for the men's hockey.

fliptuner 02-13-2010 10:37 PM

Yeah, no "mercy" rule with uneven matches make for really high scores.

Then again, even if they did have a mercy rule, we would've been stuck watching them skate around for 2 hours.

fliptuner 02-13-2010 10:47 PM

Haha SVK played BUL in an olympic qualifier(?)

Final score 82-0
