Wow... Canada wasn't prepared for today's game, either that or the Russians lost their first game intentionally.
Canada needs to bounce back in the next game.

Okay, Canada beats the US then gets thumped by Russia... now the US beats Russia 3 to 1.

Our Canadian team had better beat Germany tomorrow.

Am I alone in HATING the stupid music played when a penalty is called and the player is making his way to the box ???

Who is allowed to make these decisions ???????????

I'm always amazed at the small nations and how they do against much larger countries. You look at the different size of each countries minor hockey system and how well some small countries do. So I think, what do they do that is different than say Canada who placed 6th last year.

Switzerland is about the size of Newfoundland and placed 2nd in their division as of today.

I have a few idea's why, what are your thoughts?

Since we're asking questions. Can someone tell me WHY, when in most of this tournament we have two games being played at the same time, and most homes in Canada have recorders so games can be taped and watched. Why do the play by play and color man doofuses continually tell the score of the other game. Do they not know that their viewers might be taping the other game !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
