Alexander Edler removed from Sweden's line-up for nasty knee on knee against Eric Staal.

Shame on you Alexander Edler, dirty & avoidable.

Sweden becomes the first host team to win the IIHF world championship on home ice since USSR in '86

Sedins were really outstanding in this... too bad they aren't like that in the NHL playoffs.

Watching Canada vs Czech Republic, the part that tends to make the game suck is when the Europeans bring soccer dives into the game. To bad IIHF did not adopt NHL diving penalties.

Canada down 3 to nothing after the first, came back to win 6 to 4.

Good game

Next 3 games should be easy wins:
France
Switzerland (this one being possible hardest of the 3)
Austria
