Sorry to see team USA go out to the Russians. Had to work today so missed the game. Going to catch the highlights later if possible. Just hoping Canada are prepared for their game shortly.

well.....maybe not...Canada 4-0....
With respect to the U.S vs. Russia Game....I was pulling for the states particularly in the 3rd period. They heavily outplayed the russkies in that period but had a hard time finding that elusive goal....bummer.\

ok.....its 7-0 for Canada.....bit of a shut down here.
We will have to keep an eye out for Sweden......the team that, in my opinion, is the chippiest, dirtiest of the teams.....going to be interesting.

if it comes down to north american/dirty/chippy.....i think we have an advantage if the refs allow it to be real hockey. all our kids are used to that, only a select few european players can deal with our style of the game. jmo

think your reading something into the hat thing that isn't there.the fans in Toronto have been nothing but fully supportive of the danes in all their games .actually the fans have been good to all the teams with several standing ovations after some of the games.the danes got another standing o tonight also.

Tending to agree with this. Seemed a whole lot of appreciation for Denmark for their efforts and the unexpected making of the quarter finals. Crowd seemed to be behind them in every game except when playing Canada.
