Isn't great it that you guys don't have to talk about figure skating?

No Ice Dancing is done, it's woman singles, you have a chance for a medal with that poor girl that lost her mother.
He would have said that if they had won.

Not that it really bothered me but anyone else kind of dissapointed in that 3rd period? Holy anticlimatic.
And Canada vs the US in the womens final tomorrow!! Should be a good one.
Should be, both teams combined scored like 100 goals against less than 10.

BTW - If anyone knows the wherabouts of Sidney Crosby, Pavl Daystuk and Russia's defense, please let me know.

As least you knew Malkin, Semin, Kovachuk were playing. Where in the hell was Datsyuk?
That call on Semin at the end was terrible.

Maybe he had to defer to the coach's crappy game plan, which apparently involved a lot of passing and cycling in their own end. Usually Alex has a big hit or two in the first period to establish tone, but he barely tried to play that kind of game.
I noticed a few times Ovie trying to get into the game and him being called back.

Yup.
The big guns didn't do much. You only knew they were there because the announcers kept talking about them.

Anyone see the handshake? They were focused on Crosby and Ovie. Ovie gave Crosby a pad in the stomach after the handshake. Good sportsmanship and a classy thing to do considering the rivarly and the stage. Maybe he's not such a douche afterall.

In last year's playoff game 7 when the Pens blew out the Caps, he was still flying around the ice playing physical and trying score even when the game was well out of reach.

Canada worked awesome as a team, Russia refused to play as a team
I thought he should have been out of there after the 4th for sure
Loved it, funny coming from the fool that had Russia all the way to the gold
I've never jumped on any bandwagon, blow me

Great game played by Team Canada...Having Toews with Richards and Nash was pure genius.
And Keith and Doughty as the top defensive pairing is terrific, too.
Let's see if Canada can sustain this level of play in the next game.

What must not be lost is that Toews, who has the main role as a checking line center, is tied as the team's leading point getter...and also leading everyone with a +11.
That and the fact that no one (not even the haters) can say he's ever taken a play off. His all-around abilities is really something...
Toews = Canada's MVP...
