Sounds like it's going to be a good game. They're bragging up the defenses. Let's hope that doesn't mean nobody scores. |

And oh oh, Finland looks like they're falling apart. They didn't like that first goal, took a dumb penalty and went down 2. They best reorganize themselves. |

I wouldn't say the Finns look to be falling apart, I think they have a pretty good game going, probably not enough to knock off Team Canada but they are definitely giving Canada a good workout. The Finns are out shooting Team Canada 20-15, but our boys are ahead where it counts, 4-2 with 5 min left in the 2nd. |

Watched the whole thing. Good game overall. Some bad calls by the referees, who gave the Finns way too many chances, but whatever. 4-2 for the good guys when all was said and done! -J. |

Another great game! Unbelievable shots on goal difference 52-20. Slovakia's goaltender kept it from being even more of a wipeout. |

Watching Finland Denmark now, and some of the worst officiating I have ever seen at a game. Almost in the mood to write an email.
