Hopefully they are on the way to GOLD!!!
Twelve teams enter the round robin and play each other once. I believe the top six teams then play each other in a quarter final and a semi final. the best two teams play for the gold. The winner gets the gold. The other gets the silver. The next two teams play for the bronze.
If that isn't right it's damn close.......;-):lol:

JLM Talloola has forgotten more than I know about hockey.
Can't find the Russia-Latvia game on the CTV link.
Anyway Canada started slow against Norway and it took them a while to outskate/wear down the squareheads but the lines really started to click halfway through the 2nd period.
Luongo had very little work but did you see how close he came to putting the puck in his own net right @ the end of the game?
He's a real adventure outside his crease.
I'll keep my expectations low for Canada, we aren't the only ones who can play this game.
No, we aren't the only ones who can play this game but we do have a lot of skilled players and the game is entertaining to watch. I think we can be as optimistic as any country with a team here.

True, but people here have a swagger when it comes to hockey and I think it's unwarranted especially given our record in the Olympic games.
I will cheer them of course but I won't be shocked if we lose nor will I spew hate at our athletes if they don't bring home gold.
We don't live in Don Cherry's perfect world anymore, Europeans and Russians can play our game well.
