Finns score again.

If the Russians lose they whole team may get an all expense vacation to Siberia.


"Feeling the pressure" is a cliche of sorts, but I guess it truly applies to the Russians right now. They've been thinking about being here ever since Sochi was awarded the Winter Games. And now they make the goaltender switch.

Eh, they don't live up to expectations at any of these Olympics.

Man Tuukka stopped that puck well.

Very scary moment with the delayed penalty here.

Anyone who is watching the game. How individualistic does Russia look. That is the one fatal flaw I have noticed

I think this is something all Russians are prone to-even in the NHL I notice Ovie often plays selfishly.

ok so our Bruins best case scenarios are all happening:

Chara is done, and not hurt. Praise the lord.

Rask is playing out of his mind, and gonna come home feeling strong.

Krejci healthy

Bergeron promoted to the top line of team Canada

Loui contributing, healthy

We get a couple of them back soon when Sweden or Czech lose. Man this is great. Even better is one of them bringing back a gold. Great for team morale.

Very little movement on that pp by Russia. Everyone but the puck carrier was standing still.

What? Sweden is facing Finland/Russia in the semi-finals and is assured two more games.

Russia played with 6 players for ages. 7 on the ice with possession for a while, I think.

This Russian team is just terrible, No PP at all

They don't work together as a team.

They have talent but the talent doesn't play together.

Rask is looking real good though-he has made some great saves.
