I'll be watching!
A little bit at least. Until Canada - Finland starts.

Does anyone care?

It's likely to be an easy win for the Czechs, so not really. I'll be interested to see how much Jagr plays though.

Same here.

I don't wanna miss one game, even if I watched Swi vs. Ger for only about 4 minutes

 

[shawn_kemp*]

I see the upset coming. Italy on the PP early!

 

[shawn_kemp*]

Czech republic is getting pwned right now.

 

[CSKA]

The Czechs are looking so damn bad oh boy

 

[Matti_A]

John Parco is a player that has really impressed me so far, and also the amazing Günther Hell who kept the Finland game close for a long time.

 

[shawn_kemp*]

Czech confidence level : all time low!

 

[Chimpradamus]

A save from Hell.

I just love his last name. As someone has said before, can't NJ Devils sign both Satan and Hell?

 

[Force]

It Italy wins this one, they got a damn good chance of making the QF! their last game is vs. hyped SUI...

 

[Epsilon]

1-0, and the Czechs are starting to swarm the ice now.

 

[Vikke]

1-0 Hejduk on a delayed penalty.

 

[Vikke]

2-0. Looked like Vinny Prospal. From Jagr, I think.

EDIT: From Jagr and Straka.

 

[GuloGulo]

2-0

Czechs look like they won't accept more nonsense in this tournament.

 

[Crease]

At the risk of sounding stupid, why is Italy wearing blue?

They have blue uniforms in team sports. "L'Azzurri" is their team nick name, even in hockey. It's tradition, not related to the flag.

 

[Force]

forza azzurri!

 

[TehDoak]

ANy catch ray ferraro's slip up between periods here?? "Just a good example of *uck control"

 

[Vikke]

That shouldn't be disallowed.

 

[Epsilon]

This is getting testy.

 

[Crease]

You saw that scrum develop from the faceoff.

 

[Vikke]

No fight though

 

[Vikke]

3-0, Prospal with a nice breakaway goal

 

[MrAlfie]

why did tuzzolino head to the dressing room?
game misconduct?
