Russia 2, Canada 0 FINAL

[Ovechkin+Bure=Goals]

No players in the tournament is coming close to ovechkin's desire to score...

I 'm gonna say it...if A.O. would have played in the 80's ..he would have broke up Gretzky's record of 92 goals......But i'm just dreamin...we'll never know..

Congrats Russia, one heck of a game from whole squad

Now that we got our "underdog" title back I'm sure we'll play great semifinal game.

(You've got AO, we have AB, I'd call that pretty even matchup, could go either way)

Aki Berg>>>>>>>>>>AO... Not even close to an even matchup.

You forgot that they have JR also . Damn, we will be doomed

I want an unbiased opinion from non-Rangers fans, how has Tyutin played?

He tried some nice figure-skating

Speaking of which....your smile of the day is that people in Turin have been mixing Kasparitis and Evgeny Plushenko(Russian figue skater) up!

The real irony is even before I knew that I thought Plushenko looked more like Khabibulin....( Click on link to Plushenko pic below and see what u think!)

Had at least three bad plays (one AWFUL), was dangerous for Russia in this game.

Congrats to the Russian team, they played a solid solid game. I'm sad but you can't win them all. McCabe took a lot of flack for his play in the tournament but he looked good out there, Not great but good.

I guess I'm chearing for Sweeden now for Mats and Telly, but if Berg or Kaberle get gold that'd would be nice too.

I has never been a fan of ice hockey. But, hell, after this awesome game I am! It was just so fast and exciting!! We do not get much information here in Germany...basically because we just suck at ice hockey. However, Russian team deserves the gold.
