Didn't Finland play Canada really tight in the last Olympics? I remember the semi final being in doubt until the third period.
yes. I believe they were leading by 2 goals going into the third. was a tough game but Canada pulled through.

The Canadian women play those AAA midgets with the intent to challenge themselves. They expect to lose most of them. But the only way to improve yourself is to continually challenge. There's no point in playing games that will not test your skill and force improvement. BTW, have you seen a Canadian AAA midget team play? 15-17 year old boys/men at the AAA level are something for even the best women to reckon with.

I was making a point to the mod who ripped on the US for losing to a top high school team (15-18 year old boys/men).

I suppose that post should have been directed to him then ;)
 
What an awesome game! This was a huge upset and in Sweden's favor for a change! Kim Martin was stellar in goal, absolutely incredible today! Had to celebrate with some ice cream, still can't believe this happened! Totally awesome! :D

:bow: Kim Martin
 
Great performance by the swedish team and by Kim Martín in particular!! :clap:

Did you know that Stefan Liv practiced with the girls yesterday as Kim rested due to injury. Pernilla Winberg was one of the girls who practiced shootouts on Liv, guess if that payed off. ;)

Did he look pretty good, or no?

It does not guarantee Canada anything. They need to beat Finland first. If they beat Finland then they will face a hot goalie and a team with tons of confidence. I still think Canada will win gold but it is not a guarantee. Ask the USA.
Note the word "virtually".

She has a bad habit of having that mouth moving a little too much at times.
 
Last time I checked a team leader is supposed to be yelling to her teammates, that's part of being a leader. I also have to say that based on the comments and attitude of most Canadiens around this thread I will be wearing my Sweden jersey the day of the gold medal game.

Good, it won't matter because Canada's women don't choke.

Who cares? :dunno:
 
If you don't care then why respond? I always laugh when people claim not to care about something so much that they have to write about it. :biglaugh: Canada's women don't choke? 2005 WC's 4-0 38gf 0ga and then lose in a shootout after a 0-0 regulation? More laughs. Stick to complaining about big, mean America. :biglaugh:
