Rask has to get that.

You can't mess with Crosby. Watch because of that Teemu will probably never play in another Olympics

There's always yachting in the Summer Olympics for Teemu (lol)

Crosby dives!

7.8 from the Russian judge.

Rask just gave Doughty a little...

Canada up 1-0.

I sure hope Kings management are taking notes on trying to get a top-tier defenseman for Drew to play with after the break - he can be so incredible offensively if he had a legitimate defenseman playing with him for the Kings

Take an easy over there Pierre. Rask should've stopped it but to that bad

That's the kind of joke that gets better with age.

Kunitz robbed by Rask.

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

Rask makes amends there.

 

[elocomotive]

WOW! Rask makes up for it there.

Toews with a great effort, needed a couple more inches to tuck that one home.

/Yeah, that's what she said.

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

Why do they even use the larger crease if they're not calling anything?

Toews should be in the box there IMO.

Like fine wine or cheese.

Maatta not having as good a game as last time. That was a bad giveaway earlier.

Finland came out with incredible intensity, but they seem a little lost since Canada scored - making mistakes and having trouble keeping possession. I thought the Canadian defenders started out pretty flat, but they've picked it up and making some great plays now.

CBC doesn't need to fix the technical difficulties with Healy's mic, I've really enjoyed this broadcast without listening to that numbnuts.

Pretty good first period for the good guys, need the same approach in period 2.

 

[Cobiemonster]

Finland started off well but then fell off - they need to play a much better second period and start getting some more offensive chances

 

[dare2be]

Bad hand pass call.
