Those two have looked outstanding thus far.

Top 5 in this year's draft post-Matthews is going to be very interesting.

This edition of Team Canada is not good.

Finland beats the Czechs 5-4 and the Finns will be Canada's opposition in the quarter-finals.

Sweden defeats Canada 5-2 to complete a perfect record in the preliminary round. Of note, the player of the game for Sweden was a Canucks draft pick (Gustav Forsling) whom they traded to the Hawks for Adam Clendening (who was sent to Pittsburgh as part of a package to acquire Brandon Sutter). I guess what I'm trying to say is it looks like the Hawks may have a pretty good player (like they need any more).

damn!!! no sooner do I type this, the Ruskies score 5 minutes into OT to win. I really would have loved to see the Danes pull off the upset somehow.

This is a pretty wild game between Finland and Canada - The Finns just took a 4-3 lead late in in period 2.

He hasn't look good today. Canadians losing their composure in that 2nd period.

Marner!! 4-4

That didn't last long - 5-4 Finns.

/That number 4 on the Finnish defense is such a smooth skater.

 

[dash]

Marner with a brace. 5-5.

/Last shot wins?

Bad hit on Strome by Laine and the Finnish fans are doing their best Philly Eagles fans imitation.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Was the finn who hit strome the same guy who took the strome crosscheck and dove behind the net in the 2nd?

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Marner is taking over the game.
