Good game, from what I saw - they played their guts out - a soft goal and some lucky Russian breaks beat 'em. Damn. Oh well, a silver's still good - it's a frickin' CRIME for that Russian ass Smitov to get a medal after all the bullshit he pulled.
From what I saw, Canada started playing soft. Not taking the body, yada, yada, yada... Not that Mother Russia deserved to win, but Canada needs to use the body.
I'd say wait for the Olympics, but I just have a bad feeling that it's going to turn into a disaster like 98. I guess I'll just have to watch CBC today since it's Tripleheader Saturday!
