I'm done watching these games. I knew I shouldn't care about it.

Austria PP, might as well be even strength for Canada.

I saw a similar comment elsewhere. It was something like "Benn to the box. Guess we're playing at even strength now."

By and large, Canadian media types are very smug. I will rejoice in Don Cherry and Glen Healy's misery if their 'boys' don't medal.

Maatta is just so good. Its unreal. He's been the best defenseman for Finland so far, its awesome. He looks years above his age.

Maatta has more points than Sid.

Maatta will get the chance to shutdown Sid in a couple days. Can - Fin setting up to be a pretty good match. I pick Finland to play spoiler in this tournament at some point.

I still think the losses of Filpulla and Koivu especially will be too much for Finland to overcome to play "spoiler" for anyone.

Kunitz is doing a pretty good job of shutting Sid down. His only point came with Marleau & Carter.

Even most Canadians don't like Cherry or Healy.

[Pitts]

The Austrian team looks so small compared to Canada.

[meecrofilm]

Uh-oh, Barkov now maybe hurt for Finland..

[Idoit40fans]

I don't know how someone can not like Healy the analyst. He's so entertaining.

[meow]

Healy the analyst is great. Healy in every other aspect of life is a turd

[largegarlic]

Maatta again showing great discernment about when to go to the net.

Canada really spreading the ice-time around to the forwards. No forward received fewer than 17 shifts and no more than 20 shifts.

Scratch that. Benn and Bergeron received 21 and 22 shifts.

That's at least 17 shifts too many for Kunitz. He's been garbage.

You really think that? I don't think he's looked worse than some other Canadians. Bergeron and Nash jump to mind.

[MRandall25]

Toews has been relatively invisible too

[meow]

At least Toews has been killer on the dot.

[npv708]

I didn't think St. Louis looked good at all today. Whiffed on a few prime chances.

Olli Maatta is currently tied for the tournament lead in points.

Bergeron is currently the 4th highets scoring forward on the team behind Marleau, Getzlaf and Carter.

Interesetingly, Kunitz and Subban are the only players on Canada who aren't a +.
