Should be great. Love this holiday tradition.
Usa has gold the past 2 years.
Local "boy" Porter Martone from Peterborough is Captain.
Lets go Canada! Play disciplined unlike last year and we should be golden!
Go Canada!

Canada had a great team on paper last year but couldn't put the puck in the net under pressure and the goaltending was weak . goaltending is key .

To many penalties tonight. We survived barely. Kim

Been a great tourney so far. Even as heck IMO. Anyone can beat anybody any given day.
That Swede/Fin semifinal was phenomenal!
Now Canucks vs Czechia, they better be on the top of their game!
LFG elbows up!
Oh and what about Cheryl "Pounder" on TSN!!

I would say the Czechs dominated the ozone time and were more disciplined near the end. They deserved the win.
Congrats to Czechia, Canucks play for Bronze...gasp...

Surprising year, that's for sure.

It was a great game, but early on the Czechs were on them hard.

It was a great game, but early on the Czechs were on them hard.

I didn't see it. We had some family over for Christmas 2.0 this past weekend, and after they left my wife and I were exhausted and took long naps, long enough that when we woke-up, it was, "Oh, ****! Look at the time!", and we had to scramble to get things ready for the work week.

I did see just now that Sweden beat Finland, and based on how badly they man-handled the US team, they may be hard to beat.

We gotta stop teaching these guys how to play hockey , most of them play in Canada or the U.S .

Watching the Sweden/Czech gold medal game: These kids are really going after it, and this is fun to watch!

3-0 Sweden just now, so I’m calling it and going to bed.

Congrats to the Swedes!
