I'm going to be more relaxed playing Sweden than these 2 USA games

I don't take Sweden lightly.

I'll fully admit that after the performance vs Latvia I was not optimistic against the US, who had looked really good previous to todays game. That said, a glimpse at the Sweden roster makes me uneasy for Sunday. There's definitely a few players there that make me hope that Canada bring their A-game.

Pussy Riot in Sochi!

Freedom of contract. We sell them guns that kill them; they sell us drugs that kill us.

"All in all, the Sochi Olympics were free from political controversy; despite warnings, no terrorist acts marred the events, and the State Department had to bring up the recently released Pussy Riot activists to have something to report on. (They were moderately beaten up by Cossacks after being set up by their own crew. Their entourage of eight men did not protect them and did not interfere with the thrashing, just enjoying the show.)"

I'm just going to reiterate how much I love the cbc webcasts this year, haven't had to watch any annoying tear-jerker bios, awkward interviews, annoying hosts, or best of all, stupid advertising from companies I generally don't like or support. And it's awesome being able to watch an entire event without interruption at my convenience.
