Interesting how the IOC bitches about the US and Canada teams. Yet they completely gloss over Sweden and Finland who may not be up at the Team Canada standard but have still improved.
Interestingly Finland that is considered the power of Nordic events the president didn't show up at the Xc event yesterday. The President was at Hockey Place cheering on Finland to their Bronze medal. This will make women's hockey even bigger in Finland both the Bronze and the President choosing to be there will contribute to that.
Plus the Swede Finland rivalry that is now there will help with those teams improvement.
