He is a special player and if he doesn't bring Sioux fans out of their seats nothing will. Oh I forgot, we have to remain seated.

Exactly, the Canadians have met the Russians in Championship games many times and the Canadians have had to live with Russians who dive to take penaltys. Therefore, there is no sympathy for Russian players, especially a disrectful showboater like Ovechkin.

Hey of course they can't sing, they're Canadian hockey players. Just glad we didn't have to listen to the choir boys from Russia.

My second prediction and wish came true too. The Canadians knocked the kiss- blowing Ovechkin out of the game with a shoulder injury

I don't know if it is just this radio station but I have never heard so much crowd noise at the new arena. It reminds me of broadcasts from the old arena and it sounds great!

Five minute major to Russia for highsticking. I knew Canada would have a field day with this undisciplined Russian team. I hope they keep running the score because the Russians deserve it.

I doubt he will take any heat at all from Canadians. First of all I believe he was drafted by a US team, the TriCity Americans. The rest of the WHL will like the move because they won't have to play against him. His family and friends in Manitoba will like the move because they can come and watch him play on weekends.

I think his career will turn out just like Jagr's, another kiss blowing showboater. Ovechkin has lots of talent and will tally plenty of Pro points, but in the end he will move from team to team as he annoys owners, fans and teammates alike. I wish they had both pursued figure skating and left the game to the real players of the best game on the planet. Then their kiss blowing would be understandable. Heck they could have given them to each other.

Maybe portions of the post were exagerations or high expectations; however; you can't convince me that Goligoski looked better than Lee. Goligoskis errors in judgement contributed to an opposition goal in each and every game. And how old is he again and exactly where is he playing.

I hope the Canadian D-Man Phaneuf knocks the kiss-blowing Fag-Ov off of the planet.

What fantastic news. Toews is supposed to the second best 17 year old Canadian forward after Crosby. It looks like the Sioux will be contributing to both the US and Canadian teams for next years World Juniors.

Actually, the winner of the US vs Sweden game will have to play the Ruskies.

I guess they will be partying as they just smacked the Finns 8-1

I joined this site to hear about Sioux hockey and instead I find a girlie chat site. Why is this tolerated?

I thought Lee looked alot better than at least three of the other D-Men. Keep in mind that he is a highschool player and he was up against quite a few Pro players from the Swiss League, a league that features many former NHLers even when there isn't a strike.

Final Score Canada 8 Sweden 1

I would like to see Canada play Russia too because they would have a field day with the Russian defense.

With his antics and flair Ovechkin looks alot like Jagr, in which case Washington can have him. What suprised me was the poor quality of the Russian defense and their lack of discipline. Based on last nights game I look forward to a US/Canada Gold Medal showdown.

Unfortunately, with no Center Ice this winter, Team Canada's games will only be televised on the Canadian Network TSN. I am hoping that some of the local sports bars here in Colorado Springs will be able to pick them up.

Did anyone find a Boxscore for last nights game against Germany. If so could you please post it. Thanks

DMT was pointing out that the Hockey News picked the US to finish first on their website.

Hockey News picks the US to win the tourney? I thought they hired hockey experts at Hockey News. Sorry, but team US doesn't have a Zach Parise in this years line-up or the supporting cast. Team USA were fortunate to beat Germany 5-3 last evening. Meanwhile Canada has crushed Finland 6-0 and Switzerland 5-0. I still believe the US can medal but it will take a full team effort to do so. When Russia and Canada finally meet in the playoffs the Gold medal will be decided.
