A completely predictable result. You can blame the refs all you want, but a solid team wouldn't give them the opportunity to make half those calls if they used their heads and their feet. I was really surprised how unproductive the PP was though, way to much standing there with the puck moving it back and forth on one side of the ice, or rather... chasing the puck down the ice into their own zone.
Still a great tournament to watch, love it every year, but its been a number of years since I felt Canada deserved to win it. Gold medal game will actually be a lot more enjoyable to watch without Canada in it, and that's a sad thing to say, but truthful for me...
