Wouldn't call it a big upset based on Switzerland's play in this tournament. I work in Switzerland, my Swiss co-workers all had a bad feeling about this game given the lack of offense from the Swiss going into it.
I'm pretty excited for this game but might be stuck in a meeting for the first period (starts at 6pm here). Definitely would have preferred the Swiss to win, because they probably would have been more challenging to play against and I think we need that before facing the Americans.
