I've only seen two of the goals but both were horrible plays by the Russian defense.

They had rotated each game. Bobrovsky played the USA game which is the only one anyone saw... but Varlamov played against Slovenia and Slovakia.

Surprised in the score right now- I almost believed Jim Rome yesterday when he said the Russians are the best team on paper....

Ya I felt like calling in to tell him how wrong he was, but his 6 second segment on hockey had already ended.

Rome knows as much about hockey as I do about cricket.

Probably had a big interview with a college football coach to get to.

Russia reminds me of the Oilers, nothing but toe drags by "elite" players and horrific defence.

It is over! Suck it, you commie #######s. Good to see the boys really dispelled that whole mercurial, underachieving myth.

If I was Ovie, Malkin and the rest of the NHL boys, I'd beat it out of Sochi PDQ. Comrade Putin isn't going to take this well. I foresee a series of unfortuante incidents for Russian Olympians who play in the KHL.

Tough luck Ilya.

All of a sudden something feels right in the world. Now for Canada to take care of business.
