Czechs crush Swedes
6-1
The third period of their round robin game set the message and turned this team around. They will now play Canada after we put aside Slovakia on Wednesday. Too bad - I think they are the second best team in the tournament.
Russia will beat the US tonight.
UPDATE: Okay, I was wrong. Who would have thought that after years of underwhelming hockey fans that Keith Tkachuk would actually rise to the occasion? The US will play Finland in the US. The big factor in this game will be Kiprusoff - though I don't think the Russian loss can be pinned solely on Bryzgalov.
