Aren't there more important things to get pissed about. It wasn't like there were people in the arena. I read they had been called back out on the ice after the fans had been cleared out for a picture and hung out for awhile afterwords. So it was kind of an extension of the locker room at that point in the sense it was closed to fans. You would think from the uproar that the stands were packed with impressionable ten year olds.

I don't have a problem with anything the women did. Minus the cigars it's not like that exact same scene doesn't happen every night in every hockey rink in this country. Hockey Canada had to issue an public apology despite the fact that they probably also had no issue with it. However if the men's team were to do the same thing on Sunday after all the flap surrounding the women Hockey Canada would be pissed, and rightly so, at the men's team intentionally putting them in an embarrassing position with the IOC and media.
On another note, 6-1 final...... congratulations to Team USA on winning the Olympic silver medal

Meh, it was merely our clever plan to lull you into a false sense of confidence

Should be a great game on Sunday, the 2 teams are actually very equally matched. Of course we said that about the Russian's and the Finn's too, so let's hope both teams show up ready to play this time because honestly blow out hockey is boring to watch regardless of which side is winning.

True, but I wasn't being paid enough to report substitutions.

Blowout! Looks like it could be Canada and USA again for the gold metal round. That would be intense, again.

That arena will be nuts for a USA/Canada match-up for the gold.
