We have our Olympic final as Canada will face the Czech Republic, and its been added to the file. The Canadians continued their crippling play against the overmatched Finns and while being outshot, the Czechs were able to knock off the favored Swedes. A day off tomorrow and the faceoff for gold awaits, http://www.ehechockey.com/Olympics.zip.

well at least my Finns were able to put a better effort forward than the real ones did today. Although, I will argue the first goal off that boneheaded play by Kiprusoff completed deflated them and it would have been a completely different game.

[CapsGM]

w00t. Bring on the Czechs.

[StarStruck]

unfortunate loss...the home ice (in ehm it makes a difference) determined this game in my mind, should have had a better round robin I guess haha

[SharksGM]

Well this one's pretty realistic too, the Finns seemed no more motivated to play Canada than they were in real life for the US. I would've put my money on a healthy team Sweden but it could easily go either way.
