Women are in tough vs the U.S. in hockey today.
Canada 🇨🇦 won't have their wonderful captain, Poulin in the
lineup. Saw the game and she certainly tweaked something
in her leg.

The men's team is putting on a clinic so far. This is fun!

EDIT: didn't realize Morrissey got hurt. That isn't fun.

Competitive first 1/2 and then, for me, the 🇨🇦 lads took over
Loved that solid hit by McD in the first

Also did not realize that JMo got hurt. Crossing fingers that
it is nothing threatening his regular season

No Morrissey for today's game vs. SUI. Maybe - hopefully - just a precaution.

All indications are Morrissey will be out again tomorrow vs. FRA. It doesn't sound like he's been ruled out the rest of the way, though.

It's a non-contact sport and Sweden is still crying. Oscar FO, I loved it. Need a little heat in curling. Double touching after the hog line, really Oskar???

Well, Canada to the Gold medal game but it wasn't impressive. 2-1 win, out shot the Swiss 46-8. Canada will have to find some goal scoring to beat the powerful US team.

Canada's women's hockey team is going to have to play a near perfect game to beat the US. The US has a good PP, and look much faster then Canada.

Canada played a pretty solid 1st. period. Need to keep the pressure on.

US had most of the pressure in 2nd. but Canada up 1-0.

Tough one. But, US played a better OT.

Yes letting the US tie it up in the last couple mins of regulation and then losing in OT is choking

That is some take.

The US were the favourites going into this game.
