    Chris, you must be in hypnosis (initiated by French judges) as we all know you're a permanently adopted Swede, and we (Sweden) lost the quarter-final due to a compiler error :-) /A

      I just know some Canuck is going to show up at work still hung over (or maybe still drinking) and knock the CP server over. BE CAREFUL! :laugh: Seriously, the first two periods were great action. When the US killed the 2 high-sticking penalties, I thought that would give 'em a kick in the butt and get them to tie the game. But Canada went into a prevent defense in the third period and the US never got strong offensive rushes. --Mike-- Fetchez la vache!

Unfortunately I had to leave a few minutes into the third so I didn't get to watch the rest of it :( Sounds like the US dropped the ball (erm, puck :laugh: ) in the third.

              I think the actual notice from our service provider said something like "a service window will exist from 1am EST to 6am EST during with some outages may take place." Glad to hear it went better than expected. David http://www.dundas.com

                                    Burnaby Joe comes through in the end. BC wahoo! Canada is hockey and hockey is Canada. And the goldS are home where they belong. I think we should give an honorary medal to Salo for letting Belarus win.;)
