But you play the game on ice, not on paper, part 2

Swiss shock Canada with hockey win

I would have given that one goal to Canada, but other than that, I think the officiating, while awfully tight, was applied evenly. At first I thought the Swiss were nuts to come out so physically against a team of much bigger players, but it worked. And Gerber, before the game I thought they were just throwing him to the lions to give Aebischer a rest for the game Germany. Which hot goalie do you start now?

I also caught part of the Russia-Kazakhstan game (I wanted to see Ovechkin and Gonchar, but not bad enough to get up at 5:30 on a Saturday to see the start of it), and two periods of Italy-Germany. I could be watching Sweden - Latvia now, but I'm taking a break before the US-Slovakia game. I'm not sure if a full ten hours in front of the tv is a healthy thing...
