Canada’s Olympic Hockey Dream, 2010: Step One

Step One Complete. Next up: Swiss Timing

Just want to make it clear, posting the above score is in no way meant to diminish the excellent effort of the Norwegian hockey team.  I am not talking smack about Norway, just trying to document what I hope will be a journey towards Olympic gold for Canada’s Men.  Norwegian guys are okay by me – I saw a Visa commercial tonight that reminded me about an incident in the Turin Olympics when a Norwegian cross-country ski coach, seeing that Canada’s Sara Renner had broken one of her poles, gave her his own.  Renner went on to claim a silver medal and essays on sportsmanship exploded out of word processors all over the world.

Good on you, Norway.  Thanks for an entertaining game.
