Swiss Cheesin' Me

Published by Toronto Mike on February 18, 2006 @ 10:10 in Hockey Canada, Olympics

HockeyAfter one period, we're actually losing to Switzerland. Former St. John's Maple Leaf Paul di Pietro, who I just assumed was as Canadian as maple syrup and bagged milk, scored on Martin Brodeur while Martin Gerber has been stoning us at the other end.

I'm not sounding any alarm bells yet, but I was hoping this one would be a little easier. How will we fare against Russia, Sweden, the Czech Republic and USA if we're tooth and nail to beat the Swiss?

That's two goals that should have counted.

We shouldn't have put ourselves in a position where a bad call or disallowed goal or early whistle can cost us the game.

I think I'm going to be sick...

The Swiss came into this game prepared to face the Canadians, but I think the Canadians came in greatly underestimating the Swiss.

One more period left, plenty of time for Canada to get back into it!

WOW!!!

I am absolutely dumb-struck. What is this that I just watched??

My one positive I am taking from the game: If we are going to lose a game during the Olympics, than at least it wasn't a playoff game!

I hope......
