CANADA wins 8-0 in opener VS Norway

February 17, 2010

Oh how great it feels knowing that the Sens are in 3rd place in the East for the next 2 weeks! 🙂

TEAM CANADA iced their first hockey game in the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. Was it an exciting game? Well, if you’re Canadian!! Norway must get props though, they did play a better game then what I expected. The game finished 8-0, but I predicted that it would’ve at least made it into the double digits.

MY THOUGHTS ON GAME ONE: Hmm…well the lines suprised me a little bit for sure. Did anyone see Bergeron (who I think should have never made the team ahead of sophmore sensation Steve Stamkos, or ever our boy Fisher) landing on line 1 with Sidney Crosby and Jarome Iginla? I thought to myself, well, maybe it’s because they are only playing Norway and perhaps seeking some chemistry. Hopefully that was the case, and maybe it was as Nash was boosted up to our prime line, and Iginla notched 3 goals for the hat trick. Good Job Iggy!

Another suprise, Luongo gets the start. Does this mean that Luongo is the STARTER for the tournament? (Brodeur starts tomorrow night!)

What didn’t suprise me? Well… The Basics…:
Yesturday the USA won their game
Lastnight the Canadians won their game
Early this morning the Russians won their game. (very early, game started at 1am!)

GO CANADA GO!
GO SENS GO!!
