Thank goodness. I was hoping Sweden would play Canada in the final. But first they have to get by their main rival, Finland, and that will not be an easy task.

Would appear that neither Sweden OR Canada could get past Finland

Deja vu all over again. Finland began the tournament with a 3-1 victory over Canada and ended it with a 3-1 victory over Canada! Congratulations to the Finns in winning this interesting championship. Some weaker nations such as Great Britain, Norway and Slovakia did themselves proud, Germany did surprisingly well and Denmark ended up a cut above the weaker countries. Canada got lucky and scored two last minute goals to make it seem that they played better than they actually did.

It was fun. Let's do it again next year.
