Trash performance

Sigh… I’m sure many Canadians watched this afternoon’s game completely aghast. Last year gold, this year garbage. No longer is Canada the automatic favourite for Gold, and may never be again. The Europeans have clearly arrived. I wasn’t impressed with any of the games the Men played. The effort was sporadic, we seemed tired and were outplayed (and beaten) by hungrier teams. The lack of offense, scoring opportunities and shots on goal generated by Team Canada was very disappointing. So Canada comes home empty handed. Hopefully this will wake up Gretzky’s crew… clearly something is amiss here. Sigh…and what hurts most is that show boat dog Ovechkin scored the winning goal. Double sigh.

On the bright side, Cindy Klassen’s performance has been amazing! Four medals so far with potential for more?! Phew. The Canadian women are representing!
