I think Datsyuk's injury might be one of the biggest. It didn't hurt today, but when they face the other really good teams, it might hurt them. I hope he gets better fast.

That team is also loaded with talent though, they could probably find a suitable replacement. Slovakia showed today they could definitely use Gaborik's speed and goal scoring ability.

Slovakia would have made it 2-7, then Gabby hurts his groin again.

That's probably true. Neither of those teams is especially deep.

Slovakia didn't look very good against the US. I expected more from them.

Same with the Wild!! I think this pretty much means Wild v. Pens in the Stanley Cup Finals.

In honor of Herbie, a replay of his pre CCCP tilt speech of 1980...

Miracle-Herb Brooks" Pre-Game Speech - YouTube

as I did on the day it happened, pass the site of his wreck every single day on the way home from work.
