This isn't the first time this had happened this season. We played a four game series against the US in the fall and they outscored us 24-7 in the 4 games

Holy moly!

I just hope, that it doesn't end in some 0-10 massacre

 the rest of the world is catching up in woman’s hockey the USA and other countries have gone with youth

[copravolley 635]

It was more of a Canada-Usa duo and nothing.

This  team looks quite awful, that's what happens when you go with 33 year old veterans over youngsters like Primerano and Kraemer  

I'd be happy if we can hold on to silver

The gap between  and  is bigger than the gap between  and . I think we need to stop talking about a big two, there is a big one and the rest is fighting for silver.

 

Personally I hope  fails to make the final so Hockey Canada is forced to have a reckoning. The women’s program has been failing upwards for a long time and I think it has finally caught up to us in a way that is impossible to overcome with some good performances from individual players.
