Sweden is actually up 1-0 at the end of the 1st Period. Interestingly, Switzerland has only taken one shot on goal so far, whereas Sweden has 10 shots. 

Looking ahead to the Men's Finals, tomorrow is going to be fairly unproductive for me as I switch between the feed for the game and attempts - stunted attempts - to do actual work.

USA-Canada tomorrow...I have been waiting for this game for 4 years.  I can't count the number of times I have watched that Parise goal over and over.  It's revenge time. 

The women's final should be awesome as well. 

USA! USA! USA!

Canada has a very attractive ginger on their squad named Kaitlyn Lawes. Captivating, imo. Meanwhile they just let Sweden tie it up at 3. Canada made a mistake with a complete whiff in the 5th end. Skip Jenny Jones had enough if that and took over the the throwing duties from both ends of the sheet after that.

PK was awesome and they picked up the play at the end of the period. However, I think Canada had the better play, over all, that period. I would think the Canucks will press, hard, for the first 5-7 minutes of the 3rd.
