That was too close for comfort. The Canadian team should have had a couple more goals early in the game but missed their opportunities (and Hurme made some nice saves).
The Finns always play tough, they have a lot of talent, a lot of grit, and a lot of pride. All great attributes for hockey players since each and every game means something to them regardless of whether they are favored or not. They only lost on the scoreboard last night not on effort.
That was a nail-biter though... now on to Belarus. Let's hope that Canada doesn't take them lightly as I suspect the Swedes got caught doing.
