final four determined, Canada not there.

Surprisingly, Canada was ousted from the tournament on Wednesday when they got shut out by Russia 2-0. Since the US had already been knocked out, Canada was the next logical choice of a team for me to root for. However, that went by the wayside as well.

I think Finland will win the tournament. However, I'll be aggressively rooting for the Czech Republic. Finland will take on Russia and Czech will take on the "evil" Swedes on Friday to determine who will play for gold.

In support of Canes defenseman Frantisek Kaberle, and in support of injured winger Josef Vasicek, I'll be giving 101% of my support to team Czech.
