glad & sorry

Canada beat Sweden 4-1 for the Women’s Hockey gold medal. I watched most of the second half of the game. It was a pretty good game. One of those where the dominant team had many chances to make really pretty plays and of course, score on several of them.

I didn’t know that the Swedes almost didn’t field a team this time round because of the higher skill level of the Americans and Canadians in this sport. Well, thankfully they did. I hope that it stirs some interest in women’s hockey in Europer. Otherwise, we won’t see it around next time.
