They steamrolled their opposition, just allowing 2 power play goals both by Sweden

Yes the Girls were awesome!!  At least the Swedes put up a bit of a fight!!  But for some reason, with Canada only getting 26 shots, I think that they might have let off the gas with a 4-0 lead in the second!!  I hope that Mojo is right though, it would be nice to have some compition in 2010!! ;)  Would be great for women's hockey as well!! ;D

I think the girls eased off after the 4-0 lead, too. I think Canada and the U.S. will dominate again in 2010. It will take longer than 4 years to build better players in Sweden and other European countries. It takes a LONG time to build top notch hockey players and Canada and the US are at least ten years ahead of everyone else. It's especially difficult for the women's program because a lot of the best players retire early because they want to start families.

Well a real competition would be good. But not something like last winter olympics in the states. The competition is with the referees not team USA.  ::)
