Subject: 2006 Winter Olympics Men's Ice Hockey Tournament

The group stage is over. Now it's down to the knockout rounds.

Here's the quarter-final match-ups:

Switzerland-Sweden
Finland-United States
Russia-Canada
Slovakia-Czech Republic

There were a whole load of surprises in the group stage. Who would have thought that Switzerland could beat both Canada and the Czech Republic? Wow! And Latvia was able to draw the United States 3-3.

Here's the official site for the tournament:

The quarter-finals are over. Here's the results:

Switzerland 2-6 Sweden
Finland 4-3 United States
Russia 2-0 Canada
Slovakia 1-3 Czech Republic

I'm feeling pretty down that Canada got knocked out. We won gold last time, but we're not even gonna get a medal this year. We won't be able to have a big party in the streets like we did last time, either. How sad... :( And the United States lost, too.

Anyway, here's the semi-finals:

Sweden-Czech Republic
Finland-Russia
