Poor Russia

Poor Russia.  They won a hard fought game against the Czech Republic yesterday to win their Group B and advance straight to the quarter-finals.  Their reward?  A probable quarter-final game against Canada.

I'll bet the last team Russia wanted to face in the quarters is Canada.  Tomorrow night, we'll get another tune-up against Germany, another chance to warm up Roberto Luongo and reset our lines and focus.

Then, it's Canada vs. Russia for a chance to play in the semi-finals.  That's going to be awesome.

Poor Russia.
