Feck Sidney Crosby. The guy is good and will be great in time for 2010, but he's not Olympic level yet. Comparing him to Ovechkin is apples and Bananas. Malkin is a better comparison, but unfair because Russia's depth isn't as good as ours.

We suffered from several hits to defence and sub-par performances from our veterans. It was sad really. I reckon Staal and Spezza could have contributed a lot better, I personally would have picked Staal over Nash and tried to find a way of fitting Spezza in, but that's just me. And I wouldn't have liked to not lose two elite defencemen.

But yeah, hopefully we'll be better in time for 2010. By that time I'll hopefully be playing for the Canucks, so I'll make Team Canada and beat the shyad out of any Russian except for Maxim Afinogenov, coz me and my mate Antony adopted him.
