The NHL decided to ditch their annual All-Star game/skills competition this year to throw an Olympic style hockey tournament comprised of the USA, Canada, Sweden and Finland. They play a round robin style followed by the top two teams meeting in the final.
Last night was the first game between Canada and Sweden and it was pretty entertaining. The USA and Finland play tonight.
My only gripe (but I understand) is that Russia and I believe one other nation is barred from competing. Russia would be the team to beat IMO
Anyone else going to watch?
