Good morning...

FYI..another good read from the National Post: here His main thesis is that Canada will continue to own the international competitions..

That's a great article. The U.S. has a lot of excellent players, and some of them bring a lot of passion to the ice. But when I watched these games it was clear to me that Canada takes these things very, very seriously -- and the players all check their egos at the door when they put on those national colors. The U.S. would be hard-pressed to match the kind of relentless drive and determination that we saw from Canada over the last couple of weeks. They really were a machine.
