I, on my other blog, talked about whether we will see Canada -vs- Russia in finals this year in World Hockey Championship, which is the match I have been looking forward to for whole year, if not for years, especially after Russia lost to Finland (1-2) last year in semi finals, when IIHF World Championship was held here, in Russia.

Just few hours ago Russia won the match against Finland (very strong team), in semi finals with the score of 4-0, and I am high on emotions. Currently Canada is playing with Sweden, and after first 20 minutes period it is 1-1. I am quite sure that young and talented Canadian team will score more at the end, besides, in this game I sympathise them, as want to see them play against Russia … a super match. (it is after all held in Quebec and it is 100th year of IIHF)

So, finals is just a day away … if you into hockey, what you have to say and who you think will win in the finals and will take the GOLD medal?

As for me, I am go go go …. Р-О-С-С-И-Я.
