Olympic Links:

Canadian women advance to gold medal game against - who else - the States

I know, I know, shocking. Still good to see, though.

Commentary: Don't give up on the women's game

I doubt any of us would, but I'm linking this one anyway.

René Fasel: Women's ice hockey will 'never' leave the Olympics

Not that it's all up to him, but it's nice to be reassured.

Price to start for Canada, Kunitz back with Crosby

I don't really care which of Price or Luongo starts, but the Kunitz thing is... well, disappointing is a strong word. I mean, whatever, Canada should still be able to handle the Swiss.

America vs. Canada

DGB and some other writer at Grantland are a little ahead of themselves as neither team has advanced yet, but it's not much of a stretch, either.

Team Canada ready for tight games

Elliotte Friedman tells fans to be ready, too.

Bettman not even thinking about 2018 Olympic participation

...Yet. Tim Wharnsby has a rather obvious story.

Team Canada's lack of power play time defies logic

I think that's too strong a statement. Teams are being careful against the Canadians, and they'd be stupid not to. In all likelihood, more chances will come going forward.
