As a fan of Canada, this is just painful to watch. It is difficult to play these games and retain both the dignity of the winning and losing team. Frankly, I hope that they have another sport to show don't stick with all 60 minutes of this slaughter.

I'm amazed at the size of the Italian goaltender. She is *tiny*. Her jersey comes halfway down her peewee sized pads.

Italy has two d-women who are only 15 years old! :eek:

The italian goalie is keeping the score down. She is pretty decent, nice stop on that breakaway.

At least the Swiss team has an absolutely incredible goaltender and limited the US team to scoring 6. This Italian team is kinda a sad joke...

What does that have to do with the Canada-Italy game? :dunno:

I want to see Canada really embarrass them.

Something along the lines of 15-0.

I hope that they don't let up. Letting up is for suckers!

Nah, they won't. They want to all get a kiss from Don Cherry because they don't run up the score :naughty:

I dont think Canada should run up the score.

Italy has 2 15yearolds, they all look like they're only 5 feet. I feel bad for them.

I see the Italians must have watched the "How to play hockey" by Darcy Tucker DVD because they had players down on the ice for 2 of the goals but popped straight back up after they scored and thats not including the one who decided to headbutt the goal post after another goal.

Italy's goalie is doing a great job. The score should be 17-0 right now but she's been making some big saves. How big is she by the way? It looks like her head bearly comes up over the crossbar.

Well, it's only 5-0 after 1 period. The only reason it's that way is because of the Italian goalie. She has been doing a great job.

Also, Canada isn't playing with intensity, like they would against stronger teams like the US. Another reason why it's only 5-0.

The Italian goalie is only 5'3 by the way, talk about tiny!

I applaud the italian team though. They know they have no chance, but you can see they are at least trying.

Italy playing Canada women would be like the Canadian cricket team playing England or Australia.

The result would never be in doubt but its just a matter of whether Canada would get into double figures for either game. :D
