Command Analysis

Canada

Canadaare one of the favourites to win the Olympic gold, even though they came to Beijing without their main stars. The Canadians had a confident start to their campaign as they crushed Germany in the opening match. Team Canada seized the initiative in the first minutes of the game and scored three unanswered goals in the first period. The Germans tried to make a comeback, but Canada kept attacking and eventually won with a score of 5:1.

USA

The USA traditionally send young players to the Winter Olympics. In the first match of the tournament, the Americans celebrated success over China. They netted eight unanswered goals and experienced no problems whatsoever. Drew Commesso made 29 saves thus performing a shutout, and Sean Farrell scored a hat-trick and gave two assists. However, this probably was the easiest match of the tournament for the US national team. Today they will be put to a serious test by their Northern neighbours.
