Heja Sverige!

Heja Sverige!

Sweden rocks. What a great tournament for Tre Kronorna. Two golds in four Olympiads, baby.

Sundin was a beast. Zetterberg had a great two weeks too. Lundqvist was hot when necessary. Forsberg was an inspiration, playing hurt. But it was Sweden's defensemen who really stood head and shoulders above the rest, especially their European opponents -- even after Ohlund went down. Kronwall stepped in seamlessly.

I'm sorry it had to come at the expense of Switzerland and Finland. Fantastic tournaments by those two sides. But it was soooooo much fun to eliminate the Czech Republic.

Don't forget the gold in women's curling.  Also at the expense of the Swiss.
