Hey guys hope all is well back home.
Hers a quick update from worlds,
Our team "Team Canada" are 2-1 Beat the Germans, France butlost a tough one yesterday to Italy. I think Darrell Interbartolo is smiling on that one....
The USA boys are playing great as well 3-0 and have yet to be tested.. all there guys look good. Taj Is playing the best i have seen him play and ziggy is playing strong as well, Ron Tracy is having a good tourney...
As far as the style of play here the first thing I can tell you is the nets are half the size of regular nets, I am hardly kidding. Leggett and the american boys Buffalino and Lauire look like giants in there, they have to be 12 inches shorter and 12 inches closes from side to side, When I first saw them I thought they were kidding...
Crowds have been great, when the czechs play theres around 2-3000 people in the crowd, all whistling and going crazy.
The sport is received over here alot different then at home. Much different atmosphere...
The chance of a USA vs Canada final took a blow yesterday with us losing, unless france beats italy we will get the Number 2 seed and probobly end up playing the USA in the Semis. But we will see, Lots of hockey left...
As far as the town of Pizek goes, pretty nice...and hats off to them, this town 4 months ago was under 14 feet of water from a flood, the water came up to the scoreboard at the rink which works out to half way to the roof if you could imagine. so they have done a wonderful job of getting it ready..
And 1 last note, Every women over here is of super model caliber and its not even funny, talk to the boys when they get home, this place is ridiculous...
That's it for now boys, More updates to come Rich....
