    Since they aren't playing topless the only way to keep it interesting is to bet it.

    Wow you guys bet woman's hockey? I never bet outside of the NHL. But, how can you bet woman's hockey? (this is a serious question)

    I meant is more like how do you break the game down. As for being bored why not discuss tonight's games and find a winner together and all make money.

    I just turned the game on, way to slow for me to watch. Are you watching this?

    In women's hockey there is only 2 teams. Canada and the U.S.

    Previous history will suggest that its going to be competitive and either team can win thats why the game is pretty much a pick em.

    I took Canada just because I am Canadian. Its not like were wagering all in on it.

    I am watching it and oh ya I will be betting on tonight's games as well along with NBA and MLB.

    This is how I broke it down. Canada is the best at mens hockey, therefor they're probably the best at womens hockey. Half a unit at -124 to make a monday afternoon go quicker.

    I wouldn't go as far as saying that. USA is just as good as CANADA in hockey. Team USA, i won't lie need some adjustments but what team does not?

    Well these are the World Championships so this and the Olympics are their biggest tourneys. Even if they play in smaller tourneys, the States and Canada dominate.

    Agreed. At the very top of the talent pool they are pretty equal.

    If there were 10 team USA's and 10 team Canada's organized in order of skill, 1 being the best, at the U-20, and professional level the 1 team's will probably split the games, but while you go down team Canada2 will probably win a couple more games than USA2, Canada3 will win a few more than USA3....and team Canada10 will probably sweep the series vs USA10.

    Pretty much every Canadian kid plays hockey....American kids play football and basketball and baseball. Canadian kids that play football, basketball or baseball have mostly all played hockey before.

    Makes a lot of sense. Just another reason why I think I was born in the wrong country. All I play is hockey, I gave baseball, and football a try and way to boring for my liking. And that is all my friends around here wanted to do growing up. I rarely see any kids out playing street hockey and if they are it is only one person shooting at a net.

    It's like pulling teeth where I am at to play hockey everyday.

    Bad defensive coverage. They let the USA d-girl pinch in on the play. Team Canada should have recognized that play, afterall I think that's where that play originated...Team USA used it against them
