Yes, I know they should be carrying over from the win Sunday, but I always fear a let down. They Cannot take the Swiss lightly or assume anything. As long as they play a full sixty minutes playing like it could be their last shifts of the tournament, they will come away victorious. As for the Canada/Russian matchup, well, Canadian fans, don't think it's going to be like beating Germany last night. I think the Russians are going to be even tougher than expected and I would not be surprised at all to see Sid knocked onto his can a few times.
