Yet again, Jonas Hiller was the star of the game.
He stopped Sergei Kostitsyn to win the game for the Swiss.
For their effort, they get to play the Americans tomorrow. Yay for them!

Canada vs Germany - 8-2
Shea Weber scored a classic WTF goal, which had to be the highlight of the game.
Canada manhandled the Germans in a bad way.
The goal scored by Sidney Crosby was also pretty awesome. Who has a reaction time like that?
As Macke said, "He must be a robot." We've been saying that all along...
And Scott Niedermayer? Why did he ever want to retire? He's still got it.
PS- Dear Mike Babdick, please keep Morrow-Toews-Richards together. We hearts them together.

Czech Republic vs Latvia - 3-2 OT
David fucking Krejci won it for the Czechs in overtime. What a man.
With four minutes to go, Latvian Mikelis Redlihs tied the game.
But Tomas Vokoun was having a night.
The big story was that Jaromir Jagr played only the first period.
All Czechs around the world are cursing Alex Ovechkin.

Slovakia vs Norway
In the first period, O.K. Tollefsen elbowed Lubos Bartecko. Bartecko was taken off in a stretcher and Tollefsen was ejected from the game.
The Slovaks had a 3-0 lead.
Norway came back to tie it by the end of the second period. We had no hope for Slovakia.
But an unlikely hero emerged...Miroslav Satan. Yes, we were shocked too.
Slovakia skipped into the Quarterfinals just by the skin of their teeth.
