Good start today for the US. I thought they played strong in the first and even better in the second. The Swiss seemed more interested in hitting (legally or illegally--how was that not boarding on Ryan right before his goal?) and kept turning the puck over in their zone. The good teams won't do that.
Still, and good start, and a nice +2 in the goal differential column. We need to pad that against Norway!

US Woman beating the ever living frick out of Russia right now, 9-0 half way through the 2nd period.
I'd expect us to curbstomp china, but Russia? I figured they'd have a team.

The US women's team is ranked #1 in the world.

And yeah, Norway sucks. We need to beat the shite out of them to boost our goal diff if we do end up losing to Canada.

They're certainly playing like it. But thanks for the heads up (I didn't know)

You can tell the Canadian fans are scared of the US women's hockey team. They've been cheering hard for our opponents.

Good start by the U.S. The Swiss team is decent and it's always nice to start with a W. They should have their way with Norway. Russia's group is the most interesting IMO. The combo of games between Russia, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia should be excellent. Finland/Sweden is arguably the best game of the preliminary rounds, although I've got more interest in U.S./Canada (as I'm sure most others do). I'm having a hard time figuring out how NBC is skimping on coverage; especially U.S./Canada. You don't relegate that game to a secondary channel. They're the only major network that covers hockey, and they're not doing a very good job of promoting it.

What show/sport/event of any type does NBC do a good job of promoting?

Out of fear.

The Canadians didn't seem to cheer for the US Men's opponent today, so I'd say the "fear" thing might be correct. They probably do (and should) fear our women's team more than the men.
