One of the big contests to watch is to see who's going to win THIS YEAR's Hockey Championship. Finland took 3rd in both the women's and men's matches, in 2010. The Finnish women beat out Sweden in overtime at the last performance to take bronze and the US experienced a major upset by the Home Turf Canucks, who ended up with gold! Let the contest BEGIN!!!
