Great game tonight - Jean & Todd got the assists for the Adam Dixon goal.  Saw the team for a short time after the game - they are ready to take on Japan on Thursday.  Tonight was a very physical game - we were really impressed that Marc Dorion, one of the smallest guys on the team, was not afraid to take on the huge Norwegians in the corners.
Bob Nicholson and Ken Corbin attended the post-game reception tonight.  Players chose two of their supporters to honour - Carol & Stuart were presented with a package from the Province of Ontario, along with two supporters from each of the other players.
