They're from many countries including Russia, USA, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Belarus and Canada. The (Les) Canadiens are Montreal's NHL franchise.

Canadian's are people from Canada, and in this context The Canadian's are the team you're most likely to meet on Sunday in the gold medal game.

That would actually be funny to watch considering the media flap that would follow after the women did it last night. Hockey Canada'd be some pissed let me tell you

Aren't there more important things to get pissed about. It wasn't like there were people in the arena. I read they had been called back out on the ice after the fans had been cleared out for a picture and hung out for awhile afterwords. So it was kind of an extension of the locker room at that point in the sense it was closed to fans. You would think from the uproar that the stands were packed with impressionable ten year olds.

I don't have a problem with anything the women did. Minus the cigars it's not like that exact same scene doesn't happen every night in every hockey rink in this country. Hockey Canada had to issue an public apology despite the fact that they probably also had no issue with it. However if the men's team were to do the same thing on Sunday after all the flap surrounding the women Hockey Canada would be pissed, and rightly so, at the men's team intentionally putting them in an embarrassing position with the IOC and media.

On another note, 6-1 final...... congratulations to Team USA on winning the Olympic silver medal
