Chinese Women Play Ice Hockey?

Apparently not very well....


I can't decide if I'm more surprised that the Chinese were able to field a womens Olympic ice hockey team or that the US Women's team beat them 12-1 in the preliminary round.  

On Monday's PTI episode Wilbon and Kornheiser debated whether Women's ice hockey should even be in the Olympics because Canada and USA continue to completely dominate the other countries.  At first I thought the whole debate was total crap but after seeing the scores of some of these US and Canada games....yeah, they might have a point.  12 goals to 1 is pretty bad, but check out the shots on goal statistic of this USA vs. China game:

USA 61 shots...China 7 shots.   7!!  7!
