VANCOUVER: The beast is out of the cage.
It took a long-standing rivalry against the mighty Big Red Machine, but Canada finally stamped its authority on the 2010 Olympic hockey quarterfinals with a 7-3 thrashing of top seeded Russia on Wednesday.
"They were much faster than us," said Russian goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov. "They came out like gorillas out of a cage."
