How the fuck do you lose a hockey game 82-0?

So at what point during an 82-0 loss in a women's ice hockey game (http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/08092008/58/worst-team-international-sport.html) do you turn to your buddy and say, "C'mon, finish your popcorn and let's beat the traffic?"
Because Slovakia led Bulgaria 31-0 after the first period (http://stats.iihf.com/Hydra/166/IHW166907_74_4_0.pdf) (.pdf) of their 2010 Winter Olympics women's ice hockey qualifier over the weekend in the Latvian town of Liepaja. After two periods, they led 55-0. If you're Bulgarian and still in the arena during the third period, chances are you're either one of the players or someone who also refuses to leave the worst movie ever made because you paid "good money" for the ticket.
The 82-0 defeat (http://www.iihf.com/home-of-hockey/news/news-singleview/article/slovakia-advances-in-olympic-qualifier.html?tx_ttnews%5BbackPid%5D=955&cHash=a6eed877b8) capped what may have been the most pathetic tournament appearance in international hockey history (http://www.iihf.com/channels0809/olympic-qual-women/group-a.html).
....
Bulgaria lost to Italy (41-0) and Latvia (39-0), and it followed its 82-0 loss with a 30-1 defeat to Croatia (who obviously must address its defensive shortcomings before Vancouver in 2010). In total, Bulgaria's women's ice hockey team surrendered more goals in four games (192) than the Detroit Red Wings (http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/teams/det/) did in 82 games last season (184).

The goalie still had 57 saves. LOL.
