Vancouver Olympics Discussion

[Malleus]

I'm at a loss of words only this far into the game.

 

[kathryn i am]

Come on, Canada! Get your sticks on the puck!

 

[Trippy]

Well, we've had 3 times as many shots on goal! I think Team Canada's strategy is to wear down the American goalie

 

[kathryn i am]

I hope that strategy works for them!

I'm so fucking glad I get to see this game live. No thanks to NBC though.

HOW? All I have is the ESPN scoreboard. Third period is going to be the money.

It's on MSNBC

Gah. No cable!

At least NBC streamed some stuff for Beijing, but it's all "premium content" now.

USA! USA! USA!
Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[PlainSimpleJoel]

Been watching this game here in Australia. Ice Hockey isn't a popular sport here. The American goalie (or whatever you call him) has been amazing.

Hacksaw Jim Duggan is NEVER a jinx!

USA 5
CAN 3

Woo! And NBC broke away from ice dancing to show the last 38 seconds live!

 

[the 4th hanson bro]

That was an incredible game.

The first time in 50 years that the US has beaten Canada in the Olympics.

A tweet from DownGoesBrown (a die-hard Leafs fan)...

"This game was the best advertisement for hockey you could ever imagine, and NBC didn't show it. Gary Bettman must have his head in an oven."

Well said, sir.

He didn't

Brodeur Sucked!

Nothing
But
Crap

 

[AdmiralGarak]

Here's to that being the end of it! We have to beat the Yanks tomorrow

Don't get cocky now, USA. It's still a long way to the podium.

But for now... USA! USA! USA!

Awesome av! Sit down, old man!

I watched it on CNBC or MSNBC, whichever one it was on.

Bettman is speaking now about Olympics in Russia

 

[Trippy]

That pile up was pretty funny-three big Canadians!

*sigh* so we have to go through a few more hoops for the semi then.

Our ice dancers are on top so far by 3 points!
