I was rooting for Huttary, she seemed very strong in the preliminary rounds, but you've got to get over that first fucking hill...
 
:lol:

Like I told my students today-if Canada doesn't win this game we don't deserve to be in the race for gold :p
 
Anyone catch Lativa vs.the Czech Republic? Latvia, was so, so close to pullling off a tremendous upset. Latvia came back from a 2-0 deficit in the third to force OT. Then at the beginning of OT, they shot one off the glass that riccocheted back over the net, bounced off of Vokoun, and rebounded just wide of the net. :eek: So, so close.


Jagr left early in the second period and didn't return. It's an unspecified upper body injury, but the speculation was that it's related to the Ovechkin hit.
 
Yeah, the Czech got very very lucky. Norway is also giving Slovakia a hard time, it's 3-3 after two. Norway tied it with less then a second left in the second period. .D
 
I had it on, but I didn't really pay that much attention to it. I did hear them talk about Jagr, and my first thought was the hit he took the other night. I keep looking at the gifs to see if he had his head down.

Well, I'm a Lindros fan--of course my first thought is a concussion. :lol:
 
Why the hell is the US hockey game on at 3 PM today? Are you Canadian folks so pissed over Sunday still that you moved our game to a time when no one can watch?

The America's Hat jokes must be getting to them.
 
Fucking hell. Literally with the bell the Americans go 1:0 and such a stupid goal too, they didn't deserve that...
Brave match of the Swiss team so far and excellent defending, including surviving 3 or 4 penalties in the second third I think without conceding a goal.
I don't really want them to win, but I want the US team to sweat a little. The Swiss don't have the offensive power of the Americans, but they make them work hard for the victory, and the still have a chance...

eta: [SPOILER=".]Haha! No goal! :lol: That makes me happy, if the Americans want to score, shoot a real goal.[/SPOILER]
 
SWEET MOTHER OF FUCK! That timing sucked. I'm watching on my computer at work. People probably wondered why I shouted GOALLLL! and then AW SHIT! 2 minutes later.
 
I'm guessing the USA will win this game comfortably in the end - at some point a defense like that just breaks down, but I like it that Switzerland didn't make it easy for them.

eta: and here it is already. Good game, Switzerland.
