I'm not too confident about Canada's chances of winning gold again. Canada and the USA are at a disadvantage with the bigger ice surface. But here's hoping!jms said:I'm really looking forward to the hockey tournament. Its going to be hard for anybody to beat Canada. Shea Weber is playing as well as any D I have ever seen and they have better F than anybody.

The only things I see slowing them down are hot goalie or a game where they take few too many dumb penalties.
Weber Doughty
The two St Louis guys
Keith Vlasic
Subban
Put those 7 guys in any order you want no other country can match it. The forwards might not be as good as the Russians offensively but they are better two ways guys. Goalies are as good as anybody's but at least 5 countries have goalies capable of stealing a single game.

Well as a Canucks goalie, Luongo tends to get psyched out pretty easily. I'm always concerned about how he'll do. When he's hot he's hot, and while he held it together for the Olympic final in 2010, he has choked so many times in his NHL games because he's not exactly psychologically solid when things get tight. Most Vancouverites don't have all that much faith in him anymore, but hope for the best and cross our fingers and toes.With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

Technically it is the proper way to 'release'. (not exactly what that dude in the middle right is doing, but similar)PJ_Soul said:^^^ That is very restrictive! (I have known someone who actually does the middle right thing

I really thought/hoped he was going to piss his pants in the gold medal game in 2010 but he did ok. You're right I could see him falling apart vs the Russians but I really think with the D you have they should really limit the pressure on Luongo. I still think it's a better team if they find a place for St Louis and take Seabrook instead of Hamhuis but I have never been a huge Dan Hamhuis fan so I'm probably a little biased.0

I didn't mention China - just shaking my head at ol' Russia.0

Lol, no, I know you didn't mention China; I wasn't meaning that as a direct reply to you. I was just saying that China wasn't any better, meaning to say that this isn't anything new. In other words, the IOC really doesn't seem to mind choosing hosts with terrible human rights records and a tendency to kill stray dogs.hedonist said:I didn't mention China - just shaking my head at ol' Russia.

For the ridiculous amount of money spent on these Olympics, you'd think they would at least be ready. They're still working on hotels??? I have a feeling these olympics are going to be a clusterfuck.0

It looks like the Men's Final will be at 4am on Sunday, Feb 23rd. That is perfect! We can drink all morning (or Saturday night and Sunday morning, depending on your stamina), have a nap, be hungover all Sunday afternoon, and be totally fine for bedtime and Monday morning work time. It's like the Hockey and Booze gods got together and came up with a plan. :-bd <:-P Of course, this will obviously only work for Canadians, since they will be playing Russia in the final.Empty Glass said:Drinking at 7:30 am to watch the US Hockey team is going to be rough.
