"Canada beat Finland 3-0.

Can I smoke some of what you've got?"
Oh I misread the score, my bad lol

Taylor Hall, Claude Giroux, Tyler Seguin and Joe Thornton all were not good enough to make Team Canada this year.

lol.

well I accurately predicted the first 2 games, however fuck you Moser for getting a goal with 8 seconds left in the game.

You we're suppose to win it in overtime, not with seconds left in regulation, lol

@obi - oops my bad.

"Getzlaf and Perry and Marleau. Oh my!..."

The Cali Line.

I strongly disagree with having Bergeron as a 4th line winger.

He leads the league in face off wins, with 11 more then Crosby despite being in the circle 154 less times.

He is a defensive specialist, being nominated for Selke last year and winning it the year before, defensive forwards are a lot more suited for a center position then a wing.

Bergeron was a key contributor to Pittsburgh having just 1 goal in their conference finals last year.
The lines should be:
Chris Kunitz - Sidney Crosby - Jeff Carter
Patrick Sharp - Jonathan Toews - Matt Duchene/MSL (either would be better than Nash)
Ryan Getzlaf - Patrice Bergeron - Corey Perry
Patrick Marleau - Jamie Benn - John Tavares

How Nash, who has just 27 and is only +5 makes second line, especially in front of choices like MSL, Duchene, Thornton, Lucic, Eberle, Doan, Iginla or Giroux is beyond me.

Last 6 didn't make the team. They're just 6 players I can think of who are Right wingers/centerman who are all better then Nash that I can think of on the top of my head.

3-1 Team USA against Slovakia early in the 2nd Period! :D

John Carlson, Ryan Kesler and Paul Statsny all with goals for Team USA...Patrick Kane with an assist, and Jonathan Quick's had a couple of good saves, good start!

4-1 Team USA, Backes this time, the last to touch it on a big push to the goal!

And we're just owning Slovakia now...

"Slovakia beats USA"

I don't think so, Fasces! :D Unless we collapse and in a big way...and I can't see Quick letting in 3 quick goals...

6-1 TEAM USA!

This is a good old-fashioned slaughter!

Ryan Kessel on the goal!

7-1, Dustin Brown this time...

This is fantastic, get hot, and get on a roll before we play Russia Friday!

And 7-1 is indeed the final...a great showing by the American squad all around!

BRING ON THE RUSSIANS AT BOLSHOI, BABY!

Let's wipe that smile off Ovie's face!

Good luck with that. Russia is just a teensy bit better than Slovakia. The U.S.A. are, admittedly, the best of the also-rans. Canada or Russia will win, probably Canada because we have Crosby. Sweden has an outside chance.

2-0 Canada after two, Canada is going to have to step it up if they want to remain Olympic favourites.

The first game for everyone has been very surprising, although the final results are not surprising. The smaller hockey countries (Austria, Slovenia, Norway) have played surprisingly well, despite losing.

Zetterberg's out, and Sweden is out of Gold medal contention for sure.

Zetterberg got injured? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

JEFF CARTER, natural hat trick. New scary line: Toews, centering Marleau and Carter.

"The U.S.A. are, admittedly, the best of the also-rans"

I THINK NOT!!! USA FOR THE GOLD!

Quick's as good a goalie as there is, and Ryan Miller was great 4 years ago...

And we just showed we can put the puck in the net against Slovakia...

We've got a shot to medal, at least!

Awwww Kesler got a boo-boo on his hand and he had to go to da wocker woom. Awwwwwwwww. lol.

Ugh, that last goal is killing me...bad turnover...1-0 Russia...fuck...

We need to regroup, we were doing better in the 1st period.

OMG. What a goal by Datsyuk. He splits THREE Team U.S.A. slugs and beats Quick low glove side. Russia up 1-0.

Goddamn it...the USA needs more sustained pressure and to get to more rebounds, they're getting outplayed in those parts of the game and that's the difference...

FOWLER!!!!!!! :D MY GUY!

The Anaheim Ducks' defenseman ties it up! 1-1 tie!

Kane takes a penalty with nine seconds remaining in the second. Russia will start the third period on the power play where they are lethal.

HA HA HA HA

Stupid Team U.S.A.

lol.

JVR goes for the trick shot between his legs.

Your only hope are MY TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS obi.

Phil the Thrill and JVR.

Start chanting GO LEAFS GO obi.

This game is killing me

The best thing about the olympics is how it showcases all these weird minority sports like ice hockey. You have to give them credit, though. It looks like they're really trying. Makes you wonder what they would have achieved if they played a real sport.

Oh, come off it, Octavious, hockey's one of the toughest sports there is!
