    2010 Winter Olympics - Quarterfinals

    Pavs has had a rough tournament, he hasn't gelled with Ovechkin or Kovalchuk. I don't know, it seems like having a pure sniper with Datsyuk doesn't really work, even when Hossa was here and scored 40 goals then didn't seem to really click well together, not even close to what he and Hank had when they were great.

    This game is over. Powerful showing from Canada. And Nabby is getting the Patrick Roy treatment it seems...

    Well, they've got the right coach, but I think the rest of the team is a little bit better than the usual choke artists.

    Greasy goal, that one might do it.

    Oh my goodness, Nabokov.

    I'm going to hazard a guess that these are some recently departed, good friends of ours. In any event, Canada's intensity is way higher than Russia's right now.

    Team USA has a real nice path to the gold-medal game

    I'm not sure if I like what you're suggesting there, mister.

    What a nail-biter. Sure don't make things easy, do they?

    NBC camera angle was pretty definitive, puck was still on the line at all zeroes, no goal.

    This game is killing me. Hiller does nothing but bring me anguish, no matter the uniform, I wish he would go away.

    Yeah, and who should be named captain when Yzerman retires???

    2010 Winter Olympics - Qualification Round

    Well, they do have to play tomorrow. As neato as it would be for USA in this particular situation to benefit from a quintuple overtime game, brevity is a virtue in such a compacted tournament.

    Wings will dominate after Olympics

    I sure hope so, we're all already at one another's throats over what side of the 49th parallel you were born on, I'd hate to see all that ill-will channeled onto the Wings if they keep losing.

    Doc Emrick's call of Kesler's game ender

    He might've been a bit winded since this was on the heels of him literally running out of breath calling the frantic action in USA's end late in the game. Great call, great goal, great moment. Michigan delivered in this game.

    Ryan Miller

    I will vote for Ryan Miller in every election.

    My Olympic Nightmare

    That bracket is a beautiful thing. Very likely only the Czechs/Finns stand in USA's way of getting to the gold medal game.

    2010 Winter Olympics - Sweden vs Finland (Group C)

    I haven't been very impressed by Hank so far in these Olympics; he seems slow and lacking any creativity offensively, just like he was since he came back from the shoulder problem. He's been the go-to guy for defensive match ups and the PK so that obviously hasn't changed for him, but while Sweden might not need him to score much, Detroit will when he returns. Franzen has been great though, bulling his way to the net and letting that wicked wrister fly, just as I had hoped.

    Well, I don't much like the sound of that. O, how my allegiances are torn thus.

    Rafalski

    Should've been the Cup-winning goal, would have been perfect. Oh well, he delivered in the next game, too.

    Rafalski

    Wouldn't it just be the damnedest thing if he did all of that while he was wearing red and white? But I can't complain. Go for gold, chrome dome!

    2010 Winter Olympics - Canada vs United States (Group A)

    My ******* god, what an incredible finish. I couldn't breathe for that full minute Canada had the puck in USA's zone and were just firing shot after shot. Kesler's diving ENG was a beauty. Rafalski is a beauty. Ryan Miller is the new president of the United States. What a game. This is what hockey's all about.

    The article says it's airing delayed on NBC, which is correct, even though it should be the marquee matchup to be shown on the big network. It's not being shown on delay on MSNBC.
