    2010 Winter Olympics - Quarterfinals

    JR and Milbury agreed on something! The world is ending.

    Pavs is the only one that looks any good for Russia so far. And even then, he's having a little more trouble on faceoffs than usual. Part of that may be lack of support, but still...

    2010 Winter Olympics - Quarterfinals

    It was oddly fun, and I learned that it was the right call waiting to blow the whistle when that puck was on the back of the net, too. The rule says the ref has to wait 3 seconds before he blows it dead, even if no one's trying to get it off.

    Nothing on our specific scenario yet, but there is this: I'm pretty sure I just read the whole rulebook, and can't find anything about that specific scenario.

    Ah, I didn't know you were talking just IIHF rules. I'm gonna see if I can look it up.

    No, the penalty gets called. Didn't that happen to the Wings this year? I know it happened to the Leafs at least.

    I'd be fuming right now about that really late whistle there if I were Switzerland.

    2010 Winter Olympics - Quarterfinals

    That hit made me cringe. For a split second I thought the dude broke his back or something.
  9. I haven't been this excited since Sunday
  10. Finland will put up a fight in every game they play, and I think they're a much tougher game than the Czechs. I'd much the rather the US be on the other side of the bracket and have to play Sweden (yes I know they beat the Finns, but I feel that their style of play doesn't match up as well as Finland's does). Plus I kind of have conflicting interests if the US and Finland play.

    Worked fine for me. It really looked unintentional to me, even though it was kinda disturbing. Not to sound crass (OK, well kind of to sound crass), but that's hockey. You don't like it, but you kind of expect it to happen sometimes.
  12. AO would definitely be either my 999th or 1000th 1st overall pick. I'm saying just for one playoff run, not to build a franchise around starting today.

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

    Might be my fav Downfall redo yet.
  14. Couple things: Zetterberg is not the best Swede on the Red Wings this year, and Lidstrom is not only the best Swede on the team, he's the best in the league. And furthermore, Nicklas Lidström is still the best player of any nationality playing hockey today. And yeah, I honestly, truly believe that. If I had to do a fantasy draft for the upcoming playoffs, Nick would be my #1 choice 998 times out 1000 (I'd pick 2 other guys once each just for s***s and giggles )

    And Ruutu simply owns Jagr I must agree with the QFs. Hoping for a Russia-Sweden semi on the one side.

    Joni Pitkanen, apparently.

    That was dirty as f***, but since it wasn't on a Red Wing, I'm happy to see at least something from Finland.

    Finns need to wake up and play a lot better in the 2nd. And they will. Veda kateen, hurrit.

    God Hank looks so *** in that Tre Kronor jersey. And I feel really bad saying that.

    GF must the 1st tiebreaker then, I thought it was differential. I may well have been mistaken.

    2010 Winter Olympics - Sweden vs Finland (Group C)

    Yeah, they need Sweden to win or go to OT. They're tied in goal differential right now, so any win by Finland would put them in first place.

    Hyvä Suomi! Vitun hurrit. Val's gonna tear it up. And Jarkko's gonna Ruutu-on-Jagr Forsberg.

    If you can't beat them on the scoreboard...

    Of course not. Mouthguards are for sissies.

    If you can't beat them on the scoreboard...

    Every team I've been on has locker boxed too. Do you really mean "Nobody got hurt," or "Nobody got seriously hurt," though ? Because especially in high school, guys came out bleeding every now and then. I even lost a good part of my 2 front teeth. It was still fun as hell though. Edit: Haha, nice timing. It was my Stanford interview actually. I felt like an idiot then, but now I think it's pretty damn hilarious. Maybe that's the reason I got wait-listed there, haha?

    Is women's hockey too out of whack?

    Just because goal differential means something. And it's 1000 times more boring to see a team trying NOT to score when they should be than seeing them blow the other team out.
